Stoner/DOOM Bassists thread part 37: Ancient Alien Fuzz

By the way, we were discussing selling out the other day... what do you guys think of this?

Eh, can't say that I wouldn't do the same in their position. But man, they've come a looooong way since I saw them way back in 2000-2001. It was at the fireside bowl in chicago opening for drunk horse. I thought they were awesome, got the EP and it ruled, liked them less with each release.
 
Pixar is awesome, Mastodon is awesome. I don't see the problem. They have really just been doing whatever they think is cool for years. They've clearly evolved as a band quite a bit and I don't think they're anywhere near a "sell out".

Long shot but does anyone know of how I could get in touch with Jus Oborn personally? Seems like I'm never going to succeed with this, haha.

That's kinda my feeling. Although I felt they already kind of "sold out" by using a rap producer on their last album and making what I thought was a terrible ****ing record.

I just expect people to whine and complain about the Monsters Inc thing, which I find humorous. If you don't like it, don't listen to it. It doesn't change the music they already made. The ATHF stuff was awesome.

Send an email to whatever EW's current record label is, they'll probably forward it to him if you ask nicely.

Don't be surprised if he doesn't respond, though. When I met him he was a HUGE DICKBAG. Maybe's he's mellowed, but jesus, what a cockass.

3 hours...

recording ominous vocals for backwards transcribe and ultimate insertion into creepy organ piece. Should be fun.

A few more
John Garcia, Saint of renaming the same band more times than neccessary ;)
Bobby Liebling, Saint of Recovery
Jus Oborn, Saint of Destruction

"In Geezer We Trust"

Should call Dan Maines the Silent Saint or something. Dude has been killing it with the best of them for like 25 years and no one ever ****ing talks about him.

Pretty awesome pedalboard from Agape Custom. Too bad they violate my policy of not advertising you are a Christian company ;)

I was thinking the other day that if I ever sold custom speaker cabs, they'd be advertised as being crafted with black magic hoodoo. I'd inscribe the insides with runes and magic circles to make sure the cabs had access to eternal wells of thunderous sonic power.

I think I would buy a cab like that.

I made this when I was going to make my own cabs. Would be cool for an amp plate.
