Stoner/DOOM Bassists thread part 38: The Father, The Son, and The Holy Smoke.

Thanks for the good words, guys!

Skip, drummer hits pretty hard. Never have trouble hearing him live. I think the sound has a lot to do with the camera used and how they were positioned. We actually have this entire show taped (the venue records sound from the board and video from a tripod, gives it to you on a DVD for $1) and the volume is much more even on those files. Soon as they're done being edited we'll upload them to facebook.

Also, Sludgelord just posted an interview I did with them! This is one of the coolest things that has happened to me yet: http://thesludgelord.blogspot.com/20...supervoid.html

Awesome!!!! That sounds like a pretty wicked venue!

Whose the guitarist next to you playing the (i think its a) Tele? Is that negative theory? His tone is very very tasty, if it was takeout I'd eat it every night.

and yes, the entire song is one riff and it will be staying that way oh and the bass is pretty low in the mix, but you should be able to get the idea.

Sounds great and the drumming is bad ass!

[ampegfuzz]

I don't know but I imagine its a requirement to beat the shiz out of drums if your employed by Steve brooks. The drummers for torche and floor both kicked their kick drum like they wanted it to explode.

Nice interview!

I didn't know you guys were in the woodshed 9 months making that lovely baby, Supervoid.

negative theory is the one with the long hair and the les paul. Bth our guitarists have great tone. All 3 stringed instruments sit together very well.

Technically it was even longer than that. The guitarists were jamming in late 2011. When I moved in January 2012 that's when things started rolling. We wanted to make sure we could put on an impressive show before we started gigging.

I wondered about that. The mod is a super tight in the boss housing. I thought about rehousing it but why bother if I can't change the knobs. I haven't found anything to replace the boss dual tone knob and I haven't a clue how to separate them into individual knobs.

I think you'll really dig how the mod transforms the pedal. Its my always on pedal.

[mc_muench]

I actually like the small knobs for this pedal, once my guitarist etches it, they give more room to see the etch work.


And I'm now realizing, we shouldnt rush into/worry about getting into shows, when they come, they will come. We are finally starting on artwork, songs are being finished, we havent even recorded a demo yet, we are ready for a show but we wont be a perfectly oiled machine doing it. With me going back to school, its like a forced break, for more perfecting and then we can record a great debut full length. And once school is out, we can hit it hard.

Gotcha, and i def agree that all of the string players have great tone. Definitely sounded like a cohesive wall of sludgey mayhem!

Ya the more I look at the knobs on that enclosure I am starting to come around to the possibilities. What size enclosure is that?

[mc_muench]

1590BB, but you need a deeper one than the one I got.

[dunwichamps]

they have a tall version of that one around

[The_Janitor]

I listened to a bunch of clips of that ODB-3 mod. I'm definitely intrigued. It completely changes the character of the pedal. The thing is, I've got a huge, brutal tone with the stock ODB-3. I think I might buy a used one just to mod it, so I can have both. Maybe I'll paint the modded one or something.

I know it's hard to believe, but yes, the stock ODB-3 can sound good.

[JoeVictim]

I know I'm going to be jinxed now, but work is slow and they need to let me go home early.

Heavy practice planned for tomorrow. Going to run through the set a few times with intro music and maybe try to work on Blood Eagle a little. That riff just crushes so good. Then we have two more songs coming down the pipe. Just have to finalize lyrics on them... (hopefully remember them when it's time to sing them. LOL)

I'll suggest spice where I can for my drummer, thanks for the tip Sam. I want us to be as heavy as possible. I appreciate being able to bounce stuff off of you guys.

That's why this thread rules.

[Lazarus.Bird]

Ok guys. It's almost 2013. What was your top album of 2012?

For me, it is a no brainer. Their first album was great, but each release after that got weaker and weaker. Well The Sword blew me away with Apocryphon. I just can't stop listening to it.

[mc_muench]

Om, Advaitic Songs...

[ampegfuzz]

I don't buy too much music. And there is so much stuff I don't have it's ridiculous. Why catch up now.

[Lazarus.Bird]

PS meant to post this yesterday. This is probably my favorite Wo Fat song. Takes awhile to kick in, but man is it gnarly.
