This tab will need a few adjustments done to it, as I have only just got the album, I will need some time to work out the solo, but bare with me!
I'm surprised nobody has tabbed this song yet; it's brilliant, and really easy to play!

Song starts with spoken bit, then play.

(Listen to the CD to figure out how many times this is played for accurate timing. It is played roughly 16 times or more) 

During the rhythm, there is a phase sound that sounds like a long echoing blip. I have an Ibanez PM7 pedal that makes the same sound. I think I have got the correct pitch it is played too. It will only be playable if you have 2 guitarists, which explains the length of time it is taking to get the solo. 

Guitar 2 verse, clean sound with phase modulator, speed setting: 5.5-6.5

That is the maim gist of the song so far, once I get the solo done (Should not take too long I hope.) I shall load it up.

Considering Shawn Crahan of Slipknot is in the band, it is totally different to slipknot!! Some songs are a cross between QOTSA and Stone Temple Pilots, even a NIN style track. Definitely my contender for album of the year so far, but Machine head is out on the 27th! OH DEAR!!!!! Decisions, decisions.
