Proprioception

The opening guitar riff was one of the most difficult on the album to play cleanly. It involves pull offs, muting, hammer ons, string bending, string sliding, and string skipping. All this occurs within a simple 4/4 beat.
Luke's voice has a severe delayed flang effect on the "Break your fall with daggers" section. The shouting vocals are done by Aaron. The guitar in that section is not double tracked. It is a single pass mixed really loud.
(Nearly all Tourniquet rhythm guitars are played twice and mixed near left and right - making it very important to play them precisely!)
