Hey there everyone, this is my first official tab done by ear. I do not feel it
is 100% correct yet but I do feel it is really damn close, just some minor
things that may be off a touch, and since no one has tabbed this badass
Introduction song to Testaments album (The Formation of Damnation) I thought
I would help everyone out. I feel this is at least a good place to start for
someone with more experience than me to complete it with a more accurate sound
I guess. I am sorry I have not figured out the background soloing yet, I will
update this tab when I have figured that part out, but as for now I present you
with a kickass riff that will have your neighbors bangin their heads. Please
feel free to comment, anything I can do to help improve this is more than
welcome. Thanks for the feedback and have fun.
P.S. Throw a nice bit of reverb on and it sounds even better.
