Meshuggah - Autonomy Lost
from Catch Thirty-Three (Nuclear Blast, 2005 A.D.)

Transcriptor - Callum R. Macdonald
E-mail       - Mnemon@hotmail.co.uk

Guitarist(s) - Fredrik Thorendahl, Marten Hagstrom
Tuning       - F Bb Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
Equipment    - Ibanez Custom Shop guitars,
               Line 6 amplification and effects,
               DR strings

Disenchantment concludes the use of the riff
idea established in Autonomy lost at the beginning.
The riff becomes mutated beyond recognition as
the song begins with a new 'cell' (rather than the
cross from Autonomy Lost to Imprint...) and repeats
by gluing the end of the last 'cell' onto it, creating
an interesting rhythmic jump, as before seen in
Imprint...'s verse.
Counting while playing is necessary in practice
to perfect the the riffs with the '12', when
a final and most significant mutation is made by
the alternation between open F and it's octave.
Also watch the jump into this riff.
