Notes

Studio recording for 'Stranded' (2016, Magma album). Joe Duplantier used his signature Charvel with DiMarzio PAF bridge pickup into an EVH 5150 III amp. Minimal pedals; DigiTech Whammy was a new addition for this album but not used in the main riff. Rhythm tone is primarily amp distortion. Studio context, not live.

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced right-hand technique for tight palm muting and dynamic pick attack, as well as precise timing and articulation to match the aggressive, percussive style of modern metal.
