Hi. I'm one of the guitarists in the present version of the Magic Band and I just wanted to thank you for mentioning "Trout Mask Replica". The only original alumnus presently involved is John "Drumbo" French but John was one of the longest serving members of the band and appears on all of Trout Mask. I highly recommend reading either his book called "Beefheart: Through the Eyes of Magic" or Bill Harkleroad's (guitarist from TMB who was called "Zoot Horn Rollo") book called "Lunar Notes". Finally, so-called weird albums for you to check out: "Music of Guatemala" by the San Lucas Band and "Basic" by Fred Maher/Robert Quine. Maybe also "Bitches Without Britches" by Kevin Blechdom. Thanks. Love the videos.

@neut9270 2 года назад

Hi from the future, I would like to recommend to anyone who genuinely enjoys TMR to check out the band Still House Plants. It's a bit simpler, they are not juggling as many instruments, but it's a similar chaotic vibe.

This dude has a lot of Sovtek MiG 60 amps. I had one of those in high school that I got new for $250; 60 watt all tube head. Biggest gear regret was selling that amp.

@capth00k 6 лет назад

yeah, I was wondering about those ... I passed one up recently. Apparently they are build pretty solidly; almost a point to point design but with a PCB in the middle I think if I remember correctly...

@robertlibutti6605 6 лет назад

I was stupid and bought a Mess Dual Recto. I really didn't understand tube amps at the time and thought it was better and what I needed. Needless to say, that thing didn't get much use and was also eventually sold (for not to much of a loss luckily). Wish I'd just understood what I had and kept the Sovtek.

I saw Captain Beefheart at Ludlow Garage in Cincinnati when I was in college. It was on a freezing day and a group of us waited outside the stage door to see if we could walk in free with the band. When he walked up with his band I said, “How ‘bout it, Captain?” He looked around and replied, “It’s so cold the birds won’t fly... come on in” in a gravelly voice, and put on a great show.

@panhandlegeardemos6837 6 лет назад

Also, put that miku pedal infront of a volume pedal and then use delay/reverb and you got yourself an interesting swell sound.

@tobiasgehring2462 5 лет назад

I'm so disappointed that there are so many "weird pedal" videos that include the Miki and then just use it by itself or right at the end of a signal chain. Sure if you're doing a list of pedals just giving a quick overview (like this one), you don't necessarily have time to show it off, but I've seen several videos that spend ages doing stuff with it, then declare it garbage because they clearly have no idea how to use it well. Stick it right at the start of the chain, then put some interesting stuff after it to morph it's vaguely crappy raw sound into something actually cool. Or at the very least chuck on some chorus and a dab of reverb to give it some depth and space.

Adult Themes for Voice is an album recorded by Mike Patton (vocalist for Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Fantômas, Tomahawk, Peeping Tom) in hotel rooms during a Faith No More tour. It consists of vocal noises by Patton himself. The 34 tracks are not considered singing in any conventional sense, as they consist mainly of Patton shouting, screaming, clapping, squeaking and moaning. These elements were then spliced and edited in a fashion that resulted in a dramatic ebb and flow of bizarre, albeit organic sounding compositions. The compositions do not adhere to traditional song structure. The tracks are named after hotel and room he was staying in.

@themikeaustin 5 лет назад

John Coltrane's "Ascension" album was weird for me. I went into Sam Goody on 5th Ave and 42nd Street back in the mid-60s and asked an employee to recommend a Coltrane record. "Ascension" is what he chose. For lack of a better word, it's "free" jazz. There are ~10 musicians on the record. I used to bet friends that they couldn't listen to the record all the way through. I never lost. Later, I worked in a pizza place and would play this music when we wanted patrons to leave at closing time. The person who wrote the liner notes stated that the music was so intense that non-musicians in the recording studio were screaming and the writer was amazed that the screaming didn't bleed over onto the recording.

"Weird is good" That's been our family motto for years. We adopted 6 kids to go along with our 3 bio-kids. At one point we were reminding our then 9th grade daughter "Weird is good!" She replied, "yeah, mom, but sometimes weird is just weird." Good pedal stuff. I've watched several episodes today, and I think I'm going to send you some stuff to mod.

@davewebb3847 5 лет назад

DOD FX22 Vibrothang. It's a trem, it's a phaser, it's neither, and if you're not careful, it will start talking to you. Very usable at less extreme settings.

@Cauldronofbats666 5 лет назад

it’s really cool how you talk about every type of guitar effect out there. instead of just pedaling your own. (no pun intended). you’re clearly very passionate about guitar sounds and it’s very fun to watch.

One of my favorite weird records and just plain favorite records is Torture Garden by Naked City. John Zorn is at his punk rock Jazz Thrash best in this record. He enlists an insane Japanese vocalist named Eye from the band The Boredoms and don’t forget Bill Frisell on guitar. Nirvana took them on tour at one point. Great stuff!

@darthanddedeu2580 3 года назад

Check out z-rock Hawaii, it's ween with the Boredoms

@johnblood10 2 года назад

I know I’m replying to a year-old comment, but describing Eye as “insane” is quite literally true, and might even be understating things. One of his “danger music” performances ended when he drove a bulldozer through the rear wall of the venue and onto the stage, which I’d imagine sorta signals the end of the show by default.

@simonv7449 5 лет назад

Hey man, I never tried a JHS pedal before and fell on your channel by surprise. I want to give you praise for this channel, it’s good to see such recognition and optimism. I’m talking about your praise of your competitors, it is a noble passion. The rainger video is the perfect exemple. As a diy enthusiast who likes to mess with pedals , MIG-50 owner , and beefheart fan (is it « through the eyes of magic » you’re talking about at the end?) I feel like a brother from another mother. And your enthusiasm cheered me in a rough patch so cheers to that. Oh and I will absolutely buy a clover

@JasminBellavance_Music 6 лет назад

Fantomas - Fantomas (1999) is pretty epic! Saw them live one time and the show lasted only 50min...on that 50min, Patton played at less 10min of cymbales (on Dave's drums)! He then said "You like that assholes?" and when on with 5 more minutes of cymbales as an encore and leave....wow!

Weird is my favorite kind of pedal. All the amp-in-a-box pedals and the 10,000th variation on a Tube Screamer bore me. A pedal that does something way different from what an amp alone can do is much more interesting.

Trout Mask Replica is a record that I can't imagine my life without.

@davelanciani-dimaensionx 5 лет назад

I love my Digitech FreQout pedal. I'm a home-studio guy, and I love getting feedback at VERY LOW volume. I use it all the time. It's probably the result of the Boss Feedbacker and that Fender thing mating. Trout Mask Replica was recorded by Frank Zappa at the house that Don Van Vliet and his band were renting. Van Vliet was actually quite mad at Frank for recording it there, because he thought Frank was just being cheap. Frank was just trying to record them in an environment that he thought they'd be comfortable and creative in.

@goopy1971 4 года назад

Partially true. Some songs such as "China Pig" and "Hair Pie" were recorded there but the majority of the album was recorded in a studio. In a single session I think? Not to be a know it all. I read John Frenchs book in high school for this.

@TheFarout69 3 года назад

Boss's fb-2 (I believe?) is unreal feedback wise. when you hold it down it pumps 48 db's of clean juice for actual feedback. Nothin like the real thing.

@DrewrGriff 6 лет назад

Giles Corey is my go-to weird album. Written by Dan Barrett (Have a Nice Life), this record is a goddamn trip. It's a little difficult to identify the album's genre... maybe noise-drone-ambient-folk-sadtime music? Nevermind, that wasn't difficult. The album and it's accompanying book follow this story Barrett wrote about a guy's experience with the occult. If you're at all interested, the first two tracks are a good indicator of what the record has to offer. Super DIY recording style. Super moody. Super super.

@doomsdaydanceparty7646 6 лет назад

@robertlewis5439 6 лет назад

Favorite "weird" album is Bee Thousand by Guided by Voices (I've liked weirder albums, but this one has transfixed me with astonishment for 24 years.) Favorite weird pedal is a no-name MIJ 80s-era garage sale flanger I got in high school after a "friend" trashed my other no-name garage sale flanger (it was the 80s and "MIJ" were dirty words.) [Next favorite is a BBE Two Timer analog delay that glitches amusingly on short delay times.]

Kevin McErlean Lick my Decals is in my opinion a better album than trout mask but it’s always overshadowed by TMR. I get it though TMR just has that something. From the cover to the music it carries weird weight. Anyway I love Safe as Milk as well, I like to bug friends by saying eeee-lec-trisss-a-teeeee at random times.

NOICE!!! I have NOS Gonkulator due to a mixup at the local shop right around the time it was bought out by a larger chain store. They found it in the back of the store room from when the ordered it years before, and I signed it out to try it out (because I love Incubus and freaked out when I saw the pedal, because it was discontinued even back then). When I brought it back a week later the owners of the store changed and they had never put it in inventory. Told me to just keep it. So I got a brand new Gonkulator about 10 years after it was discontinued. Still one of my favs.

Then there's The Black Rider, which I find unlistenable even as a huge Tom Waits fan. I find a perverse pleasure in Six Demon Bag from Man Man. I imagine it's what the inside of a demented carney's head must've sounded like in 1900.

Weirdest record? Delusion of the Fury of course! The booklet is priceless. The story behind the music and recording is priceless. Love the blog. Robert

Now that I see that record time includes classic albums and not just new ones.... I am sure you know this, but King Crimson's In the Court of the Crimson King is one of the best music ever written and recorded. The next two albums (at least) are not less interesting and great.

The Miku kinda became something to get your hands on. Google the price of that thing, you will be blown away.

i spent way too much on this pedal, then found a japanese children's toy that did the same thing for a couple of bucks 🤣

It probably would.

Joel Korte actually designed the Lofi Junky if I'm not mistaken.

@reynoldswrap36 6 лет назад

Can confirm. I worked at a pedal shop that dealt with both companies. I believe the story goes that Joel wanted to do more weird stuff, ZVEX was kind of holding him back on the circuits he could get through into production, and when his brother passed away, he decided to leave and try to make it on his own doing what he loves. The original Warped Vinyl is basically the Lofi Junky with a lot more control

Hey man, Great video. Awesome amp you have there! I play through a '67 Bassman 50w head with a 2×10 speaker cab that my father bought new. IMO you can't beat a Bassman and some pedals to achieve whatever sound you want. Keep up the good work. You're a genius! Joe

My favorite weird guitar effect is one preset on the late-90s DOD Tec4X. The effect is called "Pixelator", I believe. It mixes a bit crushing fuzz with a gonkulator ring modulator that acts as a synth step filter. It's similar to the Arpanoid but also adds in the bit crushing fuzz that makes the whole thing sound massive and synthy. If memory serves, DOD claimed that NIN used the effect or something like that.

@lucasbrunne5193 5 лет назад

Love the DOD Gonkulator sound, I'll have to look up one of the reissues. But how does one get a JHS modified Ds-1?

@jhspedals 5 лет назад

Get on our website and order from the mods tab. There's a couple options there. We don't do the new ones, but if you open it up and it's an older version, you can send it in and we'll mod it.

@loudtim265 6 лет назад

BTW, if you want to get weird anything by the Residents fits the bill. Honestly tho it can be a bit much unless you see them live, then it all kinda comes together. Bonus, they are originally from Shreveport La, right down the highway from me. A friend of mine, another north Louisiana guy, has some great weird stuff under the band name Olivia Tremor Control. But my favorite of his is The Sunshine Fix album “Age of the Sun”. He was involved in The Elephant Six recording project, most of which probably qualifies as weird. He passed a few years ago and is dearly missed. Mr Bill Doss.

@loudtim265 6 лет назад

My favorite Neil Young album is Trans. And nothing to do with guitar but Kraftwerk might be my desert island band...on the short list anyway.

GREAT VIDEO! My favorite weird album: Captain Vapour Athletes by Buffalo Daughter (1996). I saw them play at Tibetan Freedom back in '98 and fell in love! It's a really catchy odd record if you give it a listen. Rhythm-wise it has hints of Kid Koala if you're familiar with him. Just great vintage 90's weird stuff!
