Notes

Studio recording, 2003 (Figure Number Five album). No direct evidence for exact guitar/amp in this song, but Soilwork's guitarists in this era (Peter Wichers, Ola Frenning) were known to use Ibanez 7-strings and Peavey 5150s for rhythm tracks. No evidence of live rig or alternate gear for this specific recording.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate alternate picking and tight palm muting in a low tuning, demanding strong right-hand technique and left-hand muting to maintain clarity at high gain.
