Pieced together a pretty straight cover of Trompe Le Monde (the song, I'm not quite enough of a fanboy to cover the whole record).. mainly cause I wanted to and I love the song. Plus my recording chops were getting sloppy..
Bottom on the playlist, you know the rest!

I've seen it in Guitar World transcribed that way, and it sounds right. Previously, I had seen it like this in Total Guitar:
--1--
--1--
--0--
--0--
--3--
--3--
It's fancier, and is similar to the A Hard Day's Night intro G chord that HYCM kind of pays homage to. But I reckon the other chord sounds more accurate. |

I'm dubious of tab books. I had the Nevermind tab book that said 'Come As You Are' was played all on one string..

Even as a stoned 15 year old, I still knew that wasn't right..

Yeah, I played that chord (2-4-4-3-0-0) and take my middle finger off when during the drum and bass beats (2-4-4-0-0-0). I don't think it's right since it's so hard to make it out, but near enough for a cover.

The TLM cover sounded pretty decent. What are the chords just before it goes into each verse (during the 2 sets of 4 'hard' beats)? I've never quite figured that out.

Hey Doog,
I am not a big fan of cover versions... TLM is pretty cool tho. I am listening to That New Song and its fucking good.... like the others as well... you're good!
Did you design this webpage? I like the music player and am going to be designing a website for the punk scene in Beijing soon, which will hopefully include something similar to what is being used on your webpage.

Heh, I did a cover of Wave about 3 years ago, I don't remember it being very good though.
Seriously though, thanks for the kind words, I thought it was a pretty boring and unoriginal cover (I'm basically playing all the parts as on the record) but like I said, it was a labour of LURVE.

don't worry man i loved this but didn't want to be the first to reply for some reason. it's really good.

yeah i know what you mean. even if you're pretty good at guitar and know all the parts, it's quite hard to piece it all together to make a good cover. well done doog. seriously... you are the man. i really wanted to watch your cover band those 2 or 3 times you played live but they were always in 21+ or 18+ venues and i was too young... well, i'm 18, nearly 19... so if you do any gigs and they have to be in 18+ venues, I'LL COME!

I'm actually from Bognor but know Once Over, the band that takes up most of my time (Illuminati 3) haved played with 'em a good few times. Awesome chaps, very cool band. Oh, we've played the Pav Tav and Hobgoblin in Brighton quite a bit, and the Pressure Point 2-3 times. Y'might have seen us without realising!

That's not the first time that's been said that, which is weird cause I've not listened to them since The Colour And The Shape.

Hey Doog, I just saw on your space that you had Once Over as a friend. Does this mean your from the Brighton area (same as me). I saw Once Over back at last Halloween supporting Spunge and thought thaey were pretty great. Were you there? I know how poointless this is, but I just found it cool that another member of this awesome forum could have been in the same room as me and we were none the wiser.

Haha, I once covered the entire Nirvana 'In Utero' album on my 4 track with just guitar and vocals when I was like 15. Doing the entire TLM record would be interesting, maybe if I spread it out over several years...
When Nimrod's Son were active, I always thought about doing a show of just one record played start to finish, so maybe if we reform, the "Pixies" could finally play all of those TLM songs everyone wants to hear. Hmmm. I must have a think on that.

Haha that really woulde be something. It's a great cover. Nice to have a version of the song that doesn't require the speakers to be turned up further. |

Not sure, Black's guitar is pretty buried in the track, it's hard to make it out really.
Cheers for the props :D

Here's another!
I'm blown away by your playing. If things were different and it was Doog who studied at U-Mass, he would have made an excellent Joey to compliment Charles' Black. You've nailed everything pretty much spot on. I especially like the 'fairground sound' section. Brilliant! A worthy cover to rival the best.
No! Wait! Come to think of it, I haven't heard too many Pixies covers that comes anywhere close to the quality of this one. A+
The verse chords aren't played with the B and high E strings left open*, are they?
( * is this "#7/add9"?) |
