From Transilvanian Hunger (1994). Transilvanian Hunger is the fourth studio album by Norwegian black metal band Darkthrone. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Darkthrone's other songs from Transilvanian Hunger, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
