Ok guys, I was ast the Tool concert in Peoria, with binoculars, and finnally
figured out the main riff. Its not a 3p2p0 pulloff.
What you have to do is kind of drag your finger down the top two strings to
get the triplet sound. It's kinda tricky at first,
but I swear to god that this is correct.
Effects: Apparently, according to a bunch of interviews, he used the foxx
tone machine for this song.
In addition to that he uses delay, Wah, and a talkbox.

* on the album this note is on the solo track, which is a different
track than the previous heavy riff. the heavy riff just plays another
open low D then the open higher d tracks over top of it at the same
time when the solo track comes in. since it's more prominent, and he
does it live, I tabbed it here.

solo
effect: talkbox, and delay. (wah and delay can substitute fine.)
Note: I believe that this whole solo is dual tracked as well as parts
towards the end of the song.
I can here very subtle differences throughout. When there is a prominent
dual track part I will tab it above the main part.

lower volume, he uses a volume pedal.
slight variations in the strumming amount after about 5x's,
but the main rythm is still the same so I won't bother to tab them out.
