As Above, So Below
Behemoth
Zos Kia Cultus - Here And Beyond (Track 4)
Tabbed by: Tuckley
Email: slipknot_ct@live.com
Bass Tuning - A#, F, A#, D# (Drop A#, lowest to highest)
Hey for all you people interested in this tab or just because you're bored out of your head.
I decided since this is one of my personal favourites from Behemoth and there was no
bass tab for it.
So it was an easy choice for a song to attempt tabbing out.
I do play 3 finger bass, and this is just my interpretation of the song, however you
want to play it is up to you.
Any constructive criticism is appreciated, the email's there. \m/
