Comments: This is one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite albums, and anyone who
doesn't like Malevolent Creation should be shot so their genes can't be carried on to the
next generation. I think the tab looks great, there are bound to be a few minor mistakes
though, and if you notice any, I'd appreciate it if you would show me so I can fix it. By
the way, I'd also like to know if those little "TIME" things help you. It gives me more
work to do to put them in there, so if nobody's using them, I'm just going to take them
out. E-mail me to let me know if you like them or not. Later.
