MONSTROUS new song

Seymour Duncan Customer Support
My band just finished demoing this bowel-unplugger of a ditty. If giant fuzz tones are your bag, this should satisfy.

I humbly submit to you: Tracks of the Cloven Hoof.

Comments, suggestions, praise, critiques, and all other forms of validation are welcome. :)
 
Re: MONSTROUS new song

Man, I've been really digging your stuff - probably some of the most original sounding band I've heard in a while. I can hear influences here and there, but you really have your own sound.


Sounds like DFH2 to me? I dig the very raw overall sound of it!
 
Re: MONSTROUS new song

Thank you, man! That's some high praise. It's really nice to know that our stuff comes off as original because I always feel like we wear our influences on our sleeves... you wouldn't believe the amount of stuff I rip off of bands I like. :)

And yes, you'd be right about the drums - DFHS (Good ear). Our drummer has a nice little V-drum kit so when we make our little demos it's actually his performance, but I'm not stuck with the task of mic'ing live drums (which I hate to do).
 
Re: MONSTROUS new song

awesome song man. i hope your search for a singer is going well, thats all i can really hear thats missing. keep up the good work
 
Re: MONSTROUS new song

Thank you guys - I'm especially happy with this one because the other guitar player in my band came over yesterday and we tracked this one together. The other two I tracked entirely by myself, which I'm very comfortable with.

I'm very happy about being able to be productive writing/recording with another person.

We're supposed to be auditioning one or two people this week or next weekend. We'll see how that goes. You guys would be amazed at the "quality" of applicants we've heard from so far... like, week 1 American Idol bad.
 
Re: MONSTROUS new song

I like it. :bigok: What were you using to get the guitar tones?

Guitar tones are 100% PODxt.

When we go in to record a real record, we'll mic everything up and do it full-scale, but again for these demos it's all about efficiency and flexibility.
 
Re: MONSTROUS new song

I like it. Good overall sound with the band and, I, too, hear many influences while realizing you're your own sound. Keep it up and have fun.

Very nice dude - that's the way to do it!


If you ever want your stuff mixed, don't hesitate to ask - I'd love to do some stuff for you guys.

After hearing your work on your own stuff, that's an offer I may just take you up on. You've got the ear, man.

I was thinking that, it has the tightness and cleanliness of a POD track. So are the drums programmed or triggered?
 
Re: MONSTROUS new song

That's awesome ,and the "second guitar" that pops in a while in the very first riff is amazing!
Very great work ,and a great arrngemend.The small "solo" is amazing too.less notes with lot's of power!
I Love ITTTTT!

They're triggered drums tracked by our drummer on his V-drum kit. He might have looped something here or there, but I wasn't present when he made the tracks so I don't know for sure.
 
Re: MONSTROUS new song
