Notes
Studio recording, 2015. Lee Malia used his signature Epiphone RD Custom with high output pickups into a Marshall JCM800 2203. Klon Centaur (or clone) used as main overdrive for riff tone. Quad-tracked guitars for thickness. Settings and pedal use confirmed for studio, not live.

tight and percussiveaggressive palm mutingsaturated high-gainarticulate note separationmodern metalcore clarityfocused midrange punchcrisp pick attackminimal ambiencequad-tracked thicknesspercussive low end
Difficulty
The riff requires tight, consistent palm muting and aggressive picking to maintain clarity and punch, especially when quad-tracking. While not technically virtuosic, the precision and stamina needed for the modern metalcore rhythm elevate the difficulty above beginner level.
