Okay, I believe it! Very 70s vibe. Nice groove. What rig are you playing through? Is this your band?

I don't mean this in a bad way - It has a Spinal Tap tone about it. Vintage LP + Vintage Marshall. As Beer$ said - 70's vibe.

 

[Securb]

I dig it

 

[Demanic]

Definitely a vintagey sort of tone. But it reminds me more of early Soundgarden with Kim Thayle.
I'm just glad to see someone posting some sound.

I assume that was you, Stephen, what was the guitar/pickup/amp (and/or model, if such was used)?

I bet I could make that with a Rat...

I could get it with my Spidervalve. Almost early Rush.

Sounds pretty good, though the vocals sound far away. I didn't get a 70's feeling from it, other than maybe the keyboards. Guitars sound good. If the drummer were tighter it could be pretty solid.

Wow Beau, tighter?

You don't hear the little speed-up-drag thing going on in the hi-hat/snare? Just calling it on what I honestly heard. Just sounded like the drum part was pushing/pulling on the tempo.

I hear it. Considering he’s not releasing it professionally I didn’t want to nitpick.

Yes, this is my band.

Parker Fly Mojo
Line 6 Helix direct to the recorder.
All but vox and lead recorded live in the “studio”.

Little. Evidently not enough for me to really notice.

Mysto 70s metal jam for JC, nice.

Models:
Centaur OD—>808 tube Screamer—>Xotic EP Boost—>Cartographer amp w/Uberkab V30 4x12 cab w/409 Dynamic mic. Chamber reverb.

The cartographer model is based on a heavily modded Traynor owned by one of the L6 programmers (Ben Adrian Cartographer). He named the amp after his band. I replace the Marshall models in nearly all of my “Marshall” presets with this one. I find it versatile and responsive.

One question -were these songs written by the drummer? the way the cadence on the vocal phrasings are -the downbeat nature - these songs sound like the drum beats and vocals came first in the songwriting process.

Just curious

 

[LesStrat]

Yes, most of the songs were written by the drummer. However, I tend to modify the vocals to fit me more. But some of these songs aren’t really “vocal driven.” Like this one.

Interesting observation: he is not a multi instrumentalist but ho plays drums. He’s a drummer who is a multi instrumentalist.

Good catch.
