About

Left Hand Path is the debut album from Entombed from 1990 that is known for defining the style of Swedish death metal by being the first recording to use the Tomas Skogsberg/Sunlight Studios "buzzsaw" guitar tone. The tone was created by heavily detuned electric guitars used with a maxed out Boss HM-2 Heavy Metal Pedal and a Boss DS-1 Distortion on a Peavey 40 watt Bandit amp. The originator of this guitar tone was Nihilist guitarist Leffe Cuzner. The album's liner notes give thanks to Nirvana, but the band in question is the Swedish death metal group Nirvana 2002, not.
