Alex Webster Cannibal Corpse 5 string

[DLI848]

I learned the song hammer smashed face on four string, but I think I see alex webster use the B string on the song live. Does he?

I think so, on the Live Cannibalism video they play all songs in the same tuning, everything down, the guitarists used 7 strings at that time.
I think they tune to A# or B.

They used to play in D# standard, so all the songs on Tomb of the Mutilated (including the Hammer smashed face) are in D# standard.

CC- switched their tuning to A# standard little over ten years ago. Therefore they also play all their old songs also in A#. Basically they play every song in the same position (at the same frets), everything is just moved to "the thicker strings". That is why on Live Cannibalism for example you see Webster playing with the B-string.
