Blood Pigs Guitar Tablature
Tuning: drop C
Key: 
/ = slide
< > = natural harmonics (with a number inside)
pm = palm mute
* = I think at these points they use an octave pedal,
which they just push down and it makes the notes sound an octave lower.
If you don't have one of these, The song still sounds alright.

I'm pretty sure Otep uses six string guitars, and they only have one guitarist.
One possibility I have heard of, instead of using an octave pedal, is to buy
strings made for a 7-string guitar and not use the smallest one, therefore giving
you a lower sound, but I'm not sure if Otep does this.  (Note- don't try to do this yourself,
you need to get your guitar slightly altered for it to work right and not
screw it up.  Take it to a music store and they should do it for free or cheap, and
that way you don't have to risk messing up your guitar at all, and you can't blame me :-)
If you know what method they use, please email me at
[email protected]  Thanks!

I would like to apologize if I made any mistakes, I'm sorry!
