This song came out about a year ago, i think. It is an awesome song to play
and mosh out to. You have to hear it to know exactly how it goes because
is has parts that are hard to understand just by reading some tab. Here it is.

Yeah!!

That is it. Not many hard chords but a lot of different variation with the
chords and drums. Give a listen to the song if you can before you play it.
Otherwise it will be hard to play. Join me next time, same bat time, same
bat channel
