Album: The 4th Crusade 

Remember when playing Bolt Thrower, the key is power. All the songs on this 
album were recorded with 2 distorted basses and 8 guitars layered on top of 
one another, creating an unending wall of distortion. Only bottom four strings  
are tabbed for simplicities sake. 

Guitars are tuned all strings one and a half step down, making 
your low string C# or Db. 

Tuning (low to high): C# F# B E G# C#
