From .limbo messiah (2007). .limbo messiah is the fifth studio album by the German punk rock band Beatsteaks, released on 2 April 2007 by Warner Music Group. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Beatsteaks' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
