Talk:Animals (tablature)
Hello there, I replaced the previous tab which was made by rainwater34 on Ultimate-Guitar with mine which I made almost 100% on my own (except little parts where I referred to rainwater's tab.). I put in a lot of hard work into this so please use the talk page to let me know what changes you will make/have made. I will gladly appreciate it.
No offense to Michael who posted the one made by rainwater here on MuseWiki.

- I haven't made any edits to the tab itself, but just a few things I wanted to point out. As per the Making Of video for The 2nd Law, Matt's Strat is tuned down a half step across the board. I know that's common knowledge, this isn't the relevant part.
The part of the tab immediately following "Animal, you're an animal, don't take anything less" starts out quite a bit differently than you have tabbed.
I'm fairly certain it starts off on the B string as "7-8-10~" which translates to "8-9-11~" in standard. Of this I am 100% certain as per the video, unless the way he plays it live and/or the video video doesn't necessarily correspond with the audio on the studio version of the song. This changes the way this section (and a couple other sections) should be played dramatically, if you're looking to copy Matt's way of playing it as close as possible.
The hammer-ons/pull-offs on the G I believe are also played on B immediately following the 9th fret on the B-string. I'm not 100% sure of the tab but I just wanted to throw this out there to maybe change the baseline you're working with on this.
I would also like to point out that the 'Solo 2' you have tabbed out sounds and feels a lot more comfortable when played the way it was previously tabbed by the guy on Ultimate Guitar.
Just some fair criticism. Decent tab otherwise.
