Notes
Studio recording for 'Left to Rot' (2020, Spectre of Devastation). Guitarist Fredrik Wester confirmed this setup for the album era. No evidence of pedals or additional effects for the riff section; direct amp tone likely. Tuned to Eb standard.

The riff requires advanced picking speed, tight palm muting, and precise rhythm, typical of modern thrash metal. The technical demands and tempo place it at a hard difficulty level.
