Bro this is probably the best you're going to get in terms of "tab", or any real method of properly playing this song. I've been looking online forever just to find a video of Jay playing this song in a way where his playing is somewhat visible, and this no lie has been the best reference video I've found in the year of looking for something. The whole thing is just bar chords, and power chords. Honestly not too hard to replicate, and it'll be really good for training your ears, and practicing.

mike aww thanks Mike <3

matthieu uol Right on. Dug his previous albums a lot too. Thanks for taking the time!

+royce87 Thanks for commenting royce! To me your comment as well as the other two folk's comments before reinforce my arguments made in the video. All three of you assume that because I don't like it, I somehow didn't "get it". I'm saying there's not much to get when it comes to the record / Tillman's essay, you summed it up pretty well with a couple sentences, it's a pretty simple theme / concept (Not subject matter though). It's the sort of thought process that I argued this album, once it's flaws are taken into account, appeals to. My issue with the album, (which I thought I made clear in the video but I realize now I did not, sorry! Still learning here) isn't with the theme, it's with the execution. The music to me is simply not as strong creatively as it had been on his previous records. Multiple times throughout the album Tillman can't help but be reductive, dismissive, or even smug with his narration, which I think weakens the narrator's intended position of objective observer. Once that is in place, as I summarized in the vid, the album is left to appeal to folks who want their already formed opinions and prejudices reinforced, rather than serving as a convincing argument for his position on what our collective outlook should be. Because of that, no matter how much I might agree with the sentiment / theme of the record, I'm just not interested in patting myself on the back for agreeing with FJM on this one, or participating in the ensuing intellectual circlejerk.

Fair enough. I just don't think its scattershot as you think it is. I don't think hes trying to get us on the side of anything, or even cares if we agree with him. If anything, the us vs them nature of life is a waste of time and there really is no way to win. It took me a couple of listens to get everything he was saying. The same way "The Night Josh Tillman Came To..." seems like its ripping this valley girl, but its really about how he couldnt get it up so he is lashing out at her. "things that would have been..." isnt about how corporations take advantage of us, its also about how we would miss it and find ways to recreate it at the first opportunity. But hey, thats what opinions are for..

Haha Hey man! Thanks for watching. To me, your response sort of exemplifies my criticism of it. I agree that it's crafted to fly "beyond few bobbing heads" but I don't think it's successful. Instead it serves to allow people to pat themselves on the back for sharing the view point of the record (Which I've mentioned multiple times now that I do) and for "getting it", when really there's not much there to chew on. And of the material that is there, in my opinion, it's presented in a way that hamstrings what it sets out to do which as you said was to "fly beyond few bobbing heads."

Hey!! Thanks for taking the time. I am familiar with the ‘concept’, though I don’t think I’d call the record a concept album. Even if the essay wasn’t read or the short film wasn’t watched by someone listening to this, it’s pretty easy to grasp on a listen or two to this thing. To me, even if we call it a concept album, in the context of the themes expressed in the album and in the pretty on-the-nose essay, I feel that my criticisms still stand. Like I said in the video, I agree with his sentiment for the most part; when it comes to the 'concept' I agree with it/him. But I don't dig on how he's presenting it (with in my opinion, lazier songwriting than we've seen in the past from him) or narrating it on the record. In the album and in his essay, he's so sure of himself, and hand waves and oversimplifies things while presenting the narrator's (His) point of view as the only logically correct way to view things. While that may hold true in the ecosystem (read echo chamber) he’s created, it may or may not elsewhere (Which in my opinion, is what he was going for) and that weakens the album/concept/ essay/short film as vessels to get a message / story across on the more complicated subject of humanity. Also, my thoughts here really do pertain only to the album, which to me - concept or not - should stand on its own (Honestly I think it does, it’s just not for me), without a contextual explanation required to enjoy it.

+initforthewatch I really appreciate that man. I'm working on it!

+Camila Pequeno Thanks! I'd say - while they're not in exactly the same genre - give True Widow and Russian Circles a try. TW's Self Titled or As High as the highest heights... records are good starting points and Russian Circle's lates record memorial is amazing and has that chelsea wolfe feature. Also Mamiffer's Statu Nascendi record may scrath the itch, Yowler's 'The Offer' and maybe a little further out there, The Body's new record or 'All the waters of the earth...'

Thank you. Keep the videos They are really good

i'm obsessed with gothic music right now. Bauhaus absolutely my favorite. But Chelsea is different. Sounds kinda like a soundtrack for a horror movie.Dou think this aspect is for the doom metal in her music or ghotic ?

It IS a separate Mic. Just bad room and set up. Slowly improving! Thanks for the feedback! Seriously appreciated

Rad Company ENJOYED :)

+Adam Gentile Thanks! Enjoy the back catalog man! They have certainly created some gems over the years
