From In the Minds of Evil (2013). In the Minds of Evil is the eleventh studio album by American 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 rig we use for Deicide's other songs from In the Minds of Evil, 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.
Common Questions About the "Thou Begone" Tone
What guitar did Deicide use on "Thou Begone"?
The guitar on "Thou Begone" (released 2013) isn't documented; the Dean ML above gets the sound. Pickup selector: bridge pickup on the guitar. The track is in E♭ Standard (E♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭), so retune before you dial anything in.
What amp settings does "Thou Begone" need?
Settings for this sound: Gain 8, Bass 6, Mid 4, Treble 6, Presence 6, Volume 8. Each value is on the standard 0–10 amp scale; match them on your amp first, then nudge to taste. ToneMirror can translate these positions for whatever amp you actually own.
Can I play "Thou Begone" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Thou Begone" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else. The translation accounts for EQ curve, gain structure, and pickup type so the result actually sounds like the record, not just the same knob numbers on different gear.
