Notes

Studio recording, 2017 (Dear Desolation album). No direct source confirms exact guitar/amp for 'Dead Sun' riff, but band is known for using Ibanez 7-strings with EMG 707s and Kemper Profiling Amps with 5150-style profiles in this era. No evidence of pedals or effects beyond high-gain amp and noise gate.

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced palm muting technique, tight rhythm accuracy, and control of a 7-string guitar in a fast, aggressive deathcore context.
