I first saw dead letter circus at the butterfly effect concert this year. I was amazed by the bass player Stewart Hill, he had so many great riff techniques like using many chordal pattern strums and volume swelling to effect an amazing effect. He also does some amazing slap work in one of their songs - Lines. I picked up their album yesterday and havent stopped listening to it. He uses a Warwick Thumb 5 string bolt-on and a swr sm-900 live. Definetley check these guys out go to their myspace www.myspace.com/deadlettercirucs. You will be amazed.

I like em too. Good bass player no doubt.

Sweet- Playing in Ballaarat next Friday! Thanks for the heads up.

Your Myspace link is NQR. Typo on "/deadlettercirucs"

Yup he's awesome, we've got a show with them tomorrow night. Had the pleasure of doin a few shows with them, and he's certainly a fantastic bassist. Standout track on the album, particularly from a bass point of view is Alien....

And Kim's vocals are simply some of the best I've heard!

hey thanks for the typo haha, yes alien is definetley an awesome bass track also i love the slap solo in lines on the album its one of the only soft slap solos and i got the pleasure of being right in front of him while he did it live.

website actually www.myspace.com/deadlettercircus for those who didnt figure that out

Yeah Stu was telling me he was really happy with the tone in Alien, but they didn't have time to go back and re-do all the parts with that tone...

Very Karnivoolish..

Crappy computer speakers don't allow me to hear the bass very... I'll have to take a listen at another person's house.

What band do you play with Anarchyok?

I'm in Fading Hour...we've had 3 shows with DLC now, and been impressed every time.

Stu used my cabs on friday night, and it was great to hear his tone coming out of them. He's got a very very fast right hand, judging from some of the noodling he was doing during soundcheck...very impressed!!
