quickly bend the string at almost every note here^^ at solo part2,
so the whole riff has a vibrating sound
at the end of the solo, right before chorus

at this part Daron didnt strum, his right hand was at the back of his head, he was doing
this weird dance(?), and he just pressed the strings down with his fretting hand
