Killswitch songs are definitely an interesting breed as a lot of ear
training is needed to pick up all the intricacies.  Then again, those
intricacies are half the reason their music is so listenable.  Due to
the nature of this music, I cannot guarantee complete accuracy although
I know for a fact it's very close.
