Equipment    - Ibanez guitars,
               Marshall amplification,

Linchpin is a song that requires
skill in Fear Factory's trademark
techniques. Needed essentially is
a mastery in muting with BOTH hands,
especially for the main riff.
Chorus adds a shimmering effect to
the drone notes chorus and outro'
and works well with how melodic the
riffs are and fits with the cybernetic
sound of Fear Factory.
