I'm not really familiar with Morbid Angel, I haven't heard many songs from them.
So, I'm not sure of what tuning or chords Azagthoth is using in this song.
I also don't have a seven string guitar like he does.
So, in other words, this tab is not that accurate. It's just to give you an idea
of how it goes.
I think the tuning is 3 steps down for a six-string, standard for a seven-string
(at least it sounds like it to me). the tab is for a seven string. if you want
to play it on a detuned six-string, just ignore the topmost line of the tab.
there's 3 riffs and 2 fill in the song.
here's the song structure:
A x 19 times
B x 2 times
A x 8 times
B x 2 times
A x 8 times
fill 1 x 1 time

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official MORBID ANGEL tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
