From Coup de Grace (2002). Coup De Grace is the fourth studio album by English stoner metal band Orange Goblin, released in 2002 on Rise Above Records and The Music Cartel. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson SG Standard through an Orange OR120 (Vintage), the nearest rig we use for Orange Goblin's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
