OK this one hasn't got any guitar in it at all, but I thought I'd
transcribe the arrangement for guitar anyway. I've tabbed this as
being played with a clean guitar tone and using mostly octaves, but
you could play it with power chords or single notes depending on
what sort of atmosphere you are aiming to create. As a precursor
to "Invocation To Seditious Heresy" though, I think that an
undistorted version offers a more appropriate lead in.
