Dimmu Borgir - Stormblast Live guitar tab
"Stormblast" as performed live by Dimmu Borgir on Dynamo Open Air '98,
Waldrock '98 and in Poland (from "Goddless Savage Garden")
Normal tuning (EADGBe)
I think this is one of DB's best songs. Since I don't have the album Stormblast
yet, this is the transcription from the live-version. This transcription is not
complete, but it's a start.
