NOTE: This is my first Absu tab.  I had lots of fun working with it.
I think most guitarist would agree that Absu's riffs can get pretty complex.
It took me around 2 hours to get this one down.  I'll have more Absu tunes
eventually.  This is the rythym guitar..
Whole Tune is Fast/Hyper speed, etc.!!..  Proceed with caution!!...
Also,I spaced out the higher notes/chords so you can tell the differences..

Riff#1.: Slight Palm mute on the open notes..
