Notes

Studio recording, 2022-2023. Keyan used the Ibanez M80M for the ultra-low tuning and the Neural DSP Quad Cortex for amp and effects modeling. No evidence of a physical amp or pedalboard for the studio recording of 'Arrhythmia' riff section. Live, he uses a Jackson 7-string and Marshall/Fender amps, but these are not confirmed for the studio version.

Difficulty

The riff is technically demanding due to the low tuning, rapid palm muting, and syncopated rhythms, requiring advanced right-hand technique and tight timing.
