Recording notes

From Na Krayu Vremeni (1999). Na Krayu Vremeni (At the Edge of Time) is the first full-length album by the Russian power metal band Epidemia, released in 1999. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Custom through a Marshall JCM800 2203, a classic heavy-metal pairing, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
