This is the full tab (apart from the solo) of Thou Shalt Suffer's 
"Into the Woods of Belial". This is a really good classic early 
Death/Black metal albumn starring Ihsahn and Samoth of Emperor. This 
albumn is a must have in anyone's collection. This is the first song 
off that album, and it is also my first attempt at tabing a song. 
But don't worry this should all be correct.......Enjoy!! 

Tuning: You must tune your guitar all the way down to "C" before 
you will be able to play along with this. 

NOTATION: 

H - hammer on 
P - pull off 
B - bend 
M - palm mute

Riff 9 - this is the riff over which the solo is played. 
Maybe i'll figure it out some day. The first time this 
riff is played, only the bass plays the first four notes.

Riff 4 to the outro
