                             Castratikron - Dethklok
E|E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|||
Tabbed by:  Old Rasputin
          
Tuning: C Standard - C F Bb Eb G C


Note: I refer to all note names (letters as though I am in E standard
      because I refuse to re-learn my fretboard in C...

Note: Sometimes I feel it necessary to notate rhythm, My conventions are as
      follows:    
                W = whole note/rest          R = rest
                h = half note/rest        
                q = quarter note/rest        /
                e = eighth note/rest       o/o = repeat previous bar
                s = sixteenth note/rest    /
                h.= dotted half note

                Tied note values are connected with an underscore.
                example: s__(s)  (a 16th tied to another 16th)

                anything under: /--3--\ is a triplet

                Double bar lines indicate the end of parts.

                Bar lines occur every 4 beats.

Section 3
The first arpeggio is a Dm (16th note triplets) the second is a Db (16ths)
But the Dm is so sloppy on the record that I can't quite nail it down no 
matter how much I slow down the recording, so what follows is more of an 
educated guess...

Rhythm guitar just follows the chords outlined by those first 4
arpeggios (Am, Em, Bb, Db) until you get to Section 5 where it 
switches back to Riff 1.

E|E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|||

Repeat Riff 1 again
Repeat Riff 3 4X with additional harmonies (shown below)

Lower Harmony: steady 8ths

C.|-0-7-12-0-7-12-0-7-|-12-0-7-12-0-7-12-0-|-7-12-0-7-12-0-7-12-|
E|-------------------|--------------------|--------------------| Etc...
B|-------------------|--------------------|--------------------|

Upper Harmony: steady 8ths (enters half way through)

C.|-17-19-0-17-19-0-17-19-|-0-17-19-0-17-19-0-17-|-19-0-17-19-0-17-19-0-|
E|-----------------------|----------------------|----------------------| Etc..
B|-----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|

These are tough to hear for sure and there may be more in there...


Repeat Riff 2 4X
Repeat Riff 2 4X with additional harmonies (shown below)

Melody:

    e  e  q    q  q   e e e e e  e  q  
E|-12-10-12~~-| R--R-|-R-8---8-10----10--||      |-10b(12)~~~-||
B|-----------------|-----8------10-----| |4X    |------------||
G|-----------------|-------------------| |      |------------||

Harmony:

G|-----------------------7------9-----| |       |------------||

Also try one or both of these up an octave.

That's all - if anyone has any better suggestions for the harmonies and so 

forth, let me know.

Go forth and shred
