    Wes Hauch/Aaron Marshall "secret setup"

    If you put more than like 2 minutes into thinking about this then I got something to tell you, whatever it is isn't whats keeping you from being able to play that lick you can't get down.

    Vik Duality 8 string run *CLOSED RUN*

    I'll be honest maybe a smidge sad because it was a fantastic guitar, but the guitar replacing it is far more enjoyable for me. I didn't have much attachment to that Vik, it was gorgeous but definitely less hours than all of my other guitars. It's definitely getting attention, but in a world...

    Vik Duality 8 string run *CLOSED RUN*

    I just traded this a couple weeks ago, had a good laugh showing it to my guitar buddy :lol: I was told mine was going to "the pile", for context :rofl:

    Conan Tuning

    I feel like how fussy ERG players can be about needing a bass string to hold tune in C0, and how little the Doom LP playing guitarists give a shit is hilarious :lol:

    Wintersun's Groundhog's Day Thread

    I missed the last like 50 pages of developments, would you mind giving me a recap of everything since then in explicit detail?

    Rabea signs with EBMM

    Reread my last comment, I'm just saying your question is dishonest and you're not really seeking any answers because all of the answers don't satisfy you. Might be more productive to email EBMM and ask them instead of the people who didn't cut him the deal :lol: Just saying he's shit is...

    Rabea signs with EBMM

    You didn't really engage in an active debate, you just made a very inflammatory statement. Walking past someone who achieved something and going "Good for him, but what did he do to deserve that?" carries connotations that you're willfully ignoring, while everyone else picked up. You're just...

    Rabea signs with EBMM

    It's absolutely wild to me that someone can be so one track minded about topics like these. It's a subjective art form, in a realm where everyone and their mothers has their own tastes. "What has he offered to music" is a brain crushing question that basically leads to the same mental illness...

    Official Daemoness Guitars Thread

    It's an if in the first place, I've already written it off :shrug: If he starts building again, and if my build is held to a pricing sheet significantly higher than what I was led to expect when I first joined the wait, I'll ask to have the deposit returned and back out. I'm not here holding...

    Official Daemoness Guitars Thread

    If he comes back with a massive price hike and doesn't honor a semblance of the original pricing expected I will happily take my deposit back and wish him the best of luck. No offense but you don't get to ride on people's deposits and benefit at time of final sale after having said customer wait...

    Periphery Megathread: Everything Periphery

    I dig it well enough, it doesn't rank in my top 3 in the discography but it's definitely a fun listen. I'm tied for Wax Wings/Wildfire as favorites on the actual record, and in a pretty roundabout way it reminds me more of P1 than anything else. It's less predictable than P3 - 4, and the...

    Aristides Tone

    I think each of those demos sound drastically different, that being said I'm not the most picky tone eater in the world so I'm probably not the best judge for this. In theory nothing should be different in recorded tone between 2 guitars with the same pickups and features (Scale length, string...

    Tim Henson(Polyphia) shows off his studio

    I think people are injecting way too many variables to judge any artist's relative success. It's all about: A) Musical Expression B) Making money They're doing both of these things, and on the topic of making money, quantifying where the faceless fan exists be it a white collar employee paying...

    Do phones take up too much of our lives?

    The phone itself isn't the problem, it's the amount of productive time you get out of a session. It's genuinely the easiest it's ever been to learn, how effectively one does that is the questionable part. When your first choice is to go to youtube and search up a 5 step how to video rife with...

    It's depressing

    I am incredibly jealous, I would love to see them live haha. This is self defeating, it doesn't even take that much energy or effort to just check out a few new releases every now and then. It's either the nostalgia or the difficulty of finding something great, never mind this bullshit...

    It's depressing

    This is literally the only acceptable answer, I'm consistently blown away by new talent and the sounds I hear but I have lots of friends who indulge in metal and try new music on a regular basis. Just don't get into that obsessive loop of overindulging in like 10 of your favorite bands and...

    New Metallica: Screaming Suicide

    Infinitely better than Lux, it seems nonsensical to expect game changing songs from Metallica in this moment in their career, they will proceed to make music because they are able to. Nevermind people shitting on Death Magnetic is wild to see in lieu of these songs, I have pretty fond memories...

    Periphery Megathread: Everything Periphery

    You were mentioning intentionality behind their writing, I'm actually in agreement with you. And I find that the comments I see focusing on reuse of motifs and riffs in such minor ways when they're the most independent they'll ever be are as said, bizarre.

    Periphery Megathread: Everything Periphery

    Isn't it a little more than bizarre to care at this point? They self publish so as weird as it might be for others to make the realization they're probably writing music with less outside interference than ever. I don't really find most people have interesting commentary on music and can't help...
