Thanks a lot to Yani and Ray for giving me the opportunity to do this.

My name is Dimitrije Kostic and any questions about this tab or any 
others in the Fear Factory Tablature Archive can be emailed to me at
                [email protected]
I will gladly investigate any possible errors in any tablature on this site.

This seems to be Fear Factory's most popular song.  Fortunately for any 
novice bassists out there, it's also (in my humble opinion) among the 
easier of Fear Factory's sometimes arduous songs.  Most of what is 
really necessary for the song is for the bass to hold steady behind the 
guitar during the staccato riffing (Riffs A, B, and D, for example) and 
to provide backing during the choruses (Riff E).  I have also tried to 
include open strings to create more resonance, however if you feel this 
is inappropriate, you may replace them, e.g...

|---instead-of--0--|
|-5----------------|

if you want the bass to have a more staccato effect as well.  Have fun!

Note:  Major thanks are in order to Rich Broadhead 
                [email protected]
for pointing out the painfully obvious screw-ups in the previous, really
***ed version of this tab.

Tune all strings down a perfect fourth (B, E, A, D)
