 tuning is D-G-C-F-A-D, all strings down one step.
 this is the tuning he uses, not drop d. please vote
 on my tab, at least for my time and hard work.

 "open" is the first track on the cd and is basically
 an intro that blends into "point #1", which is track 2
 on the cd. here we go, starting with "open":

 palm mute all of the open notes, and for the x'ed
 notes, mute with both your palm and your fretting hand
|------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------|
|------------x---------------x---------------x---|
|------------x---------------x---------------x---|
|---0-0-0-0--x--0-0-0-0-0-0--x--0-0-0-0-0-0--x---|
    m m m m     m m m m m m     m m m m m m

 put more emphasis on the 9th fret; you don't even
 have to play the note in parenthesis, it sounds the same

|----------------------------------------|
|---(11)--(11)--(11)--(11)--(11)--(11)---|
|----------------------------------------|
|-----9-----9-----9-----9-----9-----9----|
|----------------------------------------|

 continue with the same pattern as before
|------------------------------------------------|

|------------x---------------x---------------x---|

|---0-0-0-0--x--0-0-0-0-0-0--x--0-0-0-0-0-0--x---|
    m m m m     m m m m m m     m m m m m m

 be sure to slide from the 1st fret to 9th fret first

|---------------------------------------------|
|--------(11)--(11)--(11)--(11)--(11)--(11)---|
|---------------------------------------------|
|---1/9----9-----9-----9-----9-----9-----9----|

 once again

 hi-hat for a few seconds then this:

 no palm mute, but quickly mute the strings right
 after hitting the last note of each burst
|------------------------------------------------|
