oh, i actually suck.

hmm no, i don't think i'm actually that great at figuring songs out perfectly, and i definitely don't try as often as i did when i was younger, but watching those pitchfork performances really made me want to figure the songs out, and i like puzzles so anytime thurston has a new tuning it's fun to try to crack it thru trial and error. i thooought i had succeeded but 'lo-fi suicide' has me second guessing myself...

i'll say this: the record is probably so damn good because the songs are so FUN to play. i could play around in lee's 'schizo' tuning for hours, and i can't believe it took him 22 years to write more songs in it! (practically the entire album, too!)

i meant to emphasize how rough these tabs are, though, i just realized that i was working enough of em out that i might as well post em. i'm hoping that dude who did the golden 3-guitar tabs for albums like 'nurse' and 'rather ripped' will reappear soon...
