Icarus Line - Caviar guitar tab
Thanks a lot to Simon for writing all of this tab.
h - Hammer note
~ - Let the note ring, vibrato etc
\\ - Slide down
/ - Slide up
bu - Bend up
x - Mute string with left hand
Guitar 1: I'm guessing this is Aaron, loads of distortion and weird effects.
Guitar 2: Alvin, weird trebly effect, with nuff reverb. Kicks in the overdrive for the break.

Ok, this bit is played twice at the beginning, with lots of pauses and bends inbetween
and a feedback/bend type thing on the last G before it repeats itself. Vibrato on pretty
every note. Gotta listen to the song to get the timing, I suck at tabbing so can't
get it to fit. If you have the live(ish) version of this you can hear this part much better.

It's all played with a cool trebly effect and a bit of echo. The very first couple of
are kinda lost in the mix, but play the first note at the same time as the first note
1 plays and it should work out ok. Apart from that this isn't tabbed out in relation to
Guitar 1 tab; so listen to the song. The one line of tab for Guitar 1 should fit into two
of tab for Guitar 2... you'll get what I mean if you play it with the song. Oh yeah, to
it even more confusing, you only play the second half of that bit the second time round;
listen to the song.

Pretty straightforward; but Part A sounds weird by itself, works with the track, honest.
A is played while Guitar 2 is doing all the high trem stuff below, both guitars play
B. Second time round play Part A four times, forget about B until the end.

The last four notes, Part B, are played by both guitars, distorted. Now go back and
everything, but when you get to this bit again, keep trem picking the E (5 on the B string)
of playing Part B. This brings you into the hardcore mosh breakdown wicked cool bit.

The cool bit. Just play it loose and messy. You can replace the F (1,3,3 on the E
with a mute, Aaron fucks about with this with mutes a lot live, in the live(ish)
one
5,4,3 slide is replaced by mutes, sounds pretty cool.
The order to play this is:
A, B, A, B, A, B, A, B, A, A, A, B ( The A part gets repeated during the 'There's no
side' bit. A couple of times they play the notes twice in the slide down, just listen to
track)
Guitar 1 then goes back and plays the chorus Part A bit 4 times, then Part B is repeated
and that's it. I wasted way too much time on this tab.
