Recording notes

From His Last Walk (2006). His Last Walk is the debut studio album by the American metalcore band Blessthefall. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through a Peavey 5150 II, the rig we use for Blessthefall's other songs from His Last Walk, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.
