Could be reworked to be played on a 6 string in B standard. Most of the main riffs will be fine, just some of the lead lines and harmonies.

I finally got a 7 string! I've loved this song for years since I first heard the Shogun album so it seemed fitting to learn it properly (and a bit easier than Meshuggah...)

The main riffs are fairly straight forward in terms of metal guitar playing. The trickiest part for me was the fast run before the last chorus and the stretchy part in the solo.

Overall a metal classic and well worth learning because the bridge riffs still hit hard!

Recording/mixing - all me

Full disclosure - the video and audio are done separately as it makes for a nicer video for all!
