Notes
Studio recording, 2022 (from the 'Midas' album sessions). Gear confirmed via Equipboard and pedalboard photos. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the riff section. Focused on the distorted/heavy riff tone.

The riff requires moderately advanced rhythm skills, tight timing, and dynamic pick attack to achieve the punchy, articulate sound, but does not involve complex lead or advanced techniques.
