From Soulfly (1998). Soulfly is the debut studio album by American heavy metal band Soulfly, released on April 21, 1998, through Roadrunner Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson SG Standard through a Peavey 5150, the rig we use for Soulfly's other songs from Soulfly, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
