** EVIL DEAD
** by DEATH

EVIL DEAD - A pretty Epic sounding song, and damn easy to play too!
Of course, I do not guarantee that this transcription is 100% correct, but
I reckon that it is pretty damn close! Most of you will probably have no
trouble working it out yourself, but hell, there are always those of us who
are just beginning and appreciate anything that others can give!
Format :
[i] First the RIFFS
[ii] Then the structure of the song

EVIL DEAD - STRUCTURE:
** Introduction:
RIFF A: Repeat x 2
(On the end of the second repeat, Lead bit is a trill (10-12-10-12-???) where
other guitar holds an A Power chord (ie. The very first one played in RIFF A!))
Pick slide noises, then:
RIFF B: Repeat x 8
RIFF C: Once
RIFF B: Repeat x 4
RIFF C: Once
RIFF B: Repeat x 4
** Lead Break:
RIFF C: Once
RIFF B: Repeat x 4
RIFF C: Once
RIFF B: Repeat x 4
(Hold Chord on Last one)
** Back to Song:
RIFF B: Repeat x 8
RIFF C: Once
RIFF B: Repeat x 4
RIFF C: Once
and END.. Simple huh! Now, how about transcribing that Lead break!
(Enjoy! See ya soon with some OBITUARY, F&J, and some HEATHEN! (I hope!))
