Recording notes

From With Ears to See and Eyes to Hear (2010). With Ears to See and Eyes to Hear is the debut studio album by American rock band Sleeping with Sirens, released on 23 March 2010 by Rise Records. The album's personnel list credits Brandon McMaster on lead guitar and Nick Trombino on rhythm guitar. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP E-II Eclipse through a Peavey 6505+, the rig we use for Sleeping with Sirens' other songs from With Ears to See and Eyes to Hear, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
