Notes

Studio recording for 'Life Is Killing Me' (2003); guitar confirmed by Equipboard and Guitar World interview; amp inferred from Guitar World interview referencing A/DA rack preamp; pickup models inferred from Equipboard and Guitar World; settings estimated due to lack of explicit studio numbers.

Difficulty

The riff requires intermediate skill due to its tight, palm-muted rhythm, mid-tempo metal feel, and the need to maintain clarity and articulation in a low-tuned, high-gain setting.
