War Of Being - Tesseract (ON-SCREEN TABS) (BRAND NEW SONG 2023) (ONE-TAKE COVER)

tesseract class 101
FINALLY, they've released a single after months of knowing they were done mixing the album.
This song is every type of TesseracT riff and groove put into one song, and it's awesome, super strong single to start out with!
Now this is an 11 minute technical song in one-take so there are a few spots which could be better, however I'm pretty sure I got the notes right in terms of the tab!
There are 2 clean guitar parts which sound like slap, that I didn't actually play in this cover because of switching tones manually, and also how difficult the parts are to make out.
TUNING NOTE: I've never seen anyone ever do something like this, at least not with a semi-tone only, but Tesseract seems to have dropped the low-string by one semi-tone in drop A for whatever reason, and I can find examples in the music video for the skeptics out there
If you enjoy what I do and want to support me, then I would really appreciate it, if you hit the subscribe button to help grow this channel, thanks!

TesseracT released a playthrough! kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4bOo5xuf7Fqj6s

[@Jag____]

Can’t get the opening riff out of my head. This band has made such a comeback with this track and you nailed it!

[@Fqbbp]

Beauty! 👏

[@Mth482]

Wow!! Nice tone n playing dude! You’ve earned the like! It’s so good to see other people using Studio One as their DAW of choice.

[@LiamThomason-ij8ti]

hey! Where’s my Metallica! Jk but hope the last ones coming soon!

[@swantonbomb68]

How do you manage to tab the song, learn it and post a video so fast ? good job man !

[@michaelguse2467]

Respect....

[@oTEMPE5To]

I am finding 2:20 to be the hardest part of the song to play tbh lol. Its your classic 0-2-3 , but the picking pattern is hard for me to wrap my head around LOL. Guess I shouldnt have taken a 10 year break from guitar, then decide I have to learn this

[@TheEternalFlavour]

Try and think of it as always ending on an upstroke, that's what helped me, just kind of trust your picking hand

[@mellamoignacio]

dude this was an insanely fast and good cover, congrats! also side note, Im pretty sure the tuning TesseracT uses is G#FA#D#FA#D# , same as they do with Acceptance, Eclipse, Survival and Smile among others, unless they did something special for this one

[@TheEternalFlavour]

I considered that tuning but that also didn't fit with the music video

[@mellamoignacio]

@@TheEternalFlavour you're probably right, I noticed watching James fingers on the first riff but wasn't sure

[@Paajanenae]

@@TheEternalFlavour Actually I think it's Drop-A but with a low G# and also a D# (E dropped down a half step). If you pause the music video at 0:39 you can see that James moves down to the seventh fret for the extended triplet stuff and that only makes sense if that string is dropped down a half step too. That, and the open palm mutes sound wrong with your tuning in the first riff. Great job on the cover anyway, it's a monumental undertaking!

[@TheEternalFlavour]

@@Paajanenae Oh yea could make sense, the chugs always sounded a bit odd, but I just figured the E didn't cut through that much but it was still there in the song

[@Blomm11]

Meget bra!!

[@LloydBuckmanGuitar]

I haven’t made it through the entire track yet because I keep replaying the disgusting riff at 3:30 … these guys are great. Nice playing. 3:33

[@qerzuk]

i can imagine they only tuned the lowest string a half step down because they got inspired by vildhjarta

[@MaestroKatProductions]

Hey, props to you on covering this so fast! Regarding the tuning, Vildhjarta used a similar tuning but 4 steps down for most of their Masstaden under vatten album.

[@BrianKrahe]

I just wanted to say thank you so much for inspiring me to learn this tune and making is SO easy to play along with the tabs

[@padpai_]

wow! you're fantastic! thank you for introducing me to this great band i love your content!!

[@joroo62]

Great video man. The riff @ 2:20, when I heard the song, I wondered how they got that guitar tone? Just switch to the neck pickup, but it sounds so processed and cool.

[@TheEternalFlavour]

Should just be a bridge split coil sound I think

[@Vall619]

@@TheEternalFlavour it is actually neck split coil

[@TheEternalFlavour]

@@Vall619 Oh fair enough

[@Vall619]

Amazing job dude!

[@csnrock]

The reason for the long silence is clear. ffs.. Psycho riffs, great cover.

[@retrospectreubie]

YEAAAA 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@flufficornss]

using a 59 on a G# is crazy to me i need high tension so it just boggles me

[@Nickshreds890]

holy crap that is so heavy!! Wow! I've only seen the intro so far but your playing is amazing!! :) I'll be watching this over and over just out of curiosity. Awesome playing!

[@Vampboi666]

When will you do Inamorata by Metallica?

[@TheEternalFlavour]

It might be next on the list, but still no planned dates

[@Vampboi666]

Great job on the cover! Sounds fantastic

[@8080Ace]

Flawless 🤘🤘

[@wavewithus4081]

Could anyone break down the section starting at 2:20? -edit- I think I got it and it's easiest for me to feel it as loops with groups of 4, 4, 6 and 7. The 4th repetition has an extra group of 4, and the last repetition is just 3 groups of 4 before starting the whole sequence again.

[@TheEternalFlavour]

I have my way of thinking about it, but if you got it nice

[@wavewithus4081]

@@TheEternalFlavour I'm not 99% sure but I think it works for me. I'm interested in how you approach it tho! I recorded my left and right hand and synced it to yours lol and it's the same -tho do I dare say I think you fumbled the timing of the first notes in that section a bit? :p I also for some reason have a hard time starting that section at the right moment-. Maybe I need to relisten today or maybe there's some funky extra pause or over-the-bar silence that makes it awkward start the pattern Also great video dude, I'm really enjoying learning the song off of the tab and watching your fingers. I really appreciate the video, the time it takes you to learn, record, tab and edit these.. much thanks

[@TheEternalFlavour]

@@wavewithus4081 I absolutely stumbled the start of that riff, switching pickup and tone was a bit too difficult to do for it. The timing for when it starts should be fairly straight forward, it's like 1.5 beats, try and count that 3/4 part like 6 hits

[@wavewithus4081]

​@@TheEternalFlavourhahah I only noticed because I hyperfocused on that section for a bit and got confused. Nothing is ever perfect but this video comes pretty close. Thanks again for the content and for the replies, I just finished learning the whole thing. This song is filled with cool riffs and grooves, incredibly fun stuff to play and figure out the timings of. You rock dude, have a good day!

[@trfmusic902]

Awesome 🔥🔥🔥

[@pozeray_rec]

Give me please guitar presets 😅

[@TheEternalFlavour]

Everything with tones and mixing, I've thrown over to my Patreon!

[@jazzman2523]

propagandhi also uses this tuning, kinda, just on a six string (C Ab Db Gb Bb Eb) really cool to see other bands utilizing it!

[@ultimatefunktimegroovystan7885]

That was fast

[@immortalcoils93]

I just got a drop A specific Ibanez the other day. I'm so glad you have these tabs. I love this! ❤

[@forthelove0god]

Holy shit what a fucking masterpiece of a song - and great cover by you!

[@georgkristiansen5892]

awesome job man! your tabs and playtrough helped me a lot on this one :)

[@AaronMoller]

I've been jamming this for hours on 50% hoping to get as clean as yours.

[@Vampboi666]

Will u do the song Inamorata by Metallica at somepoint?

[@TheEternalFlavour]

I made a new community post

[@TheEternalFlavour]

And it will be in the next 2 days

@TheEternalFlavour ok kool. I can't wait to see^^ will u do the 3 guitar harmony solo too^^

[@TheEternalFlavour]

@@Vampboi666 I did the most important harmony in my opinion
