Notes : Severed Savior utilize varying dgrees of palm muting in this
song so be careful to read any notes or instructions above
each riff. Also, the solo will not be absolutely perfect as
it's played at a fair old pace but it should be close enough
for most.

Riff A: All notes are lightly palm muted unless notated otherwise

Solo 1: The bars here are more of a guide than anything, although
they are probably not that dissimilar to the backing.
However, I recommend that you listen to the CD for the
correct timing and phrasing.

I'm quite happy with how this turned out - especially considering
how technical this song gets on numerous occasions. Despite this,
I don't profess this tab to be perfect so any corrections are
welcome. In addition, any suggestions or comments are welcome.
Also, I encourage you to register a rating that reflects the
quality of this tab. The only way I know that a tab needs
improving or not is if people give it an accurate rating.
Thanks in advance.
