IT'S SO DAMN EASY - My Vitriol

Standard Tuning (E A D G B e)
I've tried to show the rhythm chords above the lead parts written in tab.
There's a lot of doubling going on in this song (ie. the lead guitar is
reinforcing Som's vocal melody a lot).
Most of it is pretty simple to do; just pick out the root note of the chord
being played and drone it an octave higher with lots of chorus, phaser and
delay. Easier said than done eh? Well, this is a pretty good start I think.
It's all the main bits. What isn't shown, make up. It'll sound fine.

This slides into Riff #1 and #2. Then:

* The C5 is played an octave lower than everything else. Set your whammy
or pitchshifter for one octave down and release/toe back for the high
part. This is a lot like "Ode to the Red Queen" from FINELINES.
