Forward:
The intro is a fast triplet based riff, which can be pretty tricky to get
used to, especially since it begins on the upside of a beat. There’s also
the string skipping near the end. The verse riff is pretty straight
forward except the octave pedal(not sure),makes one think there’s more there.
Note for note it should be pretty close, though I was not sure as the slowdown
utility I use did not like the Octave Pedal in the recording. I believe it’s a
pedal? or bass...two guitars...there’s not enough info on this band available
to find out, sorry.
