Note: This is my favourite song from the album (that and Cold Demons). It's not
actually that hard to play (all riffs are played fairly fast) but there are
loads of different fills and variations, which is quite common with Vader. All
the fast picking parts are not accurate but listen to the song for lengths and
timings.
