IK it's the same note-wise, but i feel it's a little easier for some to play the 7th fret on low E as 2nd fret on A string...

It's fun playing this song with my band, I use heavy metal distortion on it with a decent drum machine and it rocks, not sure if any metal band ever re did it , if not they should try it, hypnotic rhythm

cool thanks
