Recording notes

From Tales Don't Tell Themselves (2007). Tales Don't Tell Themselves is the third album by Welsh post-hardcore band Funeral for a Friend, released on 14 May 2007 by Atlantic Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Marshall JCM900 4100 Dual Reverb, the nearest rig we use for Funeral for a Friend's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
