Distorted Fanatic

Tab

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

Comments: Nasty Savage ruled. Most metal fans these days have absolutely no idea who they are, although I wouldn't have either had I not gotten lucky looking through a bargin bin one day. The few people who remember them seem to agree that either "Nasty Savage" or "Penetration Point" was their best album, but I prefer "Indulgence". Anyway, I think the tab came out great, although I couldn't figure out what guitar two way playing on the outro (probably the same thing one octave higher). E-mail me in regards to the tab, i.e. you find any mistakes. Later.
