heavily saturated low endgrowly midrangeaggressive pick attackclanky upper midsfuzzy overdrive texturetight, compressed punchslightly scooped but presentpercussive and cuttingsustained, grinding distortion
Difficulty
The part is rhythmically straightforward but demands a strong, consistent pick attack and control of note definition under heavy overdrive. The main challenge is maintaining articulation and groove in a dense, saturated mix.
