From Utilitarian (2012). A blisteringly fast grindcore track with a harsh, saturated rhythm guitar. No source documents the guitar or amp on this track, so a Gibson SG Standard into a Marshall JCM800 2203 stands in. Set the gain high with a tight low end on the bridge pickup. Tuning isn't documented here.
