TPB the Producer, Mike S on lead guitar

[des0free]

Sweet!  It's what I call a scorcher!  Agree with "punk vibe".  Agree that panned double-vocals is interesting and rather unique. I love the clarity of the ride cymbal.  Overall a great production!  And nice lead guitar by Mike!

I would also like to know how the rhythm guitar sound was created?  Guitar FX in DAW, or hardware unit, or real amp?

I looked back at the few notes I keep and it was 1 track..(which usually I do many guitar tracks and make a wall of sound) ...mono... on my Harley Benton PRS single coil lead pickup... played direct from the guitar to the Boss Me-25 guitar processor and into the BR1600 (no patches used here)...
the song musically was very minimalist...more like a 3 piece band. 
I'm not big on tweaking (although I am getting more so)... I pretty much plug in and use one of the 4 or 5 presets that I have come to like alot and play.  Everything in my "writing" music comes from a particular sound that I like and then a pattern that I like...but sometimes I am guilty of using similar ones too often...I am working on not doing that.
thanks for asking.
the boss Me-25 is a low price 3 foot switches and a volume/wah pedal multi effects unit... I think I paid only around 150 for it...it's easy, has a looper (which I used to use but not much anymore because the Digitech Trio is so much better for this)

Ahhh, the Klingon battle cry. Well done gents.
Rock on!

disturbingly cool

This turned out very cool Steve/Tim. What I love about the track is the raucous energy. The guitars/bass and drums are just wild. Its like some dogs just been let off the leash and going crazy. Some great lyrics and vocals. This would accompany a surreal war movie very well, something like Apocalypse Now! Thanks for letting me try to add to the sonic assault Steve!

Mike..my 16 year old son heard one of your instrumentals...he said it sounded like me..... I laughed because I could only hope...this is the same child at 6 said I sang better than Steve Perry...lol... what did blow me away though is my snare work....thanks Tim and Mike

Dont know how I missed this,
Superb Stephen, really good, take a bow..... Alex

You did a great job on this one Mike, as did your production Tim. Great, hilarious song from Stephen of course.
