Ash Gray

For Samsara I used a Jackson Demmel V 6 string equipped with Seymour Duncan JB and 59 pickups. Ran the guitars through various Blackstar amps such as HT Metal & Artisan. Pedals we tried a large amount, probably too many to remember, however Maxon OD808 and TC Sentry was used as a finishing touch to the HT Metal Distortion, Reverb used for my set up was a Digitech Polara, Chorus, MXR analog, and DL4 Line 6 Delay. I’m fairly sure the fuzz channel on Dukkha was through a classic Big Muff as well.

Writing this song was a way for us to express the groove elements Venom Prison is capable of whilst maintaining the foundations of what a Venom Prison song holds which is aggression. The balance isn’t always easy but very pleased with the outcome and I feel from this record has really started to shape the sound of Venom Prison
