Notes

Studio recording for 'The Funeral Of Hearts' (2003, Love Metal album). Mikko 'Linde' Lindström used a Gibson SG Standard for the left rhythm track and a Fender Telecaster for the right, each through different amp setups. Peavey 5150 is cited as the main rhythm/lead amp for this era. Black Arts Toneworks Pharaoh fuzz and Octafuzz Multiplexer were used for additional saturation. No evidence of live-specific settings or gear for this riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight palm muting and precise rhythm playing to maintain clarity and heaviness, but does not involve advanced lead techniques or complex chord voicings.
