Morbid Angel's
"God Of Emptiness"
>From the albulm:  Covenant 



     I figured that it's about time someone contributes a little more to the
Morbid Angel section of OLGA.  In my opionion, this song contains one of the
best methodical riffs in the metal genre, and is a good example of the merits
that Death Metal has to offer.  So here goes the whole thing:

Be sure to tune the guitars down 3 whole steps to (Bb, Eb, Ab, Db, F, Bb) to
simulate the detuned 7 string guitar that Trey plays on this song.  I play it 
on my guitar that's detuned only 2 1/2 steps, (for Carcass songs) and it sounds
just fine to me.
