Notes

Studio recording, 2012 ('Colourmeinkindness' album). No direct source confirms exact gear for 'Whole' riff, but multiple interviews and live photos from this era show Alex Henery using a Jazzmaster into an Orange AD30 with minimal pedals. No evidence of additional amp models or alternate guitars for the riff section.

Difficulty

The riff requires solid palm muting and dynamic picking for punch, but uses straightforward power chords and rhythm, making it accessible to intermediate players.
