The Deftones rule.

Your mom's (a) minor and flat(-chested)

A C, an E-flat, and a G go into a bar. The bartender says: “Sorry, but we don’t serve minors.” So, the E-flat leaves, and the C and the G have an open fifth between them. After a few drinks, the fifth is diminished: the G is out flat. An F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp enough.



Some of these chords are hard.

I'm gonna go ahead and call that C7

And you are wrong. But we love you anyway. It's Cmaj7. Look at the notes:

C-E-G-B-E. C to E is a major 3rd, G is the 5th, and B is the major 7. A C7 in the open position would be something like x32310.

Well that's what i meant. I didn't know you had to explicitly state having to be major. Dumb.

One of my favorites is used a lot in the Deftones' "Root", which is an E maj 7 flat 5. Sometimes I actually tune my guitar to this chord (it's also cool because it has the "devil's interval" in it):

0
0
0
1
1
0

Isn't that an Emi7 flat5? Not trying to be snooty, just trying to see if I know any theory at all ever..

Well the D# is a major 7th to the E. A minor 7th would be a D instead. So that would be:

0
0
0
0
1
0

EDIT: Ah, I see what you mean though. The open G is a minor 3rd, not a major. Hmm. So this is a fucked up chord then

Actually, if we want to get REALLY technical, the "Root chord" is an Em/maj7 b5. It has E-A#-D#-G-B-E in it. That's E as the root, b5 (A#), maj7 (D#), and m3 (G).

Yeah, I was just gonna edit my post to say that it was an Em (maj7)(b5), but ya beat me to it

bubstance wrote:Yeah, and I had to edit mine because I forgot about the B! Damned b5/5 together in one chord!

Actually, I went to ask my girlfriend what she would call it (to get a different opinion) and her response was "You mean besides ugly?".

Oh yeah, I forgot about that too!

fucking deftones!!

bubstance wrote:Ah, I see. I made the same mistake for a long time. Yeah, each is different. Cmaj7, Cm7, and C7 are three totally different chords (major, minor, and dominant).

wtf, C7 means dominant? D; i thought the capital C implied that it was major. ah well, it makes sense that way. Cdom looks kind of silly.

hehe
ugly for a reason, that is a fucking pissed off song

BTW - to anyone who's curious, the chord is thrown in a bunch of times throughout the song, but he hits it a few times from 0:20 to 0:30

I get a lot of mileage out of F# in standard tuning.

I like:

244300

and

242222

...whatever those are.

I also like

x00211

However, perhaps my favourite ever chord is this Cmaj7:

332000

That with your fuzz on is a monster.
