Kyle seems like a cool dude, and I love his philosophies about rock. Doesn't matter what you have, just turn the knobs until it sounds the best that it can.
He is, but his mom and nana are also very cool. What a weird thing for me to say except that I met them at a show in Corpus ! Dudes NANA at a show! That’s as metal as metal gets!!!
Man, I miss this kind of talk when I was in garage bands back in the mid 90s in high * school that’s all we cared about was our gear in our rigs then when we didn’t get famous and started having families and jobs it all went away but so much fun to listen to.
It's kinda refreshing to see a more simple rig, especially as far as a pedal board goes. As a person who is newer to getting a good rig setup, seeing a rig like Mike Sullivan from Russian Circles or something like that can be super overwhelming.
+Corey Corey i like how he has the microphone in his hand, swinging it to and fro, but the audio is from the lav mics they're wearing. and guitar tech dave didn't get one. 'what kind of guitar is that? a les paul? natural finish?cool. strings, ten set? elevens? yeah man? cool. you like em? yeah they are pretty great. orange amps? this is a new one-' YUP.
Stephen Shelnutt they could be. but they were clearly the ones used primarily for audio at least in post. it's just fun to watch that handheld mic flail around doing nothing at all.
Kyle's rig looks awesome. The novelty of the Big Crunch is cool, but I'm curious how it sounds. Also got stoked for the Electra guitars. The old ones were super cool, I'm excited that they're up and running again.
What is this... bass... Oh is that the guy who stands by me on stage with the weird looking guitar? I didn't know that guy was even part of the band!... Do they even plug into anything?
Actually panning over the cab setup when they are talking about the amps would have been nice, I mean they were talking about the 4 12 / 2 12 setup, etc so I am guessing he was saying they have those in combination vs a full stack but you couldn't see more than the very top of one cab.
If you had a 1980 Marshall JMP 2204 with a V30 4x12. Would you run a Bogner Red or Metal Muff (Like the older rig rundown vid)? or what other pedal? I've tried boosting and it sounds great just not saturated enough for Age or Winters tone.
+7hotfuzz7 honestly, I would do something like an MXR Distortion+ or a DOD 250 into that amp setup(sweet rig, by the way)- there's is really not THAT gainy of a sound. When you get the Distortion+ up abit it starts to get this woollyness to it; not outright fuzz, like if you were gonna play Acid King type stuff(another GREAT band), but it's just that slightly-loose cranked 70s sound that kicks ass. Hope this helps.
Interviewer. slow down. let the subject talk. don't feel like you need to fill up the air, or acknowledge EVERYTHING. Ask questions that will open the conversation. Also, Focus Puller (er: single camera person) Pull focus man!!! Otherwise great rundown. thanks for all the hard work.
I had to take the Super Distortion out of my 2008 Explorer because it was too warm and mid rangy in the bridge. I replaced it with a Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates and love it!
I got that vibe too. Wans't really interested in hearing what the first guy, J.D.?, had to say, seemed like he was trippin' a bit on something, and then warmed up to the second huy, even though he raced through everything... But what do you expect from a guy who describes the signal chain as coming OUT of the amp...
l've just discovered this band! They are great! I cant believe what i've been missing! l just love how the singer is so reticent and the blond guy more exuberant lol. What albums do you recommend?
Joaquin Odriozola I love all their albums but I gotta say Warp Riders is my personal fave. I'd recommend Lawless lands and Tres Brujas from that album, they got a good groove to 'em if you're into that.
"Can I finish your sentence for ya?" Jesus man... Let the man SPEAK.. don't want to sound like a jerk but the interview is being compromised by tedious interruptions. Im glad for this but it could be better. I love this band and it's a good look at the Sword rig!
I'M HYPERACTIVE! I'M GOING TO BUTT IN, NOT LISTEN,LOOK LEFT/RIGHT/LEFT'/RIGHT AND GET IN THE WAY. Awful hosting. The artists were laid back and there was no adapting to them at all.
I had that blue hush pedal it blows, bought it because I that it was noise gate and heard Dime used one ain't good at all the rackmount Hush super c is way better. The Black LP copy Neck heal curve looks like Chapman guitars ML 2.
