i listened to all high on fire's albums, all of them several times over except for the earliest one (because of all the live songs).

this is what i came up with after doing that:

+ on the album "surrounded by thieves" the song "razor hoof" that ends the album (with some gain going on) goes straight into the same drum "riff" opening up for "blessed black wing"'s "devilution"
+ they rarely use a guitar to do chords behind a solo, the bass usually does that alone - but the solo often is comprised of 2 guitars (á la sabbath)
+ the songs that have the album names are chosen for the album name for a reason
+ they have the best war-drums i've ever heard
+ i don't think that's a tremolo in "bastard samurai" - i think he's using his LP and switching the pickups while only sliding on the guitar
+ he slides a lot - preference is in playing on the E-string (which is of course almost always in standard C or drop Bb) - see "snakes for the divine" with chords going from the high E (12th fret) to low F (1st fret), blessed black wings as well.
+ "snakes for the divine" has a bit more shine in the mastering which works better for some songs - in my opinion "surrounded by thieves" is slightly too blanketed - blessed black wings/death is this communion nails it
+ you can just about play any of these songs without changing guitar/retuning with a fuzz, phaser and a simple delay and cover all the guitar parts unless doing the ambience





oh and i voted too

and the fact that i've never seen him use a tremolo live. haven't seen bastard samurai live. thanks for verifying harry
