From Something to Consume (2025). No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson SG Standard through an Orange Rockerverb 50 MkIII, the rig we use for Die Spitz's other songs from Something to Consume, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in C standard (C F B♭ E♭ G C), two whole steps below standard.
