A short selection from their earliest album.
Comments:
I will only use the necessary strings for each riff, so be careful to
make sure you're playing on the right strings.
There are some noticeable tempo variations in this song. I've tried
to give an idea of when it slows down, and included the exact bpm tempos
in a few places for those of you are familiar with such things.
Notation explanation:
/=3=\Generally one dash is a sixteenth note in length. So ---- is one beat. Sometimes there's a lot of double digit fret positions or notation symbols so I have to stretch it out more. When that happens I'll use the usual method of writing the note lengths underneath each note. q=quarter (1 beat) e=eighth (1/2 beat) s=sixteenth (1/4 beat) Uppercase signifies a rest. Guitars are tuned to Eb. Guitarists are Bob Rusay (LeftGtr) and Jack Owen (RightGtr). The lyrics are here for you to growl, but the words are _very_ unintelligable on this album.
Tempo: 270 bpm
Play Riff A 8x Riff B (slower, tempo: 200 bpm) /=3=\ /=3=\ /=3=\ /=3=\ /=3=\ /=3=\ /=3=\ /=3=\

Play Riff D 4x with lyrics:
They enter your tomb
Beginning to feast Crawling on you
Now they eat you Rotting maggots
Infesting your corpse Parasites of the dead
Now a very fast slowdown to 130 bpm:Play Riff E 4x with lyrics (as in first verse): Lying there cold after a torturous death Your life ended...
I see from the liner notes that Glen Benton from Deicide does some
guest vocals on this song. I guess that's where the background guys are
screaming .
