Studio recording, album: 'Jar' (2013). Gear confirmed for album sessions by Taylor Madison in multiple interviews and Equipboard entries. Avatar 4x12 cab with Celestion Vintage 30 speakers likely used. Focus is on the main distorted riff section.

Difficulty

The riff is rhythmically straightforward but requires control over dynamics and muting to maintain clarity with high-gain fuzz, as well as familiarity with alternate tunings.
