Live performance at Royal Albert Hall (2016); Lee Malia uses his signature Epiphone RD with custom pickups and runs into a Marshall JCM800 2203 as his main amp for heavy/distorted sections. Kemper Profiler is used for additional layering but main tone is from the Marshall. Pedals are rack-mounted and MIDI-controlled. Settings are for live, not studio.

Notes & Caveats
- No direct numeric amp EQ settings for this exact live performance found; settings estimated based on Lee Malia's own description of 'JCM800 is full [gain]. The master volume is just above four. We found a sweet spot.'
- Pedalboard details are from multiple live rig rundowns and interviews from the same era, but not all pedals are confirmed as active for this specific riff.
- No explicit pickup selector position stated, but bridge pickup is standard for heavy rhythm in BMTH live performances.
- No evidence of time-based or modulation effects (delay, chorus, flanger, etc.) in the riff section; only distortion/overdrive and noise gate confirmed.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. BMTH's 'Antivist' live at Royal Albert Hall features a modern, aggressive metal tone: very high gain, tight low end, slightly scooped but not hollow mids, bright but not harsh treble, and a clear presence boost for articulation. The reverb is minimal to keep the riff punchy and tight, with most ambience coming from the hall itself.
