Queen Of The Winter Throned Tab - Cradle of Filth






Track: Queen of Winter, Throned
Artist: Cradle of Filth
Transcribed: Nocturnal Heartbeat (ghostwhowalks@lightspeed.bc.ca)

1. Note that there may be mistakes, and I may play some parts differently
   from others. All corrections and suggestions are welcome.
 
2. As always with Cradle of Filth songs, there are keyboard intros
   and interludes. I have tried my best to capture the original
   sound with the guitar.

3. All the symbols used in this tablature:
 
~: Vibrato
h: Hammer on
p: Pulling off
s: Slide
t: Trill
m: Palm mute
 
4. For those parts played more than once, please listen to the song itself.
   It should be simple to figure out how many times you need to play the
   part. And it goes the same for the case when the guitar plays thrills.

Tune down 1 step, so the sixth string becomes D.

 Intro keyboard section Part I:
 
 Very cool keyboard section, indeed. If you play this on a guitar, it still
 sounds awesome, especially with those open strings... There are many ways
 to play this part, but I convinced myself that it sounds best with this
 position, lots of open strings...

 Figure A:
 --------------------     Play this 4 times. If you use a little bit of 
 ---------0----------     distortion, it sounds even better, well, at least
 ------0-----0-------     to me...

 --------------------

 Figure B:
 --------------------     Play this 4 times.
 ---------1----------
 ------2-----2-------

 Then, play Figure A again 4 times.
 
 Figure C:
 --------------------     Play this 4 times.

 Figure D: Intro keyboard section part II:
 ------0----------------------     Play this several times.

 Intro guitar: While the intro keyboard part I is being played, this guitar 
 part is played, too. Repeat this a couple of times.

                  This is where the guitar comes in.

 --------------------------------------------------
 --------------------------------------------------
 
 From now on, play Figure G several times until the vocal comes in.
 Also, please listen to the song carefully to figure out how many times you
 need to play the following parts and which parts you need to play.

 Figure J: If you use a bit of picking harmonics, it sounds a bit more
 spooky and thus, better.

 "Exalt...!" Also, play every note twice.

 it anyway, because I love this "huge, explosive ending" so much...
