I know the band is super busy with touring coming up, but I haven't seen this discussed, so I thought I'd start a thread.
Atheist is timeless, brilliant music and I'm sure a lot of guitar/bass players would like to see the right way to play the songs.
I would bet such a thing(s) would be very popular with the big fans of Atheist, would be great to see these one day....

This is a great idea!

I'd LOVE to get my hands on an Elements book.

there is talk of this...

In the mean time, we're gathering what unofficial tabs we can find... which reminds me, next time I update the site I have a couple to upload :D

And no, I'm not doing it now, it's 25 to 2 in the morning...

I've been tabbing out and the psychic saw, but I am tabbing it full step down (D tuning) Because my band plans on playing it and we play in D.

I would give both my nuts for bass tabs/sheet music for Elements. So much slapping/popping I'd never figure out.

Should I give it a shot and try to tab Unquestionable Presence (bass, album) in text form?
I know most of Elements now too, but the quality aint that good with bass
so its a bit impossible for me to hear what notes does Tony play while he slaps.

All the bass for Unquestionable Presence and Piece of Time have been tabbed out already. They were on the old Bassists of Death page.

It does if you had the link before it went down and use web archive:

I will help out when I can. I have checked the tabs out and there are a lot of things that are wrong. Rand is going to have to do his parts, luckily for me I'm not learning his stuff. Sorry, dont play bass, Tony may be willing to do it?
Major props to Kelly, singing and playing it at the same time had to be a bitch.

No, the only parts I'm not sure are the fills.
But those arent a problem.

Well if anyone can produce stuff better than BoD, then I'd greatly appreciate it. I've been meaning to get back to learning Mother Man.

I got the tab finished, I basically just got the riffs laid down, no particular
order. But you can still see everything whats needed there.

yea the tab for Mother Man has alot of mistakes...especially the two hand tapping part which he didn't even make it tapping at all and what he has is far off.
