Stoner/DOOM Bassists thread part 37: Ancient Alien Fuzz

crap!... so i picked up a used stingray locally for a steal with the intent to flip it. I dont have the spare cash at the moment. Well dammit!! I bought it sight unseen and unplayed for the price. I get it home its the best sounding and playing stingray Ive ever had...and Ive had alot. I cant really afford to keep it, but Ill be damned if Im letting it go and I now I have to figure out what else to sell... argh.

Dont you love when that happens :) sometimes i miss my Ray.

Pics! I board in 15 minutes and the plane has wifi, I'll be keeping an eye out.
 
Woke up this morning to a surprise: Our band is on the YooToobs. Recorded on an iphone w/questionable quality, but it's there. Pretty cool!



Dig the song man. I though the singer was going to start screaming, but what he is doing makes the song heavier and a little more evil.


Also, nice bass, Road Bull! Looking forward to seeing how it cleans up.

Thanks man. I will start sorting it out today. lol. I knew you would see that Traynor head. Did you see the sunn cab that went with it?

Don't you love it when that happens? I keep doing that with pedals and used basses. I obsess about something that I think I need and then when I get it, I feel a bit guilty for having so much stuff. I think that is why a new gear purchase for me is like an episode of Surviving the Cut. Everything has to earn its place among all the other gear that I horde. lol.

Lets see some pictures of this Ray man!
 
We were learning "she's so heavey" last night at practice, it kicked our azz, and we still have a lot of work on it, but its going to be a a great cover song along with No Quarter

Do any of you guys play covers?

We've talked about doing some, especially that song cause I love it so much, but instead we just write new songs instead haha.

Deets? Pics? Don't leave us hanging.

Went to a record release party last night for a local band called Carousel. They kicked ass! Very 70s rock and roll. Bet a lot of you guys would dig them:
 
Not a bad little haul...

Suplecs did a cool cover of I want you (She's so heavy). It's dumbed down a little bit, but it works. (skip to 3:08)

We do a cover of The Ghoul by Pentagram. It's a fun one.
