From Vobiscum Satanas (1998). Vobiscum Satanas (Latin for "May Satan Be with You") is the second studio album by Swedish black metal band Dark Funeral. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD Arrow-1000 through an EVH 5150III 100W, the nearest rig we use for Dark Funeral's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in E♭ standard (E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭), a half step below standard.
