Stereophonics
Superman Tab on the Album 'Language. Sex. Violence. Other?'
This isn't the hardest song to play ever by Stereophonics, it takes only about 2 ot 3
to understand the rhythm of the song altogether. Probably their heaviest song of what
I've of the 'Phonics' but some people will disagree because 'The Bartender and the
Theif' is crazy all the way through. It's just a matter of opinion.
