Artist: Metallica
Song: The Call of Ktulu 
Album: Ride the Lightning

The call of ktulu is an amazing instrumental along with Orion
 (M.O.P). metallica really do push back the limits of guitaring in many of their songs and the call of ktulu is none such exemption. 

this tab DOES look long and difficult but if you listen to the song you will realise most riffs are repeated a lot

enjoy!
