Dune Stab

[Intro riff]

[Single guitar, no drums.] [Plays a descending four-note pattern.] [Each note bends sharp, then falls flat.] [Sounds like a warning siren losing power.]

[Verse riff]

[Drums enter: kick and snare only.] [No cymbals. No toms. Bass plays the same three notes for the entire section (C–F#–C).] [Guitar plays the intro riff but double speed, then triple speed, then back to normal.]

[Bridge riff]

[Everything drops except guitar and bass.] [The guitar plays a single note—repeated, stabbing, 16th notes.] [The note changes every 4 bars: C → F# → C → (dissonant screech). Drums re-enter with snare hits on the off-beat.]

[Guitar solo]

[No melody. Just a knife fight.] [The guitarist plays as fast as possible, mostly on the two highest strings.] [Notes collide. The reverb tank rattles. The solo ends with a slide from the 22nd fret to nowhere.]

[Outro riff]

[The intro riff returns, but slower. Broken.] [The bass drops out. The drums drop out.] [Just guitar, playing that descending four-note pattern, each note more out of tune than the last. Then: a single, out-of-tune chord. Then: the sound of a body falling into sand.]
