Fellow shredder Jason Richardson gives the "golf-pro" approach to assessing Brendon Small's playing technique that revealed a small-but-impactful change improving his onstage efficiency and performance.

This spring, the revered death metal band Dethklok—the very definition of TV turned reality, after the band jumped from the show Metalocalypse onto real stages nearly two decades ago—has been on tour with Swedish melodic death-metal giants Amon Amarth. Last month, they blew the roof off of Fenway’s MGM Music Hall, and PG’s Chris Kies joined Dethklok leader Brendon Small, bassist Pete Griffin, and guitarist Nili Brosh’s tech Robb Philpotts before the gig for this new Rig Rundown. We’ve gathered a few highlights below; watch the video for the complete picture.
