Wow, what a great great song and start to this album - kinda reminds me of
Tool when they opened with Stinkfist on Aenema - both very powerful tracks &
a little similar in the riffs
Pretty easy song to play - saw the other versions after I figured the song out and I
this one is a slight improvement - and it's better to play on dropped-D too.
My 1st tab - if you like then please rate or e-mail me w/ any corrections etc
