Blood Sugar by Pendulum
Blood Sugar
D A D G B E
Key: G
Tuning: Drop D
(but you could play it in standard if you wanted. It'd make the metal riff at the end of
live version different (easier?))
As a general rule, one '-' between notes indicates an 8th, two dashes a quarter note.
tried to give a rough estimate of note placement in the measure, but listen to the track
correct timing (it's pretty easy).

D|-5--5-5--5-5-5-|-6-6-6.---6.-6.|-8--8-8--8-8-8-|----3.--3-3--3-|
Except the second time, instead of the last two bars, play something similar to this:
e|---------------|----------------|
B|---------------|----------------|
G|---------------|----------------|
D|-5--5-5--5-5-5-|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3|
A|-5--5-5--5-5-5-|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3|
D|-5--5-5--5-5-5-|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3|
______
Then play the entire 'chorus' section again with the riff and bass etc, but drop the
and beat for the first measure. You know it sounds awesome :)
Chorus x1
______
No riff bass verse x1
______
Then play intro 'killer riff' again x1
"Okay, what you gonna do?"
______
Chorus x1
______
No riff bass verse x1
______
Then play the chorus again, dropping the beat for the first measure
Chorus x1
_____
No riff bass verse x1
_____
Then end with intro killer riff again x1.
_____
That's pretty damn close to the recording, but if you want to spice it up a bit you'll
to alter it like they did at the Perth gig.
-----------------------------
Live version notes
-----------------------------
Aside from an even sillier intro voiceover, here is how Pendulum plays it with their
band. This features an entirely new breakdown in the latter half, and is more suited to
rock covers.
________
Heavy intro x1
The guitarist uses his higher strings:
e|------------|-------------------|--------------|-----------------|
B|------------|-------------------|--------------|-----------------|
G|------------|-------------------|--------------|-----------------|
D|-5--------6-|-5-----3-3-3--3-3--|-5---------6--|-5----3.-3-3--3--|
A|-5----------|-------3-3-3--3-3--|-5------------|------3.-3-3--3--|
D|-5----------|-------3-3-3--3-3--|-5------------|------3.-3-3--3--|
and they shorten it and use the simpler rhythm twice, but don't settle for that!
_______
Then they play the intro killer riff, but Rob Swire messes around with the melody to
effect:
e|-9--8--6----|--------8------|-------6------|-------6--------|
B|----------8-|-8-8-/11--8----|-6---8---8----|-6-6-8---8------|
G|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
D|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
A|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
D|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
e|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------------|
B|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------------|
G|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------------|
D|------------|-------------6-|-5-----------|---------------3-|
A|------------|-------------6-|-5-----------|---------------3-|
D|------------|-------------6-|-5-----------|---------------3-|
e|-9--8--6----|--------8------|-------6------|----------------|
B|----------8-|-8-8-/11--8----|-6---8---8----|-8-8-8-8-8\6-6-6|
G|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
D|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
A|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
D|------------|---------------|--------------|----Different---|
e|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------------|
B|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------------|
G|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------------|
D|-5----------|-------------6-|-8-----------|---------------3-|
A|-5----------|-------------6-|-8-----------|---------------3-|
D|-5----------|-------------6-|-8-----------|---------------3-|
Then once more standard:
e|-9--8--6----|--------8------|-------6------|-------6--------|
B|----------8-|-8-8-/11--8----|-6---8---8----|-6-6-8---8------|
G|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
D|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
A|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
D|------------|---------------|--------------|----------------|
e|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------------|
B|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------------|
G|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------------|
D|-5----------|-------------6-|-5-----------|---------------3-|
A|-5----------|-------------6-|-5-----------|---------------3-|
D|-5----------|-------------6-|-5-----------|---------------3-|
Instead of the "what you gonna do" break, he does a simple pentatonic run for four bars.
Pentatonic end x1:
e|-9--8--6----|---------------|------------|------------|
B|----------8-|-6-------------|------------|------------|
G|------------|----7--5-------|-5--------5-|-6--5-------|
D|------------|----------8----|----5--8----|-------8----|
A|------------|---------------|------------|------------|
D|------------|---------------|------------|------------|
e|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------|
B|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------|
G|------------|---------------|-------------|-----------|
D|-5----------|-------------6-|-8-----------|-----------|
A|-5----------|-------------6-|-8-----------|-----------|
D|-5----------|-------------6-|-8-----------|-----------|
_______
They then play this entire intro again, but with double kick pedals and this (actual)
riff here:
e|---------------|---------------|---------------|-----------------|
B|---------------|---------------|---------------|-----------------|
G|---------------|---------------|---------------|---------3-------|
D|5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5|5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5|5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5|-5-5-3h5---5p3h5-|
A|---------------|---------------|---------------|-----------------|
D|---------------|---------------|---------------|-----------------|
x4.
________
Then the standard chorus sequence comes in. Instead of just chugging along with the bass
guitar does different things here:
e|------------|---------------|-------------|----------------|
B|------------|---------------|-------------|----------------|
G|------------|---------------|-------------|----------------|
D|-5--5--5--5-|-5---5---5---6-|-5--5--5--5--|----------------|
A|-5--5--5--5-|-5---5---5---6-|-5--5--5--5--|----------------|
D|-5--5--5--5-|-5---5---5---6-|-5--5--5--5--|-3-5p3-5p3-5p3--|
x4. The last time uses that alteration just like in the single:
e|------------|-------------|------------|---------------|
B|------------|-------------|------------|---------------|
G|------------|-------------|------------|---------------|
D|-5--5--5--6-|-5--5--5--6--|-5--6--5--6-|-5--5--5--5----|
A|-5--5--5--6-|-5--5--5--6--|-5--6--5--6-|-5--5--5--5----|
D|-5--5--5--6-|-5--5--5--6--|-5--6--5--6-|-5--5--5--5----|
Use your imagination here, it doesn't take much to make it rock.
________
Next comes the no riff bass verse as usual, but take note of the use of the wah pedal by
electric guitar- it adds heaps to the song.
e|---------------|---------------|---------------|------------------|
B|---------------|---------------|---------------|------------------|
G|---------------|---------------|---------------|------------------|
D|---------------|---------------|---------------|------------------|
A|---------------|---------------|---------------|------------------|
D|-5--5-5--5-5-5-|-6-6-6.---6.-6.|-8--8-8--8-8-8-|-10-10-10.--8--3--|
e|---------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|
B|---------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|
G|---------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|
D|---------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|
A|---------------|---------------|---------------|---------------|
D|-5--5-5--5-5-5-|-6-6-6.---6.-6.|-8--8-8--8-8-8-|----3.--3-3--3-|
You sort of want to wah up (toe position) at the beginning of each measure and at each
of notes in the measure, and rock it back over the next 8th. Mess around with it.
****************************************
****************************************
Now here's the really interesting bit. They added an entirely new clean breakdown here,
it sounds awesome. Thing is, this is the only bit I couldn't really hear... if you
out something better email me, I'd like to know your thoughts. It sounds pretty good as
is though.
This bit is at 3:21 on the perth youtube video.

x2, then enter drums n basses
x2.
_____________
Chorus x1, with some altered riffs
Then no riff bass verse x1
Then one final chorus with more altered riffs.
He does things like this:
e|-9--8--6----|--------8-9----|
B|----------8-|-8-8-/11-------|
G|------------|---------------|
D|------------|---------------|
A|------------|---------------|
D|------------|---------------|
It's pretty easy to figure out, just noodle over the scale to finish.
Ladies and Gentlemen
we understand that you
have come tonight
to bare witness to the sound
of drum... and... bass
We regret to announce that this is not the case
as instead, we come tonight to bring you,
the sonic recreation of the end of the World
Ladies and Gentlemen prepare to Hold Your Colour!
Okay, fuck it, I lied
it's drum and bass ...
what you gonna do!?

then theres this futuristic bit where it goes something like this:
e|-11p10p8-10p8-10p8--|
or an octave above if ur lucky enough 2 hav a guitar with more than 22 frets
then theres 2 big bass drum hits and this riff fades in:

repeat this once then repeat this another 2 times at full volume with the drums as well.
then into the main riff and that riff combined (sort of)
