Mysterons by Portishead
This is the first song from the album "Dummy".
Effects: Lots of echo, some distortion for the chorus (to give it
a metallic sound). For the solo "mysterons sound" bit, just add a lot
of vibrato to all the notes so it goes ooowwwwoooowwooo...alright?

[Bbm]Look 'round you've been [Bm]swept aside,
