Intro This intro is a back and forth thing
between guitar 1 and guitar 2. Watch the tab closely because they
change what they do each time around...

Main theme riffing
This is fun riffing...
Be sure to not get too sloppy with it, the notes need to be clear.
Guitars 1 and 2 are both playing the same parts, and they each have their
own speaker.

Transition Riff
This is a riff that's used to
break up sections. Normally if there were a vocalist it would have no
vocals on it to rock the crowd and give them a break from the guy screaming his
head off... LOL

Acoustic interlude -
3/4 Time
This had to be thrown in
there as it's a mainstay for Metallica.. I've used many Metallica
style techniques here including harmonized leads. Please see the video for
help, tips, and an explanation of all of this..

SOLO
As always the rhythm under
the solo is very important.. With this music the solos are usually
very wild. Metallica though was always very good about adding in some good
sounding phrasing sections. Not that other bands didn't but Metallica did
a good job of keeping the leads interesting, which isn't easy to do with this
rapid music...
You're soloing over a very busy
drum beat and a busy guitar riff.. See tabs below for both the solo and
the rhythm under it.
Rhythms: NO WAH on the rhythms please..

Outro
This is just a big Metal
ending with a little double bass 101 in there.. Watch the timing
though, this is great timing practice because if everything doesn't hit just
right the whole thing gets thrown off..

**Guitars
1 and 2 play: Notice there are 6
hits of the power chord this time, not just the 4 that we normally do in
our transition riff. The bass drum is doing 8 fast 16th notes on this
ending part. The guitar fills in the remaining 2 left over after with
muted hits of the open 6th string, which is indicated in the tab below with x's.
