Shinigiwa Satellite – Kansen Fragile
Guitar is in Drop D, bass tabbed in 5-string C Standard CEADG.
I’m sure the bass is easier to play on a D-tuned bass, however.
You know, I posted two Shinigiwa Satellite songs already, but this was the first one I started, and the last of these three I finished. Huh. The vocal harmonies were giving me trouble, so I put this song aside.
I transcribed the lyrics to this song; I had kafka-fuura look over my work. Read the lyrics here.
I really like Shinigiwa Satellite, not only for their music but because of their attitudes, haha. Like, “Oh, we don’t give a shit what anyone thinks, so we’re gonna record some songs (in audibly subpar quality) (I could write a whole post about the evolution of Shinigiwa musically and qualitatively as far as sound is concerned) and get in these events like IDGAF!” I enjoy that aesthetic. It’s very punk rock. As for their music… their good songs are either really good, but otherwise they’re just okay. Which isn’t bad! There are a few other songs by them I’ll probably end up tabbing.
EDIT: I fixed the tab… there were some very obvious mistakes… that I somehow missed. I blame it on me having less experience with music in general, though there’s really no excuse. Apologies to the 38 people who downloaded the tab and were disgusted, and the countless others who were given that tab through PMs and such that were also disgusted. It’s quite embarrassing, actually.
Putting the tonal mistakes aside, I mistaken tabbed it this song at tempo 116 instead of 232BPM. The song is the same, but 16th kicks were tabbed as 32nd kicks and well… it’s basically semantics, but it would’ve been better to tab at 232BPM.
The album that this song is on is actually probably my least favorite. It was the first album where Shinigiwa added female vocals, and well… this song was pretty good, but I didn’t like the other two. Still, Dark Castle EP (that Seijaku Last Dance blew me away) and on it feels like they’ve been steadily improving (recording quality even).
At the same time I still miss when Ei-Seitarou was doing all the vocals. (I proudly snatched the demo version of 焦燥ジェノサイド…)
So. 戦慄オルレアン (The Ghost in My Room EP) next right?
Huh, I think this EP is really solid. I think I like 灼炎メルトダウン almost as much (if not more than) this song.
I’ve read about these mystical Ei-Seitarou demos… apparently there are demos for Tsuioku Disaster and Kansen Fragile as well? I’d like to get my hands on those just to hear them, haha.
I’ll be getting around to Senritsu Orleans and Chousou Region (am I reading that right? レギオン?) sometime; Shinigiwa Satellite songs aren’t hard to figure out if these three songs were any indication. Really, I’ll probably get around to almost all of their songs eventually.
I can´t download the tab :(
Sorry, I broke the link when I updated weeks ago. It should be fixed now.
Thanks for pointing it out.
