From Pure Holocaust (1993). Pure Holocaust is the second album by Norwegian black metal band Immortal. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Horizon NT-II through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the nearest rig we use for Immortal's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
