Please e-mail me any death/black tab you have
If you do this I will send you(if you leave your e-mail)
the list of my black/death tabs

This Tablature was created with TabExpert V.1.0.00 by Ugo Gasparri

Note about the song : Big part of the riffs of this song
are followed by the keyboard,
this is another difficulty when
transcribing it.If you find something
wrong probably it's because of this
I found both the guitar solos
but i did'n write them down
Ask me a new version using e-mail

This is the intro

Try to play the "10" on the D string very
attacched to the "6" on G string

This riff is played under the lyrics
I think it's fully correct
If you want you can add the rithmic guitar

Alternate the end sections 1 and 2

Fill riff.This part is mostly

Under the guitar solo there is a

but it's a little different
