When I have bowel problems i often write music using the brown note whilst i am on the toilet to aid the passing of difficult stools....

[NaYoN]

We tune to Ab0 in Carthage (2:11)

 

[Wings of Obsidian]

Where is Noyan? He tunes pretty damn low on his 9-strings for Nyn and Carthage.

 

[Wings of Obsidian]

Oh shit, nevermind bro. I didn't see the final page before I posted!

 

[Wings of Obsidian]

HI NOYAN!

I have a bass string that just kind of flops around where the high E would be on my 8.

It's less a note and more a sound.

^That, but what the hell.

I remember a Youtube video of a band that did exactly this. The lowest string was tuned to something stupid low and basically just there for the sake of making a giant boomy low noise. Can't remember who the fuck it was or I'd post it.

Probably Floor or Torche - which is kind of the same thing.

 

[NaYoN]

Since Wings of Obsidian mentioned my solo project NYN, also tuned to Ab0

Ion Dissonance tuned their 8-strings to D# on their last album 'Crused' and made it sound really good. Usually, tunings below F don't sound good to me.

Haha, that Ab0 sounds so not useful to me. It just kinda farts.

No offense.

My question is, what the hell is the bassist playing behind that Ab0 and how is he tuned?...

 

[aturaya]

He's probably playing the same Ab0. The bass in Danza + Glass Cloud is an octave below, and Josh Travis also hits B0 or B1 or whatever it is on his 9 string. Listen to this. Brutal as fuck.

I think Dissipate tune to D# as well:

My production isn't the best Better strings, better setup and better production, and it sounds way better now

Ab0? Haha good lord

 

[MikeH]

My band's new material is D#. Bermuda has a song tuned to C#.

(3:59)

In my old troll band Feculent Urethral Discharge I tuned my guitar so the strings drooped off the neck. We pretended to be a deathgrind band. We almost accidentally burned down a fire hall and we're permanently banned from the city's all ages venue.

I played guitar with my shoe, and was like 15 at the time.
