Notes
Studio recording, 2011 (Under Soil and Dirt album). Guitar and amp inferred from Equipboard listings for Kevin Geyer and William Levy, but not explicitly confirmed for 'Roam' riff section. No direct evidence of pedals or effects used in the studio for this track.

The riff requires fast, consistent alternate picking and tight palm muting at a brisk tempo, but uses straightforward power chord shapes and rhythm patterns typical of modern punk.
