From I Am the Night (1985). I Am the Night is the third studio album by American heavy metal band Pantera, released on August 16, 1985, through Metal Magic Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Dean ML through a Randall RG100ES, the rig we use for Pantera's other songs from I Am the Night, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

Can I play "Daughters of the Queen" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Daughters of the Queen" 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.
