Dimmu Borgir - Kings Of The Carnival Creation Chords & Tabs

Band: Dimmu Borgir
Album: Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia
Song: Kings of the Carnival Creation

OK, so, let me clear something up about Dimmu Borgir. Vortex uses a 5 string bass, and 
uses it for certain chords that the guitarists may do. For example, say if the guitars 
going

[-----]
[-----]
[-----]
[4-444]
[2-222]
[2-222]

Then the bass would be going

[-----]
[-----]
[-----]
[-----]
[0-000]

He often uses standard tuning, but I can hear that he goes lower than B, so he must be 
drop D. Feel free to PM me with any questions or comments.
