ZVEX Fuzz Factory

Fuzz Effects Pedals

At 12:52 in this episode of Song Exploder, Dan Wilson recounts the writing of "Closing Time" and says:

Z.Vex Effects is based in Minneapolis and they had this new invention called a Fuzz Factory, which is this crazy sounding distortion box that makes a guitar sound like its this giant zipper being zipped. Very strange sounding. And Zach at Z.Vex Effects brought that Fuzz Factory to a party at my house and it was labelled number 5, so it was like the fifth one that they built and I use it on everything. It was that buzzy sound struck me as so insane. I loved it. And that's the sound of that solo in "Closing Time."
