"Slowly Passing the Frostlands/ A Winterland" by Opthalamia off the album "Via Dolorosa" Tabbed by Rob Hartzog I am confident that this tab is correct, since I plugged my guitar into my stereo and played along with the cd. I'm not sure, however, of the positions, so switch them around to find what's most comfortable for you to play. h = hammer-on p = pull-of . = palm mute / = slide up \ = slide down \\\ = pick scratch It should be noted that on parts that I thought might look confusing or hard to read tabbed out (Riffs 3 and 12), I put numbers underneath the notes in order to aid in counting.
