Tuning is Std Eb
Another redo off the Load album. This time King Nothing gets the special treatment it craved years ago.
The original video I did way back was lacking in a lot of departments and I was not aware of the isolated tracks that existed for it back then. So I dug into them this time round and discovered a few things that you don't really hear in the final studio master. For one, I redid all the drums and used a different drum program to get a stronger present sound. The previous drum sound I used was too weak and I had very little knowledge back then of how to create a proper sound and fill the room.
In regards to the Rhythm sections, the isolated guitars have a few extra sections in them that is almost not audible when you listen to the studio recording as a whole, but they fill in the entire song very well and I had to include ALL the guitars this time. The main verse riff seems to be tabbed out on the internet incorrectly and most of the lessons or tabs show it as a 6 5 3 tail. While Metallica plays the main riff like this live, the do not play it the same on the recording. The 3 only get's used as the tail end of the riff every 4th time it loops.
I also noticed that the beginning of the solo is tabbed out as unison bends, while it is very clearly played as octaves. This helped me better understand and recreate the solo correctly. Those bends never did sound right to me and you can get catch a glimpse of those notes played live on just a few videos. The flange intro is also played at the 16the fret bend upwards to the 17th on the high e string, which is also incorrectly tabbed as just the 17th fret on the b string played on every beat...
All in all I'm Extremely Happy with the outcome. SO here's the final breakdown of what has changed:
1: Correct Tempo
2: Correct Drums
3: Real Bass
4: Correct Rhythm Sections
5: ALL Guitars Included
6: Better Video Recording (No More Dark Spots)
7: Better Mixing and Mastering
Hope You Guys Enjoy This One
Cheers
