Here's to 40 more years lost in the desert.

I once held that upper horn that is caressing her boobs.

There has to be more out there for @Kawai-chang and I.

The Sludgelord: SONG PREMIERE: Hex Volt - "Devour All"

Yeah well...

I just thought I'd share some thoughts about "bi-amping with one Amp"

My Inspiration was Royal Blood, that dood Plays a bass thru an octave up in a geetard-stack and the bass Signal into bass...

so my thoughts are....

I use an akai unibass which gives me the dry bass Signal and a Signal that is put one octave up and added with a fifth, so I get one Signal "bass" and one Signal "guitar powerchord". All mixed together and put thru my ampeg Setup it sounded okay but meeeh...


so now:
Bass into comp into unibass, dry Signal into muff/overdrive into ampeg preamp, geetar Signal into a delay and a geetar preamp, both mixed together into poweramp and bass cabs

this is what I'm gonna try as soon as I get the geetar preamp (lookin at joyo orange Juice or marshal rack pre) and I Need to build a two channel passive line mixer.

I hope this will be DOOOOM!

I came around to doom\stoner late in the game. I was a grind & death guy that always liked some of the sludgier stuff like Obituary and Bolt Thrower. I love big gnarly riffs and thick guitar sounds, but what drove me away initially was the retro feel of it. I remember hearing Cathedral's Ride when it first came out and liking the idea of it, but not the vibe around it. That was 20 years ago and I can deal with stuff like that now, but I've always wondered why 70s retro worship is such a big part of doom and stoner metal. Personally I hate the look of the 70s, don't idolize any of the gear from that period, and really only like Sabbath in terms of music from that era.
Can retro be removed from doom\stoner and have them still be what they are? What is the attraction to the 70s aesthetic anyway? For ten years people looked like they couldn't find a mirror and had gone color blind.

That escalated quickly.

DOOOOOM

 

[Corey Y]

SOME TRAVERSE THE VORTEX TO DWELL IN DAYS GONE BY, OTHERS JOURNEY TO THE DEPTHS OF HUMAN MISERY IN THE DARK CORNERS OF OUR PRESENT. SOME SEEK THE WARM EMBRACE OF FUZZ, OTHERS TO BE UTTERLY DESTROYED BY DISTORTION. SOME SPEAK IN SCREAMS, SOME WAIL LIKE THE BANSHEE, OTHERS GROWL LIKE A BEAST.

ALL ARE DOOMED.

YOUR PASSION BURNS LIKE A THOUSAND SUNS, EAGLE MAN. BEWARE, THOSE WHO SEEK THE LOVE OF INSECTOID WOMEN ARE OFTEN CONSUMED. THOUGH IN THEIR ETERNAL DIGESTION, OFTEN FIND THE MOST TERRIBLE OF ECSTASIES.

Corey has gone all H.P. Lovecraft on us.

Not until he evokes cyclopean ruins of non-Euclidian geometric origin.

Also, to really get into Lovecraft there should be at least one extended post about gambrel roofs.
