From Weightless (2011). Weightless is the second studio album by American instrumental progressive metal band Animals as Leaders, released on 4 November 2011 by Prosthetic Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an Ibanez Tosin Abasi TAM100 (Animals as Leaders) through a Fractal Audio Axe-FX II, the nearest rig we use for Animals as Leaders' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
