    Check out this guy I recorded on the weekend!

    Just want to know what you guys think of this. There's no bass (criminal! hurhurhur) and I’m reasonably new to recording, but this guy wanted a lo-fi punk sound and I think we may have nailed it. I really dig the songs too. It’s all pretty upbeat pop-punk stuff, but there’s bits and pieces of...

    Tunecore / CD Baby/ ReverbNation

    Who uses them? Which one is best? What are some alternatives? Were they of any advantage? Worth the price? Tell me everything!

    Greatest Punk Basists

    OH! And any bassist from Choking Victim and Leftover Crack. They're all playing each others recycled basslines and no one is really sure who wrote them first, but they're all very talented bassists. I urge you all to check out 'No Gods, No Managers'. The first and only album by Choking...

    rhythm with a pick?

    You can always get a good rhythm with picking. I prefer the sound of picking, but I find I'm faster with my fingers. So at the moment I'm working really hard on getting my upstrokes and downstrokes on par in dynamics. I'm already getting a better rhythm from it. It's fluid AND it sounds even...

    What is your 'line check' song?

    When the engineer says "okay...bass" in that deep muffled voice through the fold back - what do you play? I never consider it beforehand, but I always seem to go straight for the riff from 'Five Finger Discount' by Choking Victim or 'Anxoius Mofo' by Minutemen. It's practical, melodic, uses...

    Pick vs fingers (kinda)

    I'm faster with my fingers, but I don't like the sound. Too dull

    Need help with my Reggae

    What did the rastafarian say when he ran out of weed halfway through listening to a reggae record? What the f*ck is this sh*t?

    Favorite Weird/Random Pedal Names?

    I did paint it! I'll post some photos up here later on (maybe. The picture on it is a little suggestive). It's not really an effects pedal though. The muff refers to something else entirely. All it is is a box with a footswitch. One mode of the switch goes direct from one jack to the other...
