Antisocial

Anthrax
Tab
4.5(20)

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

Notation:

^ = bend [ ^ = half, ^^ = whole, etc. ]

^r = bend and release

x = mute with fret-hand

* = mute with palm-hand

X\\ = pick slide

h = hammer-on

p = pull-off

~ = vibrato

t = tap-on

/ = slide up

\ = slide down

h. = harmonics

ah = artificial harmonic

tr = trill

THIS SONG IS ACTUALLY A LITTLE HARD TO PLAY AT FIRST BUT IT GETS EASY AFTER A WHILE.
