Recording notes

From Kill (2006). Kill is the tenth studio album by American death metal band Cannibal Corpse, released on 21 March 2006 by Metal Blade Records. The album's personnel list credits Pat O'Brien on lead guitar and Rob Barrett on rhythm guitar. 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 Kill, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup.
