Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

[Pelham Bleu]

No band practice this week. After doing such much drum/bass tracking the past three weeks, I don't mind a little break. Still trying to punch in a new bass track over an old, live-no-click drum track we did with our first drummer. Damn, it's tough! That and BW play should keep me occupied for a the next few days...

Just got done watching Charles Bradley: Soul of America. Man, that dudes deserves all the success in the world.

i'll have to check that out.

Is there a way to turn off embedded videos on my account?

Rushing you might dig these guys. I saw Antibalas in Richmond about 4 years back, shaking booty good time, bassist played an old Grabber.

When I saw Charles Bradley it was awesome. Rarely have I ever seen a person with that much energy and power that it just radiates throughout the crowd. Not to mention his band was fantastic.

We kind of toe the line between doom and post-metal but just got our first release mastered so thought I'd share a song

Thanks man! Just got it back so haven't gotten to dissect it but I'm digging the production so far

a shame you live far away, a show would be in order.

I live in Duluth, MN where it's near impossible to even get a show unless you have banjos and a mustache

Damn, yeah that's way the hell up there. I'm in Madison, WI - if you're ever interested in playing a show down here let me know and we can set something up. Can't promise that you'll get paid much but we try to help out traveling bands.

Cool tune man, I dig it. You should see about trekking over to WI for a long weekend to hook up some gigs with some of the cheeseheads in this thread.

 

[Ron Now]

+1 cool track man.

 

[I am Soma]

Ha I'm in Madison a bunch for work, but if we ever are game to head there I'll definately keep ya posted to set up a show. Ton of hipsters in Madison as well lol

Hipsters yes, but also tons of metal/sludge/stoner/noise-rock fans for a town this size.

This is really really good.

The production puts my band's debut to shame, ha ha.

 

[I am Soma]

We lucked out production wise with a friend who went to school for engineering and plugged about 100k into recording gear. Since he digs us he gave us a hell of a deal for the end product!

 

[I am Soma]

I guess we put up another 4 songs on our soundcloud

and to jump back to the earlier dually conversation...

I'm currently saving my pennies for a dually and have been talking to Dave @gigmaster and was wondering what config everyone loves? (3015's vs faitials or even the "T" version)

I'll be putting a Mesa Buster through and would love to hear other people's opinions.

My dually will materialize someday. I have a Demeter pre setup, a gk mb500 and a 60 watt tube head (to put back together first). My basses are a bass vi and roadstar p tuned to b, both have flats.

How do you like your buster I missed buying one recently.

If any of my amps suck I'll dump them, I'm interested in the orange terror bass and a 100-200 watt tube head.
