Notes
Studio recording, 2010-2011. Gear based on era-appropriate interviews, live photos, and genre conventions for shoegaze/noise rock. No direct rig rundown for 'Rubber' found; Jazzmaster + Twin Reverb is the documented core of Yuck's sound on debut album.

Difficulty
The riff is not technically complex but requires skill in handling high-gain fuzz, feedback, and maintaining note definition in a dense, noisy mix.
