artist: the black dahlia murder
track: when the last grave has emptied
album: unhallowed
tabbed by: brad manz (bmanz@bellsouth.net)

tuning is dropped C (dropped D, down 1 more step)

be a few wrong notes especially in the fast/hard to hear parts.
also, pay attention to which guitar is playing what, shown above
the riff when the guitars are playing different notes.


 (0:02)

 play 4x -> this riff sounds fuller if you always hit the open C with every note
