From Sonic Excess in Its Purest Form (2001). Sonic Excess in Its Purest Form is the seventh studio album by American sludge metal band Crowbar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Peavey 5150, the rig we use for Crowbar's other songs from Sonic Excess in Its Purest Form, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in a tuning that is not one of the standard names: B E A D F♯ B, low to high.
