Throughout the song, dialogue of a marine can be heard being shouted at by his commander, encouraging him to become a "Psycho Killer". The riff is based on a very heavy bass distortion, which sounds remarkably intentionally broken, a reasonably heavy guitar, and contains the "0305030" riff, played live in gigs since 1999. The song also contains orchestration in the last part of the song and distorted vocals in the chorus.
