Story behind the song
Made to work with a tab I've done for the lead-break of the tune "What Needs Must Be." That tab is in the Lyrics section for this tune.

WHAT NEEDS MUST BE
(by Dead Meadow)
Tabbed by Dadfad (John M) 12/15/09
Key of F#m (Probably played with a capo on the second-fret.)
Lead-break only, from 2:27-3:01 Starting Right After the drum roll.
(3:01-3:23 is done in a very similar style, but with a wah-pedal)
Timing locations are approximate. Notes are given FROM THE CAPO on the 2nd-fret.
I use these tabbing symbols: / =slide up to; \ =slide down to; b =bend, or if
followed by a number in () bend to approximately that note; ~~ =add vibrato;
h =hammer on; po =pull-off. As an example -2b(3)ub2po0- means pick the 2 and
bend it to approximately the 3 then un-bend it back to the original 2-note then
pull-off to 0. Or 5/7~~ means slide up from the 5 to the 7 and then add vibrato.
