Glass - Incubus
S.C.I.E.N.C.E.
ok, this song has been tabbed quite the wrong numerous times, but this is
alright, considering its a hard song to tab.
now some guys have been sayin that you can put like 50 effects together to
make the sound n stuff
i have a Gt6 and therefore a ring modulator which is what mike has
except DOD have called it a Gonkulator instead of a ring mod.
IF you have a GT6 or can somehow find a Gonkulator, then the frequency of the
ring mod is 60
and it is played like this.
P.S. there might be chorus or something in the verses coz you can hear like a
rotary effect or modulation.
INTRO and VERSE

n.b. this is now under debate with myself and a friend since we recently saw a concert of mikey
weird stuff goes on...he changes the way he plays it. sometimes it is a slide and sometimes a hammer on
and he even changes strings...:S just do this it sounds cool! its pretty much impossible to reproduce the
record sound so just do this. tis close enough :P

- at the end of the recorded pre-chorus, you hear a sound like a slide.
this is just what it is, except its a slide from frets 3 to 5 on the
lower e string, all of which are harmonics.

N.B. the "x3's mean play the chord three times, not mute fret 3.
INTERLUDE
what i do here is i pick behind the nut and then play open strings
with the modulator on. i think there is also heavy chorus on here
coz you can hear the sounds...
