Can't say I've ever thought of their tone as twangy, I use my tele with filtertrons quite a bit in our band, but been giving the LP some love again recently, which I don't think sounds as good thru my rig as the tele, but has more balls, hmmm....mrmofo wrote:I was at the Auckland Show, great to see and hear. the Juno was HUGE!!!! pumped out bass for days bro.

My only gripe was the choice of Guitars the Guys use. I cant accept that many Telecasters, black ones, cream ones and then when its time to Chunk, the dynamics grow in momentum to a sheer amount of post Djent all we got was Twang Twang Twang.
The guitarists should invest in an KH2 or a Les Paul and bring the Brootz when needed as the Tellies' didn't bring it on the night.
damn good album and show.

That'd basically be a whole lot of rhythmic picking that you wouldn't be able to hear because of delay and reverb anyway

Re: Post-Rock Artists
oh crappola - does getting into this new-fangled genre mean I have to overhaul my rig? I did have to google djent, and I definitely won't go down that path. Can barely cope with six strings and 4/4 is tricky counting for my brain.

Re: Post-Rock Artists
The forum will make you want to overhaul your rig on a daily basis anyway, at least a new genre will give you a purpose!HackSaw wrote:oh crappola - does getting into this new-fangled genre mean I have to overhaul my rig?

Re: Post-Rock Artists
Nah, it's a desire to make up for lack of musicianship and skill through the purchase of new toys that makes me want to overhaul my rig. It's also why I reckon I might start some sort of droney noise death punk post apocalyptic rockabilly swing band.jeremyb wrote:

@Jeremyb
The guitar tone overall was superb, my comment or concern was only in the heaver parts of the songs. I missed the chunk of humbuckers and the attitude of a harder personality type.

There are still some that think the neck PU is moved to accommodate the extra frets which only proves they cannot detect the difference in length of each.

Heres a track by my band Samsara, it's a little rough in spots as it's just a demo, posted it elsewhere on here but it kinda belongs here....

Re: Post-Rock Artists
Took me ages to pluck up the courage to play with others, but now I have a really great bunch of dudes in the band and we are all passionate about the kinda music we make which makes a massive differenceHackSaw wrote:Sweet track Jeremy, at the start of this thread did I read you were just learning?

Re: Post-Rock Artists
my post rock project is starting to gain some traction finally.
Got a new bass player, very driven, writes heaps of cool shit and helps bring more structure to everything.
Here's our first decent recording, this one actually has vocals haha.
https://soundcloud.com/cecilturbine/con ... percussion
It's really evolved beyond a Russian Circles wanna band which is what it kind of started as
We definitely have some post metal moments (esp in the tracks written by me) but the bassist brings a poppier melodic side to things.
But we're also starting to bring in a math element as well (inspired by Battles & Tortoise) so starting to bring in weird time signatures and sampling and stuff. Picked up a Novation Launchkey Mini from work the other day, really fun to sample bass/guitar sounds, fuck them up in logic and then chuck em on the sample pads and make some weird sounding shit
