Notes
Studio recording, 2004 (The End of Heartache album). Adam Dutkiewicz and Joel Stroetzel both tracked rhythm parts, but Adam is primary for riff sections. No direct evidence of pedal use for rhythm/riff section; high-gain amp tone is primary.

The riff requires advanced picking speed, tight palm muting, and precise rhythm execution at a fast tempo, making it challenging for most intermediate players.
