/ Kreator / Pleasure to kill (1986) / The Pestilence guitar tab

The Pestilence
As recorded by Kreator
(from the 1986 Album Pleasure to Kill)

Tune down one whole step (DGCFAd)

One of the best songs from the album, even if every song
is a ***ing classic. I've said it before but I'll say it
again: It's a ***ing crime if you don't own this album!!
