Recording notes

From Blind Rage (2014). Blind Rage is the 14th studio album by German heavy metal band Accept. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Flying V through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Accept's other songs from Blind Rage, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
