Tune down one whole step (DGCFAd)

One of the most brutal thrash/death tunes ever. Gives

a hard time for your left hand, but then again, tell

me one old Kreator song which doesn't!!

Btw, try to play the whole album along with the record

without pausing between songs. If you can do that, you're

a true thrash guitar-master ;)
