Breakdown (2:30)
Here is the main riff being played:
e|--------------------------------------------------------| B|--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-5-5-5-5---------------| G|--------------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------------------|
After that riff is played once, another guitar comes in tremolo picking,
starting with this pattern (listen to get the timing):
e|--------------------------------------------------------| B|--12t----13t----15t----17t------------------------------| G|--------------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------------------|
After that, it goes into two more choruses, and a third heavily distorted/phased
guitar comes in playing another riff. Haven't had the chance to tab that out yet.
