Notes
Studio recording for 'Demiurge' (2011, Koloss). Main rhythm tone tracked with Ibanez FTM33 8-string and Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier. Horizon Devices Precision Drive or similar boost pedal likely used in front. No evidence of additional effects or amp reverb on the riff section.

The riff requires advanced rhythmic precision, tight palm muting, and control over low-tuned 8-string guitar, making it very challenging for most players.
