Recording notes

From Wires...and the Concept of Breathing (2008). Wires and the Concept of Breathing is the debut studio album by American post-hardcore band A Skylit Drive. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Schecter Hellraiser C-1 through a Peavey 6505+, the rig we use for A Skylit Drive's other songs from Wires...and the Concept of Breathing, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
