From Sleeping Through the War (2017). Sleeping Through the War is the fourth studio album by American band All Them Witches. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Traditional through an Orange AD30, the nearest rig we use for All Them Witches' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
