Used on "Linger", as mentioned by producer Stephen Street in this March 2018 Sound on Sound interview.

Guitar-wise, Noel Hogan used Telecasters all the way — either his own or Street's 1967 Tele — in combination with Vox AC30 and Fender Twin Reverb amps. "We used the Vox tremolo most of the time," he says. "I had a DOD Chorus pedal that I still use to this day. It was the very first pedal I bought and it's still in my rig because it has a setting on it that is very much the Cranberries' sound."

“I find it makes a bigger and fuller sound to always have two amps on,” he says. “The Mesa/Boogie Mark II is great for a big, but not dirty sound, and I use my Vox AC30 for a crunchy sound that just kind of rumbles underneath. Finally, my Marshall 30th Anniversary combo is there for that ballsy effect.”
