Guitars were ESP vipers with EMG 81s in the bridge. Not sure about neck, but they never used it. Distortion was Ibanez Tubescreamer. Gain and tone set to middle, volume on full.
The amp was a Peavey 5150, green channel, crunch and bright switches in. Pregain around 4, low on 7, mid on 1, high on 4. I don't remember the presence or resonance settings, but this will get you very close. Master volume should not go over 4.
One ov my favorite metal sounds, so over-saturated and not in the least bit floppy.
EDIT : by the way, those 5150 settings are non-o-clock right ?
Of course not....volume on 4:00 and bass all the way off (7:00)? I think not
Thanks a lot !!!
How did you get that info ? Were you part of the studio sessions ?

just listening to this for the first time (had to order it from the UK)...
NICE!
really digging the drums...loads of overhead and room mics on there...natural kick, snare, toms...lovely. I love how open and real the drums sound, must have been recorded in a good sounding room
