Muse - MK Ultra
The Resistance (2009)
This was tabbed by ear/sight, as all other tabs had the wrong intro riff.
The making of DVD shows Matt playing at this octave on the top two strings,
so the riff is definitely correct. Not positive about which string the
"heavy" riffs are played on but all has the right notes.
