Band: Dying Fetus
Album: Destroy The Opposition
Song: Praise The Lord (Opium of the Masses)
Tuning: Drop C - (Low to High) C G C F A D
This song is originally tuned to C# (a step and a half down) (Low to High)
C# F# B E G# C# but I awhile back I figured I'd play it in Drop C
because I was too lazy to retune my guitar, and I also prefer to play
drop tuning power chords. This is the same song and same notes, just
transposed from C# to Drop C, which makes it easier in some parts and
more difficult in others, and it took me awhile to transpose but wasn't
hard because I went off a different tab.
Credit for the song goes to John Gallagher, Jason Netherton, Sparky Voyles
& Kevin Talley of Dying Fetus
Credit for tabbing goes to the person who tabbed it out...
http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/d/dying_fetus/praise_the_lord_tab.htm
It's credited as tabbed out by Sean Beasley, the current bassist of
Dying Fetus
Credit also goes to the fellows in these videos...

If it wasn't for the above mentioned links I wouldn't have been able to tab
this out. So thank you gentlemen.
I do not own the rights to this song and I did not write this song.
It's a very kick ass song by a very kickass band. Enjoy.
