This is great!!! I love it! That guitar sound is fantastic. How did you do it Geir? Synth is cool too. And, of course, the vocals are excellent. Very catchy song. It will be in my head all day.

Well FX is from my zoom 9030 a patch with some "bending" kinda effect. added a stereo delay from a modded for-nylon on the mbr.

The technique I used playing this is: I muted the strings with my left hand and used a bottleneck to play the quirky notes by "hammering" it on the strings.

If anybody can do "mad as a box of frogs" (other than the master Henwrench) it has to be ORH and Geir!!!!!  Lovely mood here, lovely sound, crazy baby, crazy.  It sounds even more dream-like (nightmare?) than the original.  Deep, crazy, cool.  I feel all weird just listening, its like its Psychoactive, psychotropic.  Kinda like Pink Floyd at their out-there best, but better.

This is fantastic! You guys managed to get the great late 80's/early 90's hi-tech sound. Excellent levels.

The vocal work has a mild dissonance that is oh so appealing to me. Mindblowing stuff, really!

Jim, your monetary investment in the Juno has been fully repaid with this one. I'm impressed with your ability to control that monster.

Geir, the vocal additions and insane guitar really filled this tune out - A little sprinkle of Geir Magic makes everything taste better!  :D

Sweeeeeeeeet!!!

    Absolutely mind-blowingly incredible. I can't believe how good this is. Every single note, noise and nuance is making me feel as though I've taken some MDMA and won the lottery and fallen down the stairs at the same time. Just sublime. Awesome. Frogs. Box of. Love you both. xxx

But I swear, I used to absolutely excel at being young and stupid.
