Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Good day all, I would like to share some work we published some weeks ago, I guess this is the best thread for it

We're playing stoner-influenced post rock; this was all recorded in rehersal room, we are a 3 piece instrumental band made of people with completely different tastes who happened to create this



Drummer's influences comes from post-rock & metal, guitarist's from stoner and psych, and mine come from... punk rock.
This is a project we started for the sole purpose of creating something we like and enjoy playing, and we're really doing that. Hopefully we'll find some venues to play it live too (it's quite hard in this area)

Feedback is very appreciated! It's actually a demo so the are clear imperfections! At times I think why we put it on spotify instead of bandcamp or soundcluod, but whatever!

You should definitely put it on bandcamp.

Bass could be louder, but I know it's just a demo. Good riffs.

So, Yob and Bell Witch were amazing. Got to chat for a sec with Mike and Aaron from Yob and Dylan from Bell Witch. All super nice dudes.

Aaron was playing his EGC bass. Sounded huge. He was playing thru a heritage svt into a 2x15 and a hi-tone 200 (not familiar with this brand, but its a hiwatt clone - Mike had 2 100watters). Aaron told me that bass weighs like 13lbs. Haha.

Dylan from Bell Witch. He had a drool worthy load of gear: A sound city 120 into a soldano 4x12, a svt II into a 8x10, a fender twin, a svt into a black 4x10? or 4x12, and another svt into an old musicman 4x10.

His pedalboard was crazy too, with 3 el capistans AND 3 blue sky delays, an EBS valve drive pedal and some others i couldn't identify.

Howdy boyos, long time no post! Hope all is well. My last contact with anyone from the S/D crew was seeing Max and Aron at the Milwaukee Sleep show (Subrosa opening) this past spring, which was fun. I may go to the 8/1 set, too.

I'm strictly off all social media these days and haven't had much music-wise to post about around these parts. Been gigging with a couple new groups since relocating to Chicago, though both are part-time-ish and I'm playing about once every other month between them. That needs to step up at some point or I'll look for new options. Rig-wise, I'm mostly plugging my Ric into whatever the venue has handy, which keeps it easy as I take the bus to most gigs. I'll be back home in IA for a minute this week; picking up my AD200 and OBC410 to bring back! Won't be fun to lug it up to my crib, but I misses it.

When I use dirt, which has become quite rare, I stick to the ol' Turbo Rat. What's the new hotness in the world of bass fuzz?
