    4x12 Cab Shootout

    HC amp forums chiming in on this thread - http://acapella.harmony-central.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=994655 Be prepared for some SERIOUS anti-Krank sentiment though! ;) :hotjump:

    4x12 Cab Shootout

    Wow, to me the Mesa oversized sounded the best of the lot in these clips. The smaller cabinet just sounded buzzy and harsh. It's more of a chainsaw type sound whereas the oversized cab seemed to have a bit more girth behind it. The Krank cab on the other hand, blows.

    Krank!

    Neat! Hey Andy, that's the first time I've heard a Krank Revolution sound like that. It seems when you turn up the midrange on those amps though, they get a little nasty sounding. When you scoop it out like you did, they sound like a weaker TSL. Maybe it's just the mp3 though.... Me personally...

    Guitar Tone MP3s (Need Opinions)

    I find it hard to believe that those are two different amps. They sound virtually identical with the 2nd having a slight midrange boost. They sound to me like they're the same amp, but you cranked up the volume on the 2nd cut. I'd be shocked if they're two different amps that you managed to...

    So let's say I happened to find a copy of Still Day/Patterns 2 on LP....

    You'd be surprised my friend. I saw an unopened LP of Blackwater Park (standard issue) go for $125 on Ebay recently. And FWIW, let's hear you write a couple better songs....?

    Tell me more. What do the covers look like? Do you have pictures that I could use to compare?

    I found more than one copy, so I bought them all. I'm keeping one of course! ;)

    I didn't mean shrink wrapped, I meant that plastic wrap that comes on all the LPs at the music store I found it in.

    Mars Volta inbetween the sets at the London gig

    I've been hearing a lot of good stuff about the Mars Volta, but it's usually from people I know who are into that 80's throwback prog/powermetal kinda sound. Does the Mars Volta sound anything like that? How's their singer? Is he another one of those castrati sopranos that shreiks like the...

    .... in mint condition, still shrink wrapped, never been played. How much would this go for on Ebay you think?

    Opeth in the mainstream

    LMAO!!!!! If it weren't for rape, Tori Anus would have no career. Her cover of Raining Blood made me laugh it was so rediculous.

    Growling vs. Grunting

    Grunting = gay. Like that guy from Dying Fetus. The first time I heard them, I fell out of my chair laughing. The first time I heard Demon of the Fall though, :OMG: DAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYMN!!!!!!!!!!!!! Growling > Grunting.

    Mikael's strings

    Hey now, don't be raggin' on the Wild Child!!!!!! I listen to CoB too, but I can at least hear the difference between different types of guitar strings. I bet Alexi Laiho can too.... :p

    Mikael's strings

    I would completely disagree with this as well. To me at least there is a MUCH more noticable difference between say a set of D'Addario .010 gauge strings and a set of DR .010's than there is between say a set of a DR .009's and DR .010's.
