From Silence in the Snow (2015). Silence in the Snow is the seventh studio album by American heavy metal band Trivium. The album version runs 4:09. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1007 Baritone Evertune through EVH 5150III 100W, the nearest rig to the one documented for Trivium, stands in. Set the amp to a driven crunch and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it in a custom tuning (D♭ A♭ D♭ G♭ B♭ E♭, low to high).
