D.A.D. "Rim of Hell"
as performed on the Warner Bros. Album "No Fuel Left For the Pilgrims"

Transcribed by Anand Kumar (st001904@hrz1.hrz.tu-darmstadt.de;
HalfIndy@aol.com), because nobody else wanted to do it!
Are there really NO D.A.D. Fans out there, uh?

sl = slide
bu = bend up full note
8(10) = hold string at 8th fret and bend it as if playing the 10th
rb = release bend
(10)8 = prebend the string while holding at the 8th fret, then release it.
d = downstroke
u = upstroke
[5] = artificial harmonic, hit the string with short side of pick and the
flesh of your thumb simultaneously, with a little luck the note should
"sing".
bq = bend a 1/4 note


I wrote the dudus only to mark the sixteenths. I'm not so sure about some
voicings (especially in the PRECHORUS), but I liked the sound of these best
with the distortion I used. However with other degrees of distortion other
voicings mind sound more "original".

The intro/chorus-riff and the verse-riff can also be played at the fifth
fret, if you prefer that position. Just play the same notes as in this
transcription, beginning with the A at the fifth fret on the low E-string.

Okay, now let's forget about rhythm, because I just can't figure it for the
solo in reasonable time! The bars separate the licks how I see them, this
has nothing to do with the beat of the song! Just the notes:

something like this??????????

Then comes a descent over the whole fretboard in A blues, Uuuoof, too much
to figure out note by note. Just play ANYTHING and descent to 3rd fret.

The End!
Correct this, I'll learn it!
