Careful to that "7\"...it's an octave higher, coz I preferred
not tuning down one string. This occurs somewhere else for the same reason,
e.g. some very low sliding down in the end of the song, which are not
written here 'cause they're much distorted and probably Tom used (again)
a 5 string bass. Since I don't believe theseslides are "vital" for the song
I chose to take some tunes an octave higher and....well, that's it! :)
There's a hole in my soul and it's killin' me forever it's a place...
