So I just got into this band. Have the notation (sheet music and tabs!) for a four string and a five string. So my question is.. to those of you that can play this song...
Any way I should approach it? This song is crazy fast and extreme. I'm having trouble on it but nothing that is going to deffer me. So please got any tips for me?

Start slowley, then build up when you feel comfortable, then practise at that speed, repete steps 2+3 untill at the speed f the song

I'm not sure it works for the whole song, but I found the intro is much easier to play if you tune your D string down to C.

Otherwise, play it using the C on the 8th fret of the E string to reduce the stretches you have to make. Plus you're right below the "doodley-doodley" fill.

Use a metronome, slow one part down to a crawl until you REALLY nail it, then increase the speed gradually. Then do that with the other parts. Eventually play the whole song slowly. Then build it up. It's not an easy tune.

thanks!
