Notes

Studio recording for 'Covenant' album (1993). Trey Azagthoth used an Ibanez Universe 7-string with DiMarzio Blaze II pickups into a Marshall JCM800, boosted with a ProCo RAT distortion pedal. Rhythm section (riff) tone, not solo. No evidence of time-based or modulation effects on the riff. No evidence of effects loop use for the riff.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate alternate picking and tight palm muting at high speed, with complex rhythm changes and precise timing, making it challenging for most players.
