Recording notes

From In Torment in Hell (2001). In Torment in Hell is the sixth studio album by Florida death metal band Deicide. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Dean ML through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the nearest rig we use for Deicide's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in D standard (D G C F A D), a whole step below standard.
