Notes

No direct source confirms the exact guitar, pickups, or amp used on the studio recording. Thy Light is a Brazilian atmospheric/depressive black metal band, and the tone is consistent with high-gain, scooped-mid black metal tones typical of the 2000s/2010s. No evidence of live vs. studio gear differences. Recording year: 2007-2013 (album released 2013).
