Recording notes

From Razorblade Romance (2000). Razorblade Romance is the second studio album by Finnish rock band HIM, recorded with producer John Fryer. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for HIM's other songs from Razorblade Romance, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
