I hope you don't have trouble reading this. On a couple of the
bars, I will write TWO GUITARS' worth of tab. In the intro and
main riff of this song, Slayer uses two guitars playing different
notes to attain a "dissonant" effect that is pure genius. But I
want to show it to you on the same staff so that it will be easier
to see where the two guitars play the same thing and where they
differ. In respects, it will actually be easier. Tuning for this one
is half step down, drop D. The WHOLE song is played on the
top two strings. I won't bother tabbing the solo, since it isn't even
a solo! It's just Kerry King making noise!
