Studio recording, 2020. Evidence from Equipboard and livestreams shows Noah Sebastian using Guitar Rig 5 for guitar tones in this era. No evidence of physical amp or pedalboard for this song's studio recording. Guitar model inferred from band member usage and genre conventions.

Difficulty
The riff requires tight, aggressive palm muting and precise rhythm in a downtuned, high-gain context. While not technically virtuosic, the clarity and control needed for modern metal rhythm playing make it moderately challenging.
