From Vile (1996). Vile is the fifth studio album by American death metal band Cannibal Corpse, released on May 21, 1996, through Metal Blade Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a B.C. Rich Ironbird through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the rig we use for Cannibal Corpse's other songs from Vile, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in C♯ standard (C♯ F♯ B E G♯ C♯), three half steps below standard.
