It just is powerful and gritty, so if you heard it live, you know that distortion is heavily used. Like most of the songs on Altered Beast, this song uses rhythm guitar and Richard Llyod backing up with the squeals and lead alongside. If I ever get the lead part singled out, I'll add on. But the song's fairly simple... Standard Tuning Verse Riff (played four times before first verse) --palm mute this riff the whole way through B N.C.
