Notes

Studio recording, 2023 album 'The Jaws of Life'. Gear confirmed for Tony Perry in multiple rig rundowns and interviews for this era. No evidence of pedal-based distortion; amp is main source of gain. Pickup and amp model inferred from era and band member's confirmed studio/live gear.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, aggressive palm muting, fast alternate picking, and precise timing to match the song's syncopated rhythms, making it challenging for most intermediate players.
