From Hidden History of the Human Race (2019). Hidden History of the Human Race is the second studio album by American death metal band Blood Incantation. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a B.C. Rich Ironbird through a Peavey 5150, the rig we use for Blood Incantation's other songs from Hidden History of the Human Race, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop C (C G C F A D).
