Brick Shithouse by Placebo ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brick Shithouse - Placebo ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed By : Eric (Kingmx) Tuning: Standard Tuning (EADG) A great song off a great album. The bass in this song is pretty straight forward. There's no bass in the intro or in the bridge (which is exactly the intro). If i fucked up on the strumming, which i think i did, then you can listen to the song and follow the bass. Just listen closely and follow it. It's pretty easy to listen to. I believe the bass is finger-plucked. but for me - i used the pick first, to get the whole flow of the song. In the intro actually, there's this one note that's played in it that sounds like bass or drums. You hear it at (00:20) and it comes in and out. I think it's just a hit on the bass to make a deep note. I'm not sure. In the chorus part - before, i tabbed the bass with 7's on the A string then it drops down to 7's on the low E string. But then i realized the sliding noise and i re-tabbed it. whatever you think sounds accurate. The part where Brian sings "kiss the brick shithouse", the bass starts then kinda jumps out and jumps in quickly. You'll have to listen closely to it to play it accurately. It's hard to listen to at first because of the other noise being played. Alright, enough info.
