OF ALL THRASH METAL BENDS EXODUS WAS HAVING THE MOST EXTREME AND SHARP SOUND OF GUITARS ESPECIALLY ON ALBUM IMPACT IS IMMINENT THE FIRST SONG AND ALSO ALL OF THE REST TOO..... I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT KIND OF EFFECTS OR DISTORSIONS THEY WAS USING, I THINK THEY WAS RECORDING ON KITTY HAWKS AMPS...
during that time Gary used his modded Marshall JCM 800 (can be seen at the right side of teh stage), afaik the Marshall was used on Tempo also. Nowasays Gary uses teh ENgl Savage 120, and some Randalls, Marshalls in teh studio. However, one of my personal guitar heros said some time ago: "If you want your amp to sound better, you gotta play better". Gary and Lee could play through a 10 watts solid state combo and it`d still sound killer.
I REALLY HATE THE EQUALIZATION OF THE THRASH METAL GUITARISTS NOWADAYS WHO PLAYED IN ALL THESE CLASSIC BANDS - IN THE PAST IT WAS FULL DRIVE, BASS AND TREBLE, NOW IT SOUNDS TOO MELLOW AND MEDIUM
i have a guitar world article with the h-team in it and they said that this is the only song on the album which was tuned down to C. that album, impact is imminent has an awesome scooped sound production. perfect for thrash!
@jonasbjarke IN THE STUDIO ALBUM THE GUITARS OF THIS SONG WERE TUNED IN D AND THE PRODUCTION IS TOP NOTCH, REALLY LOVE THE AGGRESSIVE SOUND OF THE GUITARS IN THIS ALBUM
EXODUS
