"Cry of the Banshee" Brocas Helm Defender Of The Crown 2004 Transcribed by: nECKsPIDER(appetitefordisaster@hotmail.com) Guitar/Vocals-Bobbie Wright Bass-James Schumacher Drums-Jack Hayes There wasn't a bass tab for this song already, so I decided to make one. This is my tab, but im sure it's at least 95 percent correct. Brocas Helm recorded this song in their of Thunder" when they were unsigned (as they still are). They have been signed off and since theircreation in 1982. This song is one of my personal favorites.Schumacher uses a filtered distortion. I recommend a ProCo Rat, being that it is very adjustable. The Gain high, but the filter is about equal.Listen to the song for exact timing. If you have questions or corrections, just email me. All Rhythm Figures and Solos Have Distortion. All Verses and Solo Parts Are Clean.
