Bottom Feeder - Corrosion of Conformity
by paul@axcomp.com/paul.halvorson@bbs.axcomp.com
Intro - Have the bass play the main riff, and make some noise with your
guitar. Try to make it not fit, and get lost of feedback to give
it that COC touch.
???? Part - I usually play something out of an E minor blues scale.

Not sure what's played here
Here's another way to play the main riff of the song...
Play a couple of times

I think this part works a little better, because of the part where they slide
Way up on the neck. The most of the riff doesn't sound as heavy as if it's
played like above, but you just can't get it to sound right, no matter where
you slide to on the 6th string. The 1/19~~~ is just a guide of what to
do. Go
Crazy on it.
Way #3 to play main riff.......
***** Drop D Tuning ****
This could actually be how they play it on the album, but...

Here's where i'd like to make some requests. For years I have been trying
to figure out Witchfinder General by Witchfinder General. If anyone knows how
to play ANY of that song, please e-mail me!!!!!! Also, I am looking for the
solos from Holocaust - Death of Glory and Metallica's ...And Justice For All
(especially the one that James plays).

P.S. For all of you out there who don't know Spanish, when "el come
abajo" is translated, it literally means "the feeder of the bottom"
