Riff A
RIff B
(1:58)
Just hit a fatty open strum and hold it while he sings "Kiiiiinnngggdoom!"
Verse Rhythm
Last riff of chorus...
Goes into...
Strum pattern is pretty simple, just goes back from chords on open and 4
Verse Rhythm
(Sometime the Rhythm 'doubles up', listen for it, its very tricky)
There are lots of little background guitar sounds during this part,
i say make up your own
Crazy Drum Solo
(4:29)
Some harmonics here, not sure where he does them!
(5:03)
Palm Muted stuff
and sometimes
plus other guitar tracks playing same thing on A and D strings
with build up to G right before "ITS OUR NAAATUUREEE"
Most confusing part of any song i've ever listened to. Definitely two guitars dubbed
each other in studio.
