From Purification Through Violence (1996). Purification through Violence is the debut studio album by American death metal band Dying Fetus, following Infatuation with Malevolence, a collection of early demos. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the nearest rig we use for Dying Fetus' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup.
