This riff lasts through the rest of the song. It has one
variation, which uses more of the open E string, but the same chords.
Note: I play all the chords of Fig.6 with the root on the E
string because of the sliding of the last chord in the sequence (B in
first; C in second), especially the last chord of the song.

| Yeah, the song is about rape, but it's a little deeper than that. It's about holding a girl hostage and her captor submitting her to various sexual and physical abuse. The speaker in this song gets off on causing intense pain to others, kind of like sadomasochism but more intense and immoral. This kind of shit happens all the time. Anyway, great song. Really fast and intense. | |
