Swamp Pussy by Babes In Toyland
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This may be the more difficult way to play this, but I've seen live videos of it and
Kat's hands don't move past the first three frets in the main riff, and it sounds more
correct this way versus if you were to play the power chords only. It's pretty simple to
play, although speed might be an issue with the main riff since it's played in pretty
quick succession.
