An Elegy Of Icaros


Song:An Elegy of Icaros Artist:Emperor Album:IX Equilibrium Tabbed by:thegreateye@hotmail.com This song is difficult . I make note of most of the little inflictions that I play , like I use lots of slides when I play this . Not neccesarily in the song (maybe ?) but It definetly sounds good . If anyone has any corrections please mail them to me ...
