Song
ARTIST: Carcass
SONG: Ruptured in Purulence
TRANSCRIBED BY: Thomas Abraham
NOTE: THERE WERE PARTS IN THIS SONG THAT I HAD TROUBLE DECIPHERING
BY EAR SO I HAD TO WATCH THE "WAKE UP AND SMELL THE CARCASS" VIDEO
TO COMPLETE THIS. THE FOLLOWING IS THEREFORE COMPLETE AND ACCURATE.
REMEMBER, TUNE DOWN 2.5 STEPS TO B. ENJOY!

PLAY SOLO OVER THE LAST TWO REPEATS OF RIFF K
NOTE: THIS IS NOT THE ENTIRE SOLO, JUST THE BEGINNING DONE ROUGHLY.
IT IS TOO HARD FOR ME TO FIGURE OUT BECAUSE FIRSTLY, I'M A BASSIST,
AND SECONDLY, MY VCR DOES NOT HAVE A SLOW MOTION OPTION SO I CAN SEE
WHAT BILL STEER'S FINGERS DO ON THE "WAKE UP AND SMELL THE CARCASS"
VIDEO. E-MAIL ME IF YOU CAN FIGURE OUT THIS SOLO: GRINDFANATIC@
