I did a band with the same line up sans the melody singer. You can hear some cuts here:

Scroll down to the cd sale area and click on the underlined titles.

Vocals - Rode NTK to Fatso in 1176 mode with transformer in path.

Guitars - each one recorded alone through two amps (Dual Rec for distortion and Marshall TSL for tone and slight crunchy edge) to separate 4x12 cabs, each cab with a 57 and condensor. Preamp is 1272 type (Seventh Circle Audio) for 57's and Twin Servo Jensen type for Condensors. 57's go from preamp to Fatso just for tape emulation and Transformer. Guitars also D.I.'d at same time so each guitar has 5 tracks to blend at mix time. I got this tip on hardcore guitar recording from Eric Rachel, producer/engineer/mixer of Every Time I Die.

Bass - tube DI to 1272 type preamp to Fatso in 1176 mode with Transformer in.

Drums - this would require an entire thread, trust me.
