Notes

Studio recording, 1999. Forum posts and DVD evidence confirm Crate GT-200DH and Carvin DC127 for 'Molesting the Decapitated' era. No evidence of pedals or additional effects in the riff section. Settings are based on forum user emulating Devourment's tone with a Line 6 Pod Insane model, but original was Crate GT-200DH. No evidence of effects loop or studio outboard effects on guitar.

Tone Character(10)

thick and saturatedextremely high gaintight and percussivescooped midscrushing low endaggressive palm mutingraw and unpolishedno ambience or reverbbrutal, wall-of-sound distortionvery little note definition

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced right-hand technique for tight, fast palm muting and stamina to maintain the aggressive, percussive attack typical of brutal death metal. Complex rhythms and speed make it challenging for most players.
