METAL TAB UPDATE!

By the time you read this I will have uploaded an incredible 38 MEGS of tablatures (guitar) to my resuscitated tablature site (now hosted here with a nifty auto-index PHP script which I still need to tweak a bit, but it does the job). I had an old archive of tabs from a previous site, and decided to throw them up alongside the tabs I’d started posting in recent days. I’ve added them to a separate directory just so I can stay sane, but I may combine them at a later date… And they’re pretty much all Text files (I have a separate folder full of GuitarPro files that I’ll be uploading soon as well).

Enjoy…!

I’m still shocked there aren’t sites that have all these files that are easy to use… The only site I can consistently find tabs with is 911tabs.com, but its just a tab search engine, and it’s slow, and gives results only as links to other pages, not all of which are easy to navigate/download from.

And of course METALtabs is alright, but you can’t really download from them without going crazy, since all the files are named like 84472.txt and even the site structure itself uses whack urls like /band/14 for Opeth, instead of /band/opeth which would be much more user-friendly. Ah, someday I’ll get around to making a better one.

EDIT: OH, and the link is: http://apoc.buildtolearn.net/tabs/ Down for now…

Jon Nödtveidt of Dissection Commits Suicide

Bravewords.com > News

Swedish sources have confirmed to BW&BK that Jon Nödtveidt, frontman for Swedish metal pioneers DISSECTION, has committed suicide.

More details are expected in the coming hours. Stay tuned for updates as further information surfaces.

In late May, Nödtveidt announced in the band’s final interview that “With Reinkaos (their latest album) we have reached the ending chapter. Dissection’s work is done and this is our legacy.”

Shit.

What!!! Sweeeet. Though it kind-of defeats the purpose of getting a tattoo to begin with, I’m sure tattoo “purists” would take issue with this whole thing…
