Note:Palm muting on this song is very important, it's what gives
     the rhythm its crunchy sound. So if you don't do it it will      
     sound all f*#?ked up. Also on this song there are alot of small
     variations on just about every riff, so listen for them and you 
     can figure them out easily. For best sound play through an 
     Overdrive. It has a warmer tone than a distortion petal, and is 
     what Obituary used on most of thier songs.
