Notes

Studio recording, 2003-2004 demo era. Gear inferred from band interviews and era-typical setup for Bullet for My Valentine. No direct source confirms exact gear for this demo, but Michael Paget is known for using ESP LTD EC-1000 with EMG pickups and Peavey 5150 for heavy rhythm tones in this period.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, consistent palm muting and precise alternate picking at a moderate tempo, with syncopated rhythms typical of early 2000s metalcore. Not beginner, but accessible to intermediate players with metal rhythm experience.
