N.B. This song is actually tuned down a whole step, but fuck it. The only parts where this is noticable, are in Fill 2 and Riff 7,
where natural harmonics and open low D notes are used respectively. However, the entire song is correct to my ear. I'd make a
another version tuned down a whole step, but there isn't really any point - It sounds fucken cool the way it is.
Anyway enjoy people, feel free to contact me via email for any queries, etc.


"As humanity hurtles into the new millenium, unlocks new scientific discoveries and becomes repressed by techonological advances,
 may we look upon our Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia as a refuge of liberal selves, to seek and hold the roots of our
 creation, through the infinity that is music." - Matthew D. Jones.
