Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread Part 28: Chicken Pot Pie

Wow, after reading that, it's amazing no one died or got hurt worse.

MattS that is a great P, I actually have two squier P's I plan on doing the Double P thing too.

Anyone here able to comment on how a bridge P sounds like compared to the typical mid position?
 
This Sword track kicks ass.

Yeah, I like it a lot more than the first one. It's got more evolution to it. The synth stuff was weird at first (I thought it was an ad playing before the video at first), but it really fits. Really looking forward to the rest of the album.

Also, saw on Facebook this morning that Conan was headed back into the studio to record some new demos.
 
I picked up a "Baroness" album "the Green & the Yellow", I think the name was, and it was NOT what I was expecting. Pretty not-doom/stoner. Is this the same band?

Unfortunately, yes. That album is kinda weird to me. I was expecting at least SOMETHING heavy, but what they brought was probably the least heavy thing I've heard in a while. It's an OK record, but not my favorite ever.
 
Musically not very pertinent to the thread, but here's a tonal comparison of the SBMM Ray34CA to my Fender Standard (MIM) Precision. New grindcore project I'm working on, just roughing out some ideas, decided to try out the new bass head to head and see how it sounded. Doesn't really portray how each sits in the mix, as there's no guitars yet.

Both recorded direct, with distortion, eq, cab sim, compression and the whole works added in Logic. Not a dry DI comparison, more of a real world mix comparison, all the same settings on both tracks, with a little volume compensation to make things even.
