Notes
Studio recording, 2021 (album released 2021, session likely 2020-2021). Both Kadavar and Elder guitarists are documented using Gibson SGs and Orange OR120 heads for riff sections in studio and live, with fuzz pedals for saturated rhythm. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for this specific song/section.

The riff requires tight, heavy rhythm playing with fuzz, maintaining clarity and articulation through syncopated patterns and dynamic pick attack. Not technically advanced, but demands control and precision.
