Embodiment

Tune your guitar 2.5 steps down (i.e. Low E --> lower B etc.). (Thanks Brian) Make sure the Distortion is on full. You're gonna need it.

Lyrics: ******* Verse 1: I bow down (before) your precious icon, Deity of self suppression. This effigy of flesh. corporeal christi. Nailed!!!!!!!!!! In submission to this falst idol. Seeking deliverance!!!!!!! >From this spiritual hierarchy. Downward spiralling. a Corrupt throne. Of repression and guilt. Our will be done. Thy kingdom burns. Verse 2: On my knees, before this tormented flesh, in irreverence. In communion with this parasitic host of virtuous divinity. This immperious creed bears testament to the failures of our Mortality. Rightous durance is our cross we bear in stations. In stations of the lost. Our will be done. Thy kingdom burn. Thy kingdom burn. Our will be done. >From your knees arise. By your own hand, your got (that) you scribe. The earth shall inherit the meek. Your god is dead. (Lead - Michael Abbot) Verse 3: Bound down. In god we're trussed. foul stature. Icons embodied in flesh. We nail. In servitude to deities fashioned in our self image. Shadows of eternal strife cast by those who serve. Serve a crown of pawns. (Lead - William Steer). Lyrics by Jeff Walker. Music by Michael Abbot and William Steer. From: <aviad@kids-mail.huji.ac.il> Solos for "Embodiment" by Carcass Transcribed by Aviad Hay - mail me if you disagree. I am happy to say that a lot of people posted me after the embodiment TAB. Those people are true Carcass fans and the solos are mainly for them. (That's for you Evan, PRIMOZ and the rest). I hadn't had them on files and I didn't quite found them all before - so, see what trouble I went through. First Solo by Michael Abbot. Use Wah-Wah when needed. Use Digital delay effect on Medium. This is just one of the Solos on heartwork where Michael Use the wah-wah in an elastrious dimension. |------------------------------------------- h ---------- h ------- h ------| |----/------------------------------------15---17-17---15---17---15---17-17-| |--12---------------------16--12--------------------------------------------| |---------14--12--14--12----------14----------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------15-------- h -- p -- p --------------------------------------| |--15--17--19------19--17---19---17---15----17-15-----17-20-17-17-20-17-17--| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| /\/\ /\/\/\/\ |-----------------19--------------------------------------------19----------| |--20-17-20-17-17-----------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------16--14---------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------17--16--17--16-----17-16-14----------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| Second solo by Bill Steer. Vibrato is on. Note: There is string bending almost on every ending tone - just do it with a feeling (of death) |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |----/\/---/\/--------------------------------------------------------------| |--17----12----16------------h--p--p----------------------------------------| |------------------18--17--17-18-17-15---18--17--15------------h--p---------| |----------------------------------------------------18--17--17-18-17-------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------15----------------h--p-------------------------------| |--15--14-----15--18-------18--17--18--17-18-17---18-17-15-14---------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------16---13------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------h--p--------| |-------------------------------------------------12-13-15-13-12-13-12------| |------------------------------12-13-15-13-12-13-----------------------15---| |-------------13-15---11----15----------------------------------------------| |--15---13-15---------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------19-15-16-15-------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------18-16-15-16---/\/\------| |--12----------h--p------/\/\/\---------------------------------16----------| |-----15-13--12-13-12--10---------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| |--22-19-20-19-------------------------------------------------h--h----| |--------------20-17---/\/\---------------------------h--h---12-13-15--| |--------------------19-------------h--h-----h--h---10-11-13-----------| |----------------------------------9-10-12-12-14-15--------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------| |----p--p-------------------------------------------| |--15-13-12---p--p----------------------------------| |-----------13-11-10---p--p-----p--p----/\/\/\/\/\--| |--------------------15-14-12-12-10-9--9------------| |---------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------| I'm not sure about that last part. Bill is just hard to figure out. Anyway - a tip: On the Steer Solo - use a lot of vibrato banding - listen to the solo a lot to get the feeling. Well It's 4 in the morning. I better get some sleep. See ya all Death fans.
