From Below the Lights (2003). Below the Lights is the seventh studio album by Norwegian extreme metal band Enslaved. 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 rig we use for Enslaved's other songs from Below the Lights, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
