My favorite band of '96 & 1 of my favorite new bands...& that new cd rawks!! so git off yer butt & git if if you hadn't already!! Anyway, these are a couple of basslines from the self-titled cd I love playing & singing along to...hey, I sound just like Shirley Manson, so go figure. If yer a tuning freak like I am, you'll find out, or already know, what a bitch it is to play exactly as it sounds on the cd to "Supervixon", so tune the best you can.
figure 1--beginning, middle parts, & ending (& watch out for the 8th note rest in the 2nd bar!!)

E-2-2---------|--0-0-0---------|-2-2---------|------------------|
figure 2 (verse) note: bar before repeat sign is 1st ending, so repeat figure & then play the 2 measures after the repeat sign

figure 3(chorus: "make a whole new religion...")--repeat 3 times from repeat sign, & then play next 2 bars

D------------|------------------*||-------------|-------------------|-------------------|
A------------|------------------*||-------------|-------------------|-------------------|

E-5--5-3--3-|-------------||-5--5-3--3-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-7-|-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
back to figure 3 (chorus)
then back to figure 1 ("bow down to me)
this is basically it...just repeat it as you hear it...just note there's no bassline during the "don't believe in fear"parts, & listen for the rests in these measures
