Notes

Studio recording, 2010 album 'White Crosses'. Gear inferred from artist's known studio rig for this album/era. No explicit source confirms exact pedal/amp model for this song, but Premier Guitar and live rig rundowns from the era show Les Paul Standard into Marshall JCM800 for main rhythm/riff tones.

Difficulty

The riff requires solid punk rhythm technique, fast chord changes, and tight palm muting, but does not involve advanced lead or complex fingerwork.
