Rage Against the Machine--Calm Like A Bomb. Tabbed by john victor--shilohbritt@aol.com. ok people----if you felt the funk blast when hearing this little ditty, learn these tabs its all 100% correct. the guitar is in Drop A tuning (yes down 6 1/2 steps from E). You gott have a whammy pedal for this. set those XP100's to patch 14 (up two octaves) ------------ while tremelo picking the B note push the --12 (trem.) pedal up untill fully compressed at the ------------ riff. im not gonna list the incriments ------------ in which it rises----you dont need to ------------ duplicate the song THAT much. ------------ ok that riff that sounds like a bass is this (remember---its in drop A) ---------------------------------------- this riff ---------------------------------------- even the 1 ---------------------------------------- & 1/2 step ---------------------------------------- bend is ---------------------------------------- simple. -2--2--0---2---2--0--2(bu-1 1/2 steps--- ok--grab out those wah wah's ok play this with wah fully compressed and whammy pedal OFF ------------------------ ------------------------ ------------------------ ------------------------ --2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2- (all in even 32 note beat) ------------------------ OK NOW... that heavy korn style riff ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------(pretty ------------------------------------------- damn -0h2-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x(etc.)-0-2p0----------- simple) -0h2-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x(etc.)-0-2p0--2--2---5- Ok the solo--now this is the part where there are 100 adaptations--my fave involves a sucession of rapid hammers and pulls (shredding) so you can improvise or create a simple version for your style (its in the key of G--[2 sharps]) ----------------------------- then..------------ -12p0-0h12-12p0-0h12(etc.)--- -12-12-8--12-12-7- ----------------------------- ------------------ ----------------------------- ------------------ ----------------------------- ------------------ ----------------------------- ------------------ OK NOW USE PATCH 13 (8va) TO CONSTANTLY RISE 6 STEPS THEN DESCEND----ALL WITH THOSE BASIC RIFFS. im not gonaa transcribe the whole damn solo--i think i saw in a mag that the official tab book for TheBattleOfLosAngeles just came out so check it out if you want NOTE FOR NOTE shit. but i would go by this...after its FREE.
