Overrated mate. They nicked the idea, and sound from another band I just can't remember who. The general opininon of them changed when everyone's Dad started liking them.

Under ground rock scene in the UK

I am very proud to have sat outside the gates of that cement works on a school trip to that area. It's every bit as a shiny, and beautiful as it seems, but as my geography teacher hammered into me, it's a hundred percent essential to the local economy, as the nearest villages (Castleton, and Hope), have around 600 residents each.

It's a beautiful area though, the English peak district, it's between Sheffield, and Manchester, and it's inceibly picturesque in parts, and not so in others (ie the cement factory).

While you're at it. Any idea what the intro song is for all these reading videos.

Sounds like divorcing is a lot trickier than I thought before joining equipboard.

You could buy a 3 bedroom in a nice middle class neighbourhood for that here. ($300k=£200k)

Another reason why you should come over here. If 50k won't buy you a house in a America albeit cheap or not, prices must be huge.

Bloody hell, you seem to like these a lot Jim. This song actually remind me of "Running Wild" by Drenge a bit.

I did not expect Jim of all people to say LOL. You get the piss taken for using it as a THIRTEEN year old.

All this talk of women are getting to your head, do you need to go for a lie down?

Most UNDERrated bands.

Clutch. That'll be my offering

Ok, the weather is a MASSIVE generalisation, as is the coffee.

Yeah the monarchy is stupid, but it fuels our economy, image, and tourist industry, and without it we'd be stuffed.

I don't want this to get creepy, but you're kind of right she is alright, as is the singer from chvrches, another fairly good undergroundish English group. If everybody on equipboard bigged up your stuff you might just get some popularity, and then... You have a 12 year difference though. England does sound a lot better than over the pond, I wouldn't blame you for moving here.

Yeah sorry, I only realised after I posted it. Also you can't use tone of voice across the internet so, it would of come across differently to how I said it...

Parallel phasing

Of course I like celestion. Everyone likes celestion

The real question is, can I afford celestion.

The answer is no, I don't think.

10yover 10 years ago

I will probably buy some sort of 2 x 12 if I ever get going.

Neither Slaves, or wolf alice are underground anymore.

Slaves are my favourite punk band, but they need a little more to them if they really want to get into my faves. I do love the rawness of it though, the diversity, and of course the lyrical genius. Where's your car Debbie anyone?

Any Pianists Here?

I really respect Jordan Rudess. He's incredibly skilled, at any genre. Obviously he's from dream theater, but his solo stuff, has some tracks where it's just piano, which are pretty good.

35 Syndrome

That's what I thought. I'll say 36 for your sake, with a few exceptions.

By zero, you should have seen my Mum. It was a combination of the intensity of it all, and Billy's cocked-wah, nasality that did it though.

There is multiple songs called Mess Around.

It's still £50k. That's twice the average English income.

Nice. It takes a bit of time to heat up, but after twenty it sings. For practice it rocks, but if, and when my band start doing gigs, I'll need to ask around, because fifteen watts won't cut the mustard.

How's the son.

Making it on equipboard

Am I right in thinking that you've basically climbed to the highest rung on the forums once you've got an affectionate EB pet name. I'm talking Narcy, Jim, Nicko.

I love a bit of Herbie Hancock. He's just great.

Song meanings

New one for you. Drenge's nothing. I'm not 100 percent sure, but I have some ideas.

Check out Brad's page, he's got some weird sh*t going on; POG2, mothership, phase 100, tremvelope, rainbow machine. The dirt will be his mastotron.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1aWX80Da9s. I think this is what he was referring to. Just sounds like distortion, and a tiny bit of some sort of phase, or chorus. I could be wrong.

Nah we haven't, sorry. It was "Mess Around", not "Aberdeen".

We've already had this on a thread I think, somewhere I'll try and find it.

Parallel phasing

True, but if I wanted say a slow phase, and a fast phase, both on my signal, but without one phaser, phasing the other what would I do.

Fender Champion 100

Well it's a modeller. Need I say more.

Okay well it's decent, for a modeller, better than line 6 anyway. Save up and get a cheap tube amp, a vox ac4 will sound better then that. I guess if you're looking for an all in one deal, with built in effects, and the like go for it, but otherwise don't.

Do you actually mean 75k! You could buy a house for that. If you have a sparer 75k to spend on a guitar, then I question what you're doing with your life, and why your such a sod that you'd keep it to yourself.
