Notes
Studio recording, 1999-2000 White Pony sessions. Gear confirmed for album era but not for this specific song by direct source; no evidence of pedal use for riff section, only amp distortion. No chorus, delay, or reverb audible on riff. No evidence of effects loop or additional rack effects for riff.

The riff requires precise palm muting, tight rhythm, and comfort with baritone scale stretches, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or extreme speed.
