From ...Burn, Piano Island, Burn (2003). ...Burn, Piano Island, Burn is the third full-length studio album by the American post-hardcore band The Blood Brothers, released in March 2003. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Professional II Jazzmaster through an Orange AD30, the rig we use for The Blood Brothers' other songs from..Burn, Piano Island, Burn, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in drop D.
