Mayhem � Deathcrush
From the Album Deathcrush, originally printed in 1000 copies in 1987,
and re-released in 1993 on CD.

Tuning: C(D could do)


Riff A
|------------------------------|
|------------------------------|
|------------------------------|
|----------4-3------------3-3--|
|-2-2-5--2-2-1---2-2-5--2-1-1--|
|-0-0-3--0-------0-0-3--0------|



Riff B

|---------------------------------------------|
|-777788887777888877778888/12-12-12-1210-10-10|
|-555566665555666655556666/10-10-10-10-8-8-8-8|

The whole riff is played fast in the same tempo, but the end has ��� between the
power-grips to show that you play at fret nr 8,10 and 12�
  It may also sound better and more groovy if you play only 3 strokes on each
notes and only stroke down, not up and down. Do what you like best. 


Riff C
|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|
|-7-------7-------7�-(7)--6-6-6--|
|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4--|
Fast.
I often let out the (7). This is different on some of the releases
and live shows.

Riff D
|-----------|
|-----------|
|-----------|
|-----------|
|-7~--------|
|-5~--------|

Bass comes in and plays intro riff(Bass-line of riff A)




Riff E is played over corresponding bass part
Riff E

|-3-3---------------------------|

Bass continues� 

Riff F
|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
|-2~-1~-2-2-5-2-6-5-----------------|
|-------0-0-3-0-4-3-----------------|

There should be no problem to find out where riff E and F is played along with the bass.

Riff G
|-----------------------------------|

|-777788887777888877778888(77776666)|
|-555566665555666655556666(55554444)|

The ending that is inside()is played on some live recordings. I�ve seen it on
DVD, and heard it on CD. Do what you think sounds best.
Again, you can take three down strokes, instead of stroking up and down.
