pretty cool.

repeat that for verse parts, sometimes it may not be palm muted.
gtr 1 will play the intro riff over verse part, you have to figure
out when though

and the final part the little fill/riff deal that comes at the end
of some of the verses.

gtr 1 plays

I dont know the solo at this time, but you can play over the 
verse in G minor pentatonic, which is what their guitarist does, 
or any other scale that fits.  Hope you enjoy.  If you have any 
questions email me at Bryzor@aol.com.  Later
