    Bands That Had 2 (or more) Golden Ages

    Yeah, Black Sabbath when they first started out had their first golden age (with albums like Paranoid), then they slowly stagnated and sort of faded away... Until Dio joined, and they had another one with Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules. And then again they sort of faded away during the 90s, until...

    One amp to rule them all....

    One amp to rule them all One amp to find them One amp to bring them all And in the dankness bind them I'm sorry, I couldn't resist.

    List 4 of your greatest tone players..........

    Yeah, I am really thankful that I got to see him live, don't get me wrong. I just wish I could get a better view of what was going on, you know? It was still absolutely amazing - the gig lasted maybe about 2 hours, but after it was done all I could think was "man, that felt like 30 minutes, at most"

    List 4 of your greatest tone players..........

    I got to see him live for the first and only time in my life last December. My dad has been slow with buying tickets, as usual, so I had to sit in the last row. I regret not being able to see him up close, and I probably always will. RIP Lemmy

    What's the essential gear I need for home recording?

    Great, thank you! And thanks to everyone who has given me advice on this, too! I'll go pick up a Scarlett from my local music store when I can.

    What's the essential gear I need for home recording?

    Yeah, I am starting out small, with just a cover channel. We're only planning to start recording somewhere in 2017-2018, so I think I have plenty of time to learn. The reason I'm asking about this now is because I hate swapping out gear once I have had it for some time already. We're planning to...

    List 4 of your greatest tone players..........

    Please do. I'm struggling so hard to find a good clean tone for my Death Metal band, it'd be great to have something to point me in the right direction.

    List 4 of your greatest tone players..........

    Oooh, that's a tough one. Let's see: Alex Webster, Les Claypool (especially on the Brown Album), Al Cisneros, and probably Dixie Dave

    What's the essential gear I need for home recording?

    What about if I had to record a whole band for a commercial release? Would the Scarlett still be good for that?

    What's the essential gear I need for home recording?

    Are there any noticeable advantages to spending the extra money and buying the Clarett thunderbolt interface?

    Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

    Well, I only have one pedal right now. But my planned out signal path (for the fuzzes) is: noise gate effect send -> Wounded Paw four way splitter -> 1) Darkglass Duality 2) Big Spider 3) Fuzz Mid pedal 4) Clean signal - > into a Wounded Paw mixer -> noise gate return

    Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

    Can you guys recommend a good, mid-heavy fuzz pedal for my stoner doom tone? (I already have a Darkglass Duality to handle the highs and am planning to get a Verellen Big Spider for the lows)

    Oldchella ticket prices

    I guess I'm lucky. I just bought a 125 euro ticket to a three-day festival, and 90 euros for a single-day festival with Black Sabbath as a headliner. I admit, they aren't the Who or Bob Dylan, but 1.5K? C'mon. I could buy a new bass amp for that! And people here complain about ticket prices.

    Swapping out my Bass Head

    Hello, TalkBass! So in my epic quest to find the ultimate stoner tone, I came across Verellen amplifiers. I also came across the pain of trying to mic up a speaker in the terrible acoustic environment of my house. I sent them a message, and we discussed the possibility of me ordering a Meatsmoke...
