THE SUMMONING
(As recorded by GRIP INC.
from the 1997 album Nemesis)
VERSION 1.0 - october 2003
Transcribed by Cristi Rachitovan
mail: decietful@hotmail.com
IRC: undernet's #metal as "Stromblad"
... = palm mute h = hammer-on ah = artificial harmonic
/,\ = slide p = pull-off nh = natural harmonic
~ = vibrato " = tremolo pick < = fade in
Ok, now i wont tab every little detail that's in this song. This is how the
riffs are played most of times. If Sorychta played an art. harm. on 4th
repeat of a riff i didn't bother to write that down. My goal is to write
a correct, as short and as easy to read as possible transcription.
Tune to 1 whole step down (DGCFAD).
INTRO (w/ wah-wah pedal & some flange effect)
