From Berserker (2017). Berserker is the debut studio album by Finnish heavy metal band Beast in Black, released on 3 November 2017. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Jackson Phil Demmel Demmelition King V through an Engl Powerball II, the rig we use for Beast in Black's other songs from Berserker, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.

The guitar on "The Fifth Angel" (released 2017) isn't documented; the Jackson Phil Demmel Demmelition King V above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar.

Settings for this sound: Gain 7, Bass 5, Mid 5, Treble 7, Presence 7, Volume 6. Each value is on the standard 0–10 amp scale; match them on your amp first, then nudge to taste. ToneMirror can translate these positions for whatever amp you actually own.
Can I play "The Fifth Angel" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "The Fifth Angel" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else. The translation accounts for EQ curve, gain structure, and pickup type so the result actually sounds like the record, not just the same knob numbers on different gear.
