Mors Principium Est - Finality
the first mors principium est song i ever heard, and my favorite. not too hard, i do it
downstroke, but i suppose alternate pickin works too. the main thing about this song as
as difficulty goes is speed.
basically, any note played on the low E is palm muted, i'll let you know if not.
h - hammer on
p - pull off
/ - slide up
...that's pretty much all you need to know for this song.
intro/chorus: 2x
