Smiling at Confusion

I’m still here!

Sorry I haven’t been around much lately! I’ve had lots of time but I’ve been focusing my musical efforts in the last few months on the piano instead of guitar and other artists. But I’m not abandoning this site. I’d like to pick up the guitar some more and tab some songs I’ve learned before I forget them. It’s my way of getting them out so I don’t have to remember them or relearn them. Likely songs are confusion, satyricon instrumental and true love… as these are ones i know pretty well that also get requested a lot. Anyway, I’ve also wanted to thank everyone for being cool since I switched over to the new site. It’s funny how the trolls disappeared.

New Tab: Placeholder

Okay so I did a quick tab for placeholder. I think these are the correct chord voicings. I didn’t tab out all the picking but it’s sort of that strum/pick thing that elliott did a lot. I think if you follow the chords and listen to the record you’ll figure the right hand out.

New Cover: Placeholder

So I did a cover of Placeholder last night after my roomates went to bed and the house was quiet. This is one of my favorite Either/Or era songs. Let me know what you think:

New Tab: Suicide Machine

Hey everyone. I did a quick tab for the newly leaked Suicide Machine. It’s pretty simple. It’s difficult to be really accurate without any acoustic versions of this song out there because it’s hard to hear the chord voicings… but I think these are the right chords. Let me know what you think.

P.S. There were some sensitivities with Elliott’s family and the leak of this song. Because of this, the original leaker has requested that all public download links be taken down. Any comments with a download link or requesting a link will not be approved. Thanks.

I decided to reformat the site and get a proper domain name. This new site is meant to be more of a community thing. Let me know what you think. Also, notice that you can leave comments on each of the pages for a particular tab. If you want to request a tab, just post a comment on the Requests page. I hope you enjoy the new setup but you can still see the old page if you prefer it.
