So I’m looking for keyboard tabs (metal) all over the net, only to find that the ONE metal “synth” site no longer exists ANYwhere!
I think, the first incarnation, can be found advertised on some older tabs: http://synthoblivion.cjb.net/
eventually became http://www.synthoblivion.net/
which I think redirected to: http://www.jeka.org/oblivion/
“here”:http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&rls=RNWE%2CRNWE%3A2005-01%2CRNWE%3Aen&q=site%3Awww.jeka.org%2Foblivion%2F is the google list of cached pages, rather sad really…
Please let me know if you know anything about this! Or if you know of other good places to find metal tabs (it says they had HAGGARD tabs!!! I want them!!!!!) (and no, taborama et al. do NOT count)
EditUPDATE!!! I used google’s cache to find the haggard tab!!
See the cache “here”:http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:XVtkpkKhDnkJ:jeka.org/oblivion/index.php%3Ftab%3Dhaggard-awaking_the_centuries.txt+&hl=en
I used the following google searches, which should be useful for anyone trying to get content from a site that is now dead, but was around long enough for google to index it (and I assume google will toss the index after a period of time, so that’s another factor, that it only died recently… but some of those caches are old, from March or July…) anyways:
GOOGLE DIGGGGGGGING
site to dig:http://jeka.org/oblivion
- [Google]_www.jeka.org/oblivion/
- then looked at cache, copied link for haggard tabs…
- [Google]_http://jeka.org/oblivion/tabs_haggard.shtml
- look at cache, google the link to the tab file itself…
- [Google]_http://jeka.org/oblivion/index.php?tab=haggard-awaking_the_centuries.txt
- And of course get the cache for that, which is the file we want: hooray!
That’s all for now…

Wow! This helped me so much, it’s so hard to find metal keyboard tabs/notes on the net, although it takes a little while to get the info this is the biggest source of keyboard tabs I’ve seen so far. Thanks!
Ps. Why did the site even get closed down?
Hi.
Alsvarth speaking here.
I am one of the founders of the now deceased Synth Oblivion site.
The reason for its demise was that none of the staff had time to write new tabs or to even maintain the site. Studies and other dutys simply take too much time.
I would be more than happy to donate all my tabs to anyone who wants to start a similar page.
Cheers
Btw, it seems that the site is still available here:

Thanks for the link Alsvarth
I made a couple of posts on the synth oblivion forum way back.
