Artificial Harmonic m Palm Muted // Trem Pick (Pick as fast as possible) Here's a beast of a track! I have attempted to tab this as best I can but you will have to improvise through some of the quieter bits with a few random noises such as scraping down the strings or tapping the pickups! Otherwise the rest of it should be there! Enjoy!
