MELANCHOLY EMPEROR
As recorded by Cathedral
(From the 2001 Album ENDTYME)
Words and Music by Jennings/Dorrian/Dixon/Smee
Transcribed by Jefferson Camargo (JEFFMETAL)
E-mail:utopianblaster@terra.com.br
On the trying to make a 'back to the roots' with Endtyme, Cathedral
succeeded and the first track on the album shows that the heaviness
is present as ever.
Gaz delievers a memorable riff on the chorus and his trademark
crawling, zombified riffs in the middle section and a blistering
guitar solo.
