I can definitely see where you're coming from with the Pezz vibes, but I think this tab is still a solid addition to any Billy Talent fan's collection.

Hey, this is from the album Watoosh and it's Pezz!

I've heard a lot of misinformation about this song, but the truth is that it was actually on Billy Talent Try Honesty EP and not on any other album or EP by Pezz. The EP had four songs: Try Honesty, This Is How It Goes, Cut The Curtains, and Beach Balls. However, Beach Balls didn't make the cut for their self-titled LP because it sounded too much like Pezz and wasn't in Drop D tuning like the rest of the album.
