I can't make them out as clearly as I'd like to (there are, afterall, a lot of sounds coming at you in their songs -- with the band comprised of 10-12 members. But these are some ideas: |--------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| |---12-12-12-12-12-12------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| And sometimes, I hear something like this: |--5----5----5---------------| |----7----7-----7------------| |----------------------------| |----------------------------| |----------------------------| |----------------------------| Listen closely, sometimes there is a slight alteration in the bassline: |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-----------------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--| |--5-5-5-5-5-0-2-5-----------------5-5-5-5-5-0-2-5------------------| At 2:49 in the song, the bass does this: |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4------------------| |--------------------------------------------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--| Then back to the main guitar riff Then to the main bassline again.

As the song is nearing its end (around the 4:05 mark), one guitar is playing this riff with some weird effect: |--------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| |---11--9--11--9---7-----11-9-11-9--7--------------| |--------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------| I hope this helps out.
