From Violent Revolution (2001). Violent Revolution is the tenth studio album by German thrash metal band Kreator, released on 25 September 2001 by Steamhammer. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Kreator's other songs from Violent Revolution, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
