Karl Sanders uses rather vintage equipment, kinda surprising considering
the death metal style. Anyway, Nile tunes to Drop-A tuning, seems strange
on 6-string guitars, but that's what they do, I've e-mailed Karl to find
out their tuning. This riff is the middle part of Barra Edinazzu, it's the
only riff I have because my pitch is not very good so I can't figure out
stuff very well. However, when I saw them live, I watched Karl closely,
and this is how he played the middle riff.

then the riff changes to tremolo picking as follows.

I know it's only two riffs, but I thought I should post 'em anyways.
