The only tab on here, and the only one you'll ever need for this song. great job!

what can i say? Great tab. Use this one a lot :) lordi have a great writing style/ great rhythm guitar, and a bit that gives the lead guitarist in us all a chance to solo. 5 stars man.

Perfect except the last part in solo. Instead of: |--17-15----------------------------------------| |--------17-15----------------------------------| |-------------------17-14~~---------------------| |--------------17-------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------| I'd put: |--19-15----------------------------------------| |--------19-15----------------------------------| |-------------------19-16~~---------------------| |--------------19-------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------------| it sounds better for me. Anyway great tab :)
