He basically had to design his gear around the tuning - low 2 strings are .100 and .085 bass strings, and the guitar has a 27.5" baritone scale. It sounds loving brutal though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_cw2DjcuW8

There's a point where you're just paying baritone guitar, then there's a point where you're just playing bass, then there's a point where you have to switch to oscillators and snyths to put out sub-bass frequencies you can't hear

Wow that is astonishingly corny I would be interested in hearing how low someone can possibly get a standard guitar before it just doesn’t work anymore. Especially if it’s some nasty noise sludge drone instead of djent.

Lol if you aren't putting a p90 on a cell tower guy wire and hitting it with a hammer/violin bow edit: can't find it but there's a photo of what I assume is a noise artist's SG that has been rigged with a single 3/4" cable. Those djent dorks also have similar "EMG mounted to a stick with one fret" things Ingmar terdman fucked around with this message at 18:15 on May 20, 2020 |

Snowy posted:Wow that is astonishingly corny This is the post where I get angry that I posted a wildly different metal subgenre and it isn't well-received  Tune in next week when I give an example of "epic fuzz/distortion" by posting a Hives song On-topic though I guess it depends what you mean by "doesn't work," you could probably downtune to below bass levels and still get a fairly consistent open-string note but I dunno how well fretting actual notes would work. Then again you could probably put together a serviceable drone band that only played open notes so who knows!

i just shared Omega Massif's cover of "Don't Bring Me Flowers" by Godflesh in the GBS covers thread and thought you folks might enjoy; it gets pretty cool at four minutes and twenty seconds for some reason. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ei7QfFkEhE

Snowy posted:Wow that is astonishingly corny Bob Log III tunes his low string pretty low. the intro on the first video is the easiest example I could find. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5BmKsCJX7I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NbNfPvSc2k I chose a live video as its the best way to experience Mr. Log. Wes Borland uses a Bass G string on his E/B string position. I kinda wish Wes was in a stoner band, he's an incredible riff machine. I am an unashamed Limp Bizkit fan for this reason alone. hes also a loving awesome dude and played my friends wedding (bride and groom are huge fans) and I believe he is S/D/S adjacent because hes riffy and fuzzy as heck. e: Djent is poo poo. math metal is poo poo.

Wes waited a minute, then said, "i loving hate that guy. i'll have some Big Cheez-Its, man" and sat down and chilled for a few. boss said he was a super nice dude.

Has anyone here listened to Church of The Cosmic Skull? they don't really fit in with stoner/doom/sludge but they play at a lot of stoner festivals. I like to think they are like, the anti-doom side of metal. Hope metal if you will.

I like to think they are like, the anti-doom side of metal. Hope metal if you will. I dig their track on that Wall Redux album (they cover "The Trial") that MER released. I've listened to their latest LP a few times. They remind me of Polyphonic Spree if they had more teeth and little less hippy.

But at the same time I get it, like, they are the Rush/David Bowie/Boston style classic metal brought to new life in the modern era in the way that electric wizard brought black sabbath back to life.
