"Slave Called Shiver"
Track 5 from Stupid Dream
By Porcupine Tree
Tab by APerfectTool77
This is only my second submitted tab (the other being another
PT song, Strip the Soul). Any corrections, suggestions or PT tab requests
should be sent to [email protected]. I will do my best to tab requests
out.
The song is tabbed out in a drop D tuning even though the low D is not used. Drop D is the
PT standard for a 4 string. In concert, he usually plays a fretless 5 string.

Comments appreciated!!! Enjoy!
Porcupine Tree are a progressive rock band formed by Steven Wilson in 1987 in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, England. Their music is difficult to categorize, being associated with both psychedelic rock and progressive rock, yet having been influenced by trance, krautrock and ambient due to Steven Wilson and Richard Barbieri's liking for the Kosmische Musik scene of the early '70s, led by bands such as Tangerine Dream, Neu! and Can. Since the early 2000s, their music has been leaning towards progressive metal.
