                        The Blackest Day - Annihilator
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kiel Hufton                  

E-mail: Kiel.Hufton@gmail.com

Tuning: Drop D

This is the first song I learned by ear and sat down to write the tab for.
As there were no tabs for this song while I was looking. I have not been
able to work out the solos by ear yet, but when I get time I will figure
them out and update the tab.
