When you hear the intro to this song on the album, you're actually hearing what the
band played backwards. To hear it how the band actually recorded it, put the CD into
your CD drive and use a sound recording software (Sound Recorder, Cool Edit, Sound Forge,
whatever you have on your computer) to record just the beginning. Then you can find the
reverse function and hear it how they recorded it!

In this tab, riffs 1a through 1d is the tab for how they recorded it. Riff 1b is a continuation
of 1a which is the "lead guitar" (actually recorded as 2 seperate tracks), and riffs 1c and 1d
are the "rythm guitar" the chords under it. Riffs 1e through 1h (below) is the tab for the
album version and it works the same way.

BLACKENED - Metallica - 1988
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: McNuggets100
Email: mcnuggets100@optusnet.com.au

Tuning: Standard (eBGDAE)

This is a great song. I reckon Metallica's 5th best, after
Master of Puppets, One, Fade to Black & Enter Sandman.
The Main Riff is very fast picked and the open E is barely
audible. I have not marked the palm-mutes, but it is pretty
obvious where they are. The solo is super hard and you almost
need to as good as Kirk to play it ;) The main reason I tabbed
this song is because I checked almost EVERY tab of Blackened on
this AND other sites and the tabs were fairly inaccurate and
corner-cut. I know mine is THE BEST Blackened tab. Please rate.

Take her breath away
Millions of our years

Darkening in vain
Decadence remains
All is said and done
Never is the sun

Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead

Fire
Is the outcome of hypocrisy
Darkest potency
In the exit of humanity
Colour our world blackened

Blackened
