*while watching videos of Torche when Juan was still in the band, you can see him doing
some fairly different things
every time he plays this song. sometimes he plays what i've tabbed, others he just
improvises and does a series of
pulloffs and bends, etc etc. so, i tabbed it as an octaved version of the lower part,
which is how Steve was playing
it live (with assistance from a pedal) when they were a three piece.*

guitar 2: this part is basically just very rapid strumming on an A chord played at the
14th fret,
the D note (15th fret/b string) comes in after the heavy riff has repeated 4 times,
plays for two
cycles of that, and goes back to the C# note for the last remaining cycle of the heavy
riff. i'm
confident that almost anyone can pick out the proper rhythm/tempo to strum at, so i took
the lazy
way out in tabbing this section.

There aren't many Torche tabs online, and the ones out there aren't overly accurate, so
I decided to give it a shot.
I personally enjoy play this song on a guitar tuned AEADBGE, i find that playing the
heavy end riffs with full power
chords sounds as good as playing it as an octave/5th chord like on the record. but, do
whatever works for you!
email me at ifrigginshred at hotmail dot com with any comments/corrections. hope this helps.
