Re: The Acoustic Thread
I watched a minute of one of his videos once. I'd like that minute back please, I thought it was fucking dreadful.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Re: The Acoustic Thread
That Ibanez guitar sounds absolutely terrible. Really thin and trebly, almost no sustain. I suppose it suits this style of playing & music well as it is easy to get it over the top of the mix. And playing that fast, you need attack & not sustain.

Re: The Acoustic Thread
Someone sent me a Polyphia video to watch and I genuinely thought they were trolling me with one of those “[insert band] shreds” videos.

He is dreamy but no thumb tapping or sweep picking going on

Re: The Acoustic Thread
We have a special thread to keep this guy contained.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: The Acoustic Thread
This would be so good in isolation. It's just that I love the album version of this song so much, that anything else grates a little.

Re: The Acoustic Thread
I heard this one first, before the album version, right at the beginning of my rekindled love of acoustics. At the time I was also discovering acoustics other than dreadnoughts and classical. It kinda stuck with me.
