Tab Help Request...

Hey everyody... thought I'd help in making this community a bit more active with a request for some tabbing help.

I have a real tin ear when it comes to working out songs, sometimes I might stumble on a bit by accident but usually I just get lost... this is made more difficult by my liking for very heavy, very dirty metal/rock.

Got a couple of things I'd like help with....
First is Electric Wizard's Funeralopolis, I've got the rhythm bit pretty well having cobbled it together from various tabs and watching live videos but can't work out the lead parts near the beginning and right near the end at all.

Also is Goatsnake's The River... haven't seen any tab for this anywhere...

Both songs are played in B-standard I believe...

Sadly, I have to say, I am completely new to this genre, but there is definitely something interesting and different about it that I dig. It definitely sounds like both songs are dropped a fourth to B tuning (B-E-A-D-F#-B low to high) I tried listening to "Funeralopolis" at work, but even listening with crappy computer speakers, after the 1:00 mark, I kept going into some kind of trance, and ended up almost getting fired for negligence. So, I'll have to take a better listen through headphones later.

It sounds like most of leads are just based off of the E-minor and E-minor penatonic scales, so there's lots of room for improvising. Not sure how good your theory is, but if you need those scales, let me know. If you want the exact notes, let me take some more listens. As for the end leads, like I said above, I trance out before I get halfway through the song, so let me know the time point in the track as to where the leads start happenin that you are looking for.


I'll get some of the main riffs for "The River" for ya too, after some more listens with headphones.

Yeah, I'd like the leads fully transcribed if you can... :)

Saw Electric Wizard live last night... could feel the bass in my bones and tranced out during the second song of the set, only to be rudely awakened by someone bumping into me. Was very confused for a couple of seconds!
