This album is different but really grows on you.

I apologize for this tab being rather blah but just getting the main parts across.
I'm not sure how to coomunicate the rhythm well so just use your ears.

notes.

Main�Riff:

*I like to just pound on a G chord, hitting the top deeper strings and then the higher
for the octave effect. Then just get those other notes in there however, either
or do a C chord and a C/B


Another part. Listen for it. First 3 notes are held longer and then quick on the A
notes.
