A fun song to play. Sounds surprisingly good on acoustic too. Who knew a Big Black cover 
of a Kraftwerk song can sound so good on acoustic? 

You play the first riff for the intro, outro, and while Steve is crooning
each lyric, and you play the second riff after each of his lyrics. 
Riff 1 is actually the bass riff transcribed for guitar, so 
if you want the  authentic Albini experience, you can use the 
feedbacker riff to get that high-pitched guitar during the verses. 
You can hit other strings by "accident" during the bridge 
if you want a harsher sound. The solo can be played on the 
higher frets if you want, but I think it sounds good where it is.
