the flaming lips it overtakes me

[we jam econo]

I was Wounding if anybody knows what king of distortion Michael Ivins used on the song it overtakes me. Thanks

Love that riff! Not sure exactly what he uses but I get fairly close with a P-Bass and tubescreamer based OD (e.g. Xotic Bass BB, Digitech Bad Monkey, Fulltone Bassdrive, etc).

This is mostly about the new album, but it should help. I'm going to see them in May so I'll try to get a pic of his pedal board.

Uh, If you're going to a Lips show and end up taking pictures, you're doing it wrong.

I have nothing of value to add other than seeing the Flaming Lips live for the first time a few years ago played a huge part in my effects pedal acquisition.
