Recording notes

From See What's on the Inside (2021). See What's on the Inside is the seventh studio album by English rock band Asking Alexandria. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through a Peavey 6505+, the rig we use for Asking Alexandria's other songs from See What's on the Inside, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
