From No Sacrifice, No Victory (2009). No Sacrifice, No Victory is the seventh studio album by Swedish power metal band HammerFall, released 20 February 2009. The album's Wikipedia article says it is the first HammerFall album with every guitar in every song tuned to D rather than E♭, which matches the transcription. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Flying V through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for HammerFall's other songs from No Sacrifice, No Victory, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in D standard (D G C F A D), a whole step below standard.
