From Manic (2021). Manic is the fourth studio album by American metalcore band Wage War. The album was released on October 1, 2021, through Fearless Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Jim Root Stratocaster through a Kemper Profiler Head, the rig we use for Wage War's other songs from Manic, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
