Difficulty
The riff requires tight, consistent palm muting and aggressive downpicking at a medium tempo, demanding stamina and precision for the percussive, heavy sound. While not technically advanced in terms of note choice, the physical endurance and rhythmic accuracy required make it moderately challenging.
