This is another song by the Flemish (Belgian) pride Ancient
Rites : Aris. I’ve seen this one tabbed some while ago too
And yet again a big disgrace ! No offence, but I don’t think
That tab was worth the effort. I’m not saying mine is, but
At least it’s a bit more accurate and detailed. I’m sure
There will be some things that I’ve forgotten or tabbed in-
Correctly but now you don’t have an excuse anymore NOT to
Make some AR covers ! Expect more AR tabs soon !

This is all tremelopicked. The amount of notes is not 
correct of course, but I tried to get the relations
between the amount of notes right. Still getting me ?
The whole thing is repeated two times !               _

On the second repeat the tabbed out backing is repeated
Twice, but because I didn’t have enough space to tab
The whole thing in one bar. Ofcourse the timing doesn”t
Correspond with the backing anymore but it’s already
Given in the first bar.

I can’t quiet figure out if there is a backing with
This riff and if so it’s very hard to distinguish it
From the rest of the sound so I don’t think anyone
Will mind if I just tab out the main riff.

This is all tremelopicked. The amount of notes is not 
correct of course, but I tried to get the relations
between the amount of notes right.
