Blindside - December In Sweden guitar tab
"December In Sweden"
by Blindside
Non-album demo, from the "Silence" sessions
tabulture interpreted/written/transcribed by Zak Hall

Note: this is my best interpretation of what is being played, and is probably
in some way inaccurate, and I am aware of that, however,
I put this out here because I believe it is close enough to place out there,
and is probably more accurate than most unofficial tabs,
because I am avidly against stupidly inaccurate tabs.
legend:
#'s (1,2,3...) = fret number/note to be held,
not finger placed there necessarily
x =palm mute
x##...=palm mute fret number
|| =end of phrase/measure(s)
|||| = repeat phrase/measure(s)
(#) = harmonics (on that fret)
x(#) = harmonic strum
# + # = hammer-on
# * # = pull-off
@# = vibrato
# ^ (#) = bend note up (#) steps
# / # = slide up
# \ # = slide down
$# = sweep pick
[#] = optional (would fit, and/or sounds like it's being played, though not certain)
#______ = hold out
Tuning:
Down a half-step
(Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, eb)
Note: For future reference, throughout this tab,
the strings will be labeled without the flats,
however they are still in the tuning above,
this merely saves me, the tabber, time.
