Notes

Studio recording, 2021 (album release year). Fortin Nameless Suite amp sim confirmed for guitars on this track. No direct evidence for guitar model or pickups, but genre and tuning (Drop A) strongly suggest high-output humbuckers. No evidence of live rig or alternate amps for this recording.
