Text File

Glenn off of Slint's self-titled EP.  Pretty easy stuff, I guess.  Although I have
guitar pieces labled, it should be noted that the whole song pretty much melts together as
big riff, give or take a few differences.

Tuning (from low to high): EADGBe
/ = slide.  ~ = vibrado.

    riff 2

After this the bass playes an open A string palm muted, switching between what sounds
plain distortion and distortion + wah all the way down.  I know it sounds like the guitar
doing this, but if you pay attention you can not only hear the guitar still playing riff 
but you'll notice that the A note is way way too low and still retaining clear tone to
a guitar.
