Notes

Studio recording, 2023 (Take Me Back to Eden). Guitar World and community sources suggest Neural DSP Archetype: Gojira plugin was used for the album, with Bogner Überschall-style amp models for rhythm. No official confirmation of exact guitar or pickups for this specific track, but 8-string Jacksons and heavy gauge strings are strongly indicated for riff sections.

Difficulty

The riff requires advanced palm muting, tight rhythm precision, and control over an extended range 8-string guitar, making it challenging for most players.
