See That Animal

by

Elastica

This is a great song by Elastica and is from their self-titled

debut album. It kind of reminds me of a somewhat quicker version of

Green Day's 'Brain Stew'. At first listen they might not sound too

similar, but if you know the two well enough, you know what I mean.

So here it is, pretty straightforward.

The song begins with the bass line which is

played twice with the drums before the other

two guitars join in.

(1*) x4**

|---------------------------------|

o---------------------------------o

o------------------7-5------------o

|--------5-7-8-7-------8-7--------|

|--5-7-8-------------------8-7-5--|

**the third time, the above riff is played

this way:

|-------------------------------|

|----------------7-7------------|

|--------5-8-7-------8-7-5------|

|--5-7-8-------------------8-7--|

(2*) x4

|---------------|

|---------------|

o---------------o

o--10--9--8--7--o

|--10--9--8--7--|

|---8--7--6--5--|

NOTE: Heres (1*) and (2*) are played at the same time...

each being played four times before the main riff

accompanied by lyrics.

This next part is in my opinion, the main riff

(3*) x4

See that animal, get some heavy metal...

|----6---6--6-6-6-0-5---5--5-5-5-0--|

there's no new stuff really.

it continues like this:

(1*) x2

(3*) x4

(1*) x2 - part of this is played while the second guitar

is strumming all muffled strings quickly.

Similar to the end of the song, but less

noticeable.

(3*) x4 & solo

This is the solo. though it is only variations of the first

riff, and difficult to hear over all the distortion, here is

what it sounds like to me.

this first part of the solo is played twice

|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

o----------------7-7----------------------------7-5---------------o

|--------5-8-7-------8-7-5--------------5-8-7-------8-7-5---------|

|--5-7-8--------------------8-7---5-7-8-------------------8-7-----|

|------------------7--5-----------7-7-5---------------5-7-8-7-----|

|-5-7--8--7--8-7-5-------7-8--5---------8-7-5-7-5-7-8-------------|

|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

|--7-7---------------------------7-5------------------------------|

|------8-7-5-------------5-8-7-------8-7--------------------------|

|------------8-7---5-7-8-----------------8-7-5--------------------|

(2*) x4 - I can definitely hear the second guitar doing something

weird here, but the distortion from the first covers it

up too much and I can't hear it well enough to TAB it.

(1*) x2 - this is played over what sounds like quickly strumming

all muffled strings with heavy distortion like thirty

times or something.

just another note, the distortion makes it hard to hear sometimes,

especially during the solo, so you may have your own opinion on

how that goes, but that's how I like to play it.

And again, I'm sure I missed something so...
