Therapy? - Screamager

Transcribed by Tim Davis ([email protected]) from the mini-album
"Hats Off To The Insane".

Here's the full, entire, proper version of the song. Everyone seems to
have different ideas about how the first riff (and the rest) goes but
this definitely sounds right when played along with the record. I also
watched a video of them live to work out bits of it so the positions
should be almost exactly correct.


 Key:
   . - above notes indicates a staccato (short, abrupt) note
   b - bend note up to one shown
   r - release bend to note shown or to original note if none given
     (I find it's easier and sounds better if you play the bends
     with the tremolo instead)
   h - hammer on
 P.M. - palm mute the indicated notes (place edge of palm of right hand
     on the strings at the bridge)

   |--   --| repeat section between the markers.
   |*-   -*| ie. - play it twice
   |--   --|   - or, if there are lyrics underneath,
   |--   --|    repeat enough times for those.
   |*-   -*|
   |-- ... --|

TAB Key
--------

	b - bend a semitone (1 fret)
    YbZ - bend the note at fret Y to the same pitch
	   as the note found at fret Z
	mb - microtone bend (see record for further details)
	r - release previous bend
	h - hammer on
	/ - slide up
	\ - slide down
	[xT] - play indicated note 'T' times

Notes
------

Mute all chords throughout.

If you aren't used to using all the fingers on your fretting hand,
then it may take time to get The Riff sounding fluent. The Riff
also appears in the choruses, but isn't played the same every time,
(the differences aren't major).

Verse 2 uses fast, muted picking. The timing isn't rigid - listen
to the record to get the rhythm exactly right.

In the guitar solos make sure the picking on the 'soloing' guitars
is kept even. Solos 1 and 2 are quite similar. The mb's in bars 4
and 8 of Solo 1 (and bar 4 of Solo 2) are almost a semitone.

Solo 3 differs from the format of previous two solos. It also uses
an extra guitar (Guitar3) to play the same notes as Guitar1, but
an octave lower.
