Before we measured, sources said: D Standard, with no pitch given (community).
Eight songs released as the last part of the Throes of Joy era: new originals, a Slab! cover (People Pie) and a Bad Brains cover (Don't Need It). No tabs yet; it is listed in the D Standard of the Throes material, and TuneLit's semitone check agrees with D on 4 songs and doubts none. The CD sits at concert pitch (about +4 ¢).
