Notes

Studio recording, 2004, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge album. Gear inferred from band interviews and era; no direct studio documentation for this song's riff, but all evidence points to Les Paul Standard into Marshall DSL100 for the main heavy rhythm. No evidence of pedals for the riff section; distortion from amp.

Difficulty

The riff requires fast, tight alternate picking and palm muting at a high tempo, with precise power chord changes and consistent aggression, making it moderately challenging for intermediate players.
