Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Lungfish - everything.... but initially Necklace of Heads and Rainbows from Atoms
Neurosis- Enemy of the Sun
Operation Ivy
Einsturzende Neubauten- tabula rasa
(And everything else!...that was just the first one I heard)
Joy Division- Substance...
 
The Clash - The Clash
Never Mind The Bollocks - Sex Pistols
Black Sabbath - Paranoid (really only War Pigs on endless repeat, by which I mean, going over to the record, picking up the needle and going back to the beginning, olde skool stylee)
Chicago Transit Authority - CTA
Alice Cooper - Greatest Hits
 
It's still my favorite by a long shot. Rated R is really good, Songs for the Deaf is obviously incredible, but there's something about that first album. Lots of good memories attached to it for me as well.

If Only and Mexicola are among my top QOTSA tunes.

Milk Duct Tape for the drive in to work, perfection! Great EP Matt U!!!

Thanks!

As for the music list, what came to mind was stuff that either came out when I was a kid or was around the house:

Metallica - Black Album
GNR - Use Your Illusion II
Green Day - Dookie
Queen - A Night At The Opera
LZ - IV
AC/DC - Live

Slight dirt dilemma update. Borrowed some pedals from a from a friend and one of them was the FEA dual band distortion. Sounds like what I'm going for after a big learning curve trying to figure the dang thing out. I might of got a tone from my rat tail that might work also. How I didn't get that in the studio is on me I suppose. Won't know 100% since I was playing thru a different amp and not in the band mix but these pedals are a good start.
 
Doom Brethren. Checkout the graphics mock up for a new fuzz I'm helping produce. Graphics were done by me. Art is from Arnold Boclin's "Isle of the Dead". The circuit is purely the masterwork of my mentor, Joe Frantzen. This circuit has been in the process of being developed since 1996 according to Joe. He's the most skilled amp/pedal builder I know, but doesn't really have much exposure at all, sadly. Hopefully we can change that with some sound clips soon. I can comfortably say it's the most amazing fuzz I've ever played. Blew my brains out. He's very secretive about his IP, but I can tell you it's a PNP Germanium based fuzz. One of the few designs that purely his creation, and not based of off some other design with tweaks. It sounds completely unique and is unbelievably versatile. He even pots the boards so no one can reverse-engineer it, like Klons.

There's some artifacts in the clouds, from a hasty mock-up. Will be redoing that now that the art is approved.

Pelham and Sam..... YOURE FIRED!


(i know I went out on a limb with Joy Division.... but we cant let you stink up the place with no dookie!) :woot:


Ps.. I WANT A CYCLOPS EMOJI!

i was in 10th grade and just getting into music. Green Day is still one of my favorite bands, some of the more recent stuff I can do without but I still think they can write some great songs.
