Adolescence (2013)
(McAloon)

From: "Crimson/Red" [2013]

The chords on the recording are played using a sound called �Fat Fifth�,
which adds the fifth to every note played, thus creating densely layered
chords which are difficult to reproduce on a guitar. I think what I�ve got
here is pretty close, but it is just a suggestion, of course.
