TITLE - Citizen Erased
ALBUM - Origin Of Symmetry
Tuning: Drop A,
Matt uses a Manson 7-String to play this song but all you need
to do is tune your e string to a low A. it helps a lot if youve got a very thick
guage of strings. A .52 is perfect but a .48 will do aswell.

+this one is just above the 3rd fret
Fiddle around with the harmonics untill you get them right. a Metal Zone is a
Good pedal to use here with its middle frequency's way up high.
