this is the best tab i have ever seen for blackened...rock on brothers and sisters
I love this tab! I strongly recommend that Metal Madness be ignored and to continue playing the intro written by either Matt or Timi.
Not sure if u've seen James in concert videos before ... but he starts off blackened at the seventh fret... not 2. Either way ... Good tab .. Rock on people
This tab ass kicks!!!
ok well the intro you put down sounds right but its not it is played on the 7nth fret like metal madness said and the rest of the intro is off a bit but it does sound close but keep trying bud
