PANTERA
The Art Of Shredding
INTRO — Bass and Drums (bass is just low E chuggin’)
P.M. P.M. REPEAT both bars once
|———————-|—————————————|
|———————-|—————————————|
|———————-|——————-(some weird ass—–|
|—-2————1—-|—2———–1—–harmonic whammy—|
|—-2————1—-|—2———–1———————–|bar crap- some of
|—-0——0———-|—0——0—————————-|Darrell’s best!)
I don’t have a trem, but I
know the second time the
|P.M.| note is a 2-octave A
|———————————|
|———————————|
|———————————| Darrell plays with artificial
|———4-2———————| harmonics on a few notes,
|————-5–4–2—2–4——| listen up and you can
|-0–2—————-5——5—-| figure it out.

|—————————————————–| positive
|–4—–4—–5—–5—–4—–4–5—–5—-5–4—| about this
|—–2—–2—–2—–2—–2——–2—–2——–| part)
|—————————————————–|
right after that riff hit a bunch of C#’s then a huge D —
here we go! !
This is the MASSIVE RIFF for the chorus (right before
P.M. the verse starts)
|—————————————| ————–|

|——-8—4——7—3——6-7/6-5—| –8-9-9—98–|
|–0-0–6——-0–5——-0–4-5——-| –6-7-7—76–|
that chord in between the end of the chorus riff and the verse is a hard F#
the verse riff is just a palm muted progression of notes-
it goes from E to G# to E to A#
P.M.——————————| 1st time only

|—————————|–8—–|
|—————————|–8—–|

this riff’s kinda tricky — it’s hard to keep the D# staccato

SHHHHRRRRREEEEDDDD!!!
P.m.- P.M. – –
|——————————|
|——————————|
|——————————| this part’s very strange
|——————————| to look at, just listen
|-6-6—–6/76–66—–4——| to get the feel right
|-4-4–0–4/54–44–0–2-0–0-| (also, I think that slide
from G# to A may
actually be a bend)
then do a chromatic descent from A# into the blitzkrieg!
ok, solo’s next– you guys are on your own for that baby!!
There’s a lot of cool bends and a TON of stretching involved
I suppose the last thing is the chorus and that descending Eb thing–
there’s a harmony that’s something like this on the last time–
RIGHT!
