Notes

Studio recording, 2017 album 'Anticult'. Gear confirmed for this era and song by Equipboard and forum eyewitness accounts. No evidence of pedal use for time-based or modulation effects in riff section; tone is extremely tight and dry. No evidence of amp reverb or delay used. Settings estimated based on genre, amp, and era.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate alternate picking and tight palm muting at a high tempo, with complex rhythm changes and precision needed for clarity in a high-gain, low-tuned context.
