Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread Pt. 44 Magnum.. the big boys.

[Rushing]

Its been months since I have practice with ze band because the drummer had some fam issues to deal with. We have practice scheduled for next weekend! Stoked!

As far as the name thing goes. We have been calling ourselves L.I.B. (Let It Breathe) but after partaking in some magic I decided we should be called "J.R.R. Toking". The three guys in the band Jason, Randy, Rob. If not a band name it should definitely be used as the name of our first release.

Had a great practice tonight, started out as a "getting ready for a show" practice but turned into a writing practice after we jammed a slow mammoth riff that just wrote itself into a song. Its our slowest and fastest and heaviest song to date.

Ill see if I can post it to soundcloud eventually,


And my guitarists new Windsor is sweet! It can go from straight up classic rock to sludgy DOOM. Our sound has really come a long way.

I'm the same way except when it comes to the bluebeard. I keep its gain high. It feedsback really easy. I start a song with feedback and use it in other ones.

Interesting... also, whoever it was that was interested in semi-hollows, looks like there's a metric crap ton of new models in those pictures lol.

Has anyone else listened to Cult of Luna's Vertikal album yet? I guess it came out the 25th in Europe. I'd have to say I like it a lot...

Seriously. Cool to see so many choices but what the hell? Did we all somehow miss some massive new hollow body trend? At least we know what talk bass will be all aflame with.

That's got to be a rush. Even successful shows in my neck of the woods top out of 40 people.

Is that what the intro is from?

[JoeVictim]

Pallbearer mentions tube amp on their facebook, and Nick is recommended. How ****ing awesome is that? Of course being budget minded (and the band asking about replacing the amp on the road), I gave a nod to musicgoround. But to see Dunwich come up... It may as well have been Pallbearer asking who should open, and one of our bands gets mentioned. Congratz dude.

I`m not sure what that intro is from Laz. But the title of the song is taken from a line right out of the movie.

Just went through all the pics from namm on premiere guitar... so far the only thing that has me excited is that orange pedal. If it has a tube in it, sold. Oh and the VT bass driver di is a big maybe.
