Notes

Studio recording, 2001. Sources indicate Marshall JMP was profiled for main tones, with minimal effects and focus on amp gain. Some sources mention Line 6 POD Pro was tried, but main album tones are Marshall JMP. No evidence of pedals for riff section; effects kept to a minimum. Pickup likely bridge for main riff. No evidence of amp reverb or other amp effects used for the riff.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate power chord changes and tight palm muting at a brisk tempo, but uses straightforward punk techniques without advanced lead work.
