INTERLUDE
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/p/pantera/floods_tab_ver_5.html ]
the heavy interludes seem to be a mix of these riffs:
RIFF 1
Eb|--------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|--------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|--------------------------------------------------------|
Db|--2\0/2---2\0/2---2\0/2---2\0/2---2\0/2--3--2--0////5^--|
Ab|--2\0/2---2\0/2---2\0/2---2\0/2---2\0/2--3--2--0////5^--|
Db|--2\0/2---2\0/2---2\0/2---2\0/2---2\0/2--3--2--0////5^--|
bend up
RIFF 2
Eb|--------------------------------------------------------| I think Dime uses his
Bb|--------------------------------------------------------| Tremelo here, to drop
Gb|--------------------------------------------------------| the opening power chord
Db|--0\_/0---0\_/0---0\_/0---0\_/0---0\_/0--1--0--0////3^--| or a hammer on pull off
Ab|--0\_/0---0\_/0---0\_/0---0\_/0---0\_/0--1--0--0////3^--| on the first or second
Db|--0\_/0---0\_/0---0\_/0---0\_/0---0\_/0--1--0--0////3^--| fret
bend up full
and release
play RIFF 1, then RIFF 2, then RIFF 1, then RIFF 2 without final
0 -> 3 slide. Insert this riff instead:
Eb|------------------------------|
Bb|------------------------------|
Gb|------------------------------|
Db|--0--1--2--3------3--0--3--2--|
Ab|--0--1--2--3------3--0--3--2--|
