Notes

Studio recording, 2021. Mike Stringer is known for using Strandberg Boden 7 with Fishman Fluence Modern pickups and Neural DSP plugins for Spiritbox's 'Eternal Blue' album. No direct source confirms the exact amp plugin for 'Sun Killer', but Neural DSP Archetype: Gojira is widely cited for Spiritbox's heavy tones in this era.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, fast palm muting and precise rhythm, especially in low tunings on a 7-string. While not technically 'expert', it demands strong right-hand technique and rhythmic accuracy.
