Recording notes

From Krushers of the World (2026). Krushers of the World is a 2026 studio album by Kreator. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Diezel VH4, the rig we use for Kreator's other songs from Krushers of the World, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
