Notes

Studio recording, album released 2008. Both guitarists used Orange amps for this era. No evidence of pedals in the riff section; chorus pedal only used for solos. Settings estimated based on typical Orange amp usage in punk rock and forum advice to use mid-heavy, moderate gain settings. Pickup and guitar model confirmed for this era from Premier Guitar rig rundown.

Difficulty

The riff is fast and requires tight, consistent downstroke picking and palm muting, but uses straightforward power chords and rhythm typical of punk rock.
