| __________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:19pm - niccolai ""] when he sais dropped c, I don't think he means from that tuning, just dropped c is a common name for C tuning... and also, you must use like a 13-15 guage string to tune that low on a six, do you have a baratone? |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:26pm - honor4death ""] no we tune to A, we dont have any C tuning.... |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:26pm - honor4death ""] so it would be A E A D G B like tuning to dropped D...just A |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:42pm - dyingmuse ""] shroud is in B |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:42pm - swamplorddvm ""] I really don't understand this lingo. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:45pm - Kalopsia ""] dropped tuning is not another way to call it C tuning or anything like that. drop tuning is your lowest string is tuned one full step lower than the rest of your strings are. for example, standard tuning is E,A,D,G,B,E. dropped D tuning is D,A,D,G,B,E. the only thing that changed was the E string was tuned down a full step. it's the same way for any other type of dropped tuning. so i don't what the fuck you guys are talking about. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:49pm - swamplorddvm ""] I know the drop stuff. But the're talking about drop c a d b and what not. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:53pm - dyingmuse ""] B is B E A D F# B |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:54pm - swamplorddvm ""] Is there really any need for that kind of tunning? |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:54pm - swamplorddvm ""] tuning* |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:54pm - dyingmuse ""] i use 7 string strings. throw out the high E so its still in 5th's |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:55pm - swamplorddvm ""] ah |
| __________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:56pm - Aegathis ""] swamplorddvm said:Is there really any need for that kind of tunning? Yea if your in Exhumed , fleshgrind, or fleshcrawl, or even Krisiun. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:57pm - Aegathis ""] Coffin Birth currently uses D tuning, not drop d. Leukorrhea switches back and fourth between D tuning and Drop C. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 8:57pm - swamplorddvm ""] well Drop D I guess. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 9:07pm - Sinistas ""] Dreaded Silence tunes to D. |
| _______________________________ [Aug 22,2004 9:47pm - Hoser ""] Hand Choke Neck: Standard tuning down a whole step, drop C |
| __________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 9:53pm - Kalopsia ""] swamplorddvm said:Is there really any need for that kind of tunning? the lower the tuning, the _______ it sounds. fill in the blank with any of these words: heavier angrier more aggressive darker you get the idea |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 10:06pm - niccolai ""] I'm not going to say 'plenty of heavy, angry, aggressive, dark songs have been written in standard tuning' but I'm sure someones going to try and argue with that. |
| _______________________________ [Aug 22,2004 10:45pm - Blue ""] i tune to drop d bitch. its all about the chug. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 10:47pm - Bradness ""] Kevorkians tunes a half step up from standard tuning Continued tunes to B and the Gunmen tune to whatever guitar is in tune with itself |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 10:49pm - swamplorddvm ""] It can be done. |

| _______________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 11:05pm - swamplorddvm ""] Word I'm actually glad to see people talking about MAKING the music. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 22,2004 11:05pm - assuck ""] i didnt read this whole thing, because in the state of mind im in at the moment, it seemed confusing. so i dont know if anyone already said this, but abhorred tunes to C# |

| ___________________________________ [Aug 23,2004 12:03am - powerkok ""] HCN is drop c all the time. I used to play E and D but then I heard Carcass in 92 or so, and switched immediatley. pre-gay Carcass, that is....descanting the insalibrious is the shit. |

| ______________________________________ [Aug 23,2004 1:24am - swamplorddvm ""] Me to That one kicks ass. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 23,2004 1:40am - powerkok ""] you damn kids always like the crap!!! J/K heartwork like woverine blues by Entombed, was the biggest sell out death metal ever saw, back in the day. I can see why ppl would like it now, but going from descanting, to heartwork was a HUGE letdown in my, and ALOT of older death metal fans eyes....but hey whatevuh! If u like it, u like it, and I dont, and we still are wicked pissah!! |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 23,2004 1:43am - swamplorddvm ""] Well I can see why that no love lost song is kinda tame (radio worthy almost) but I do like that album. some really good riffs and solos. |

| _____________________________________ [Aug 23,2004 9:18am - christraper ""] Standard tuning somewhere around "e". we really dont care as long as we're in tune to each other |
| _________________________________ [Aug 23,2004 9:23am - Siberia ""] For 5 Minutes Hate, Brad uses a 5 string bass (BEADG) and Dan uses a 7 string (BEADGBE) and I use a 6 string (BEADF#B) |
