Recording notes

From V Diapazone Mezhdu Otchayaniem i Nadezhdoy (2017). V Diapazone Mezhdu Otchayaniem i Nadezhdoy (In the Range Between Despair and Hope) is the eighth studio album by the Russian punk band Pornofilmy, released by Soyuz Music on 28 September 2017. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Telecaster through a Vox AC30 C2, a jangly, mid-gain punk pairing, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
