"sound"?

Well, if you are talking about sound versus actual notes, he's using some overdrive and he is digging in really really hard.

Try plucking really hard near the neck, that's how you get that aggressive sound that sounds as if you're popping the strings.

Yeah, he kinda bends without melodic intent. Wanking if you will. But his popping sound is because his action is set really low, and he's really playing hard. That's the sound of the strings bouncing off the metal more or less.
