Notes

Studio recording, 2008-2009 era. No direct confirmation of gear for this specific song, but early Chelsea Grin is widely associated with Schecter 8-strings and Peavey 6505+ amps for their debut EP. No evidence of live rig or alternate studio setup.

Difficulty

The riff is rhythmically straightforward but requires tight palm muting, fast picking, and precision to maintain clarity on an 8-string guitar.
