Notes

Studio recording, 1994 debut album, both Munky and Head tracked with Ibanez Universe 7-strings into Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifiers. Settings are from studio session notes and confirmed by multiple sources.

Difficulty

The solo and heavy sections require tight, percussive palm muting and precise rhythm, especially in low A tuning on a 7-string. While not technically shreddy, the tone and feel demand intermediate to advanced control.
