From Conquerors of Armageddon (2000). Conquerors of Armageddon is the third album by Brazilian death metal band Krisiun and their first under the Century Media label. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, a saturated death-metal pairing, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
