Notes

Studio recording, 2004-2005. Guitarist Peter Wichers used a baritone 7-string ESP LTD SC-607B with EMG 81-7 active pickups for the main rhythm/riff sections. The Peavey 5150 II was the primary amp for Soilwork's rhythm tones during this era. No direct evidence of pedal use for the riff section; high-gain amp tone with minimal effects. Settings estimated based on genre, era, and typical Soilwork studio rig.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, precise alternate picking and palm muting on a 7-string baritone guitar, demanding tight synchronization and stamina typical of modern metal rhythm playing.
