From The Arockalypse (2006). The Arockalypse is the third studio album by the Finnish rock band Lordi. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Schecter Hellraiser C-1 through a Marshall JCM900 4100 Dual Reverb, the rig we use for Lordi's other songs from The Arockalypse, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.

Can I play "The Night Of The Loving Dead" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "The Night Of The Loving Dead" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else. The translation accounts for EQ curve, gain structure, and pickup type so the result actually sounds like the record, not just the same knob numbers on different gear.
