Notes

Studio recording for 'SLEEPS SOCIETY' (2021); main riff tones tracked by Sean Long using Peavey 6505+ as primary amp, with Marshall JCM800/JVM205 and Mesa Dual Rectifier also auditioned for some sections but 6505+ is primary for heavy riffing. Only one cab was used, carefully mic'd. No Tube Screamer or boost for most riff sections; high-output pickups and amp gain provide saturation.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, accurate picking and tight palm muting with precise rhythm, typical of modern metalcore. High-gain settings demand excellent noise control and muting technique.
