From Infamous (2012). Infamous is the second studio album by American metalcore band Motionless in White, released on 13 November 2012 by Fearless. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Peavey 6505+, the rig we use for Motionless in White's other songs from Infamous, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
