Notes
Live performance at Wacken 2019. Both Jeff Ling and Luke Kilpatrick used Kemper Profilers loaded with Peavey 6505 profiles and GGD All The Gains plugin for heavy rhythm tones. No evidence of guitar changes or additional pedals for the riff section. Year: 2019, live context.

Difficulty
The riff requires tight, fast palm-muted picking and precise rhythm, typical of modern metalcore. While not extremely technical, the speed and accuracy needed for the chugging patterns and synchronization with drums elevate the difficulty above intermediate.
