It's basically what it says in the first post. You find a batch of songs you like by different bands and stick 'em together in either an www.8tracks.com or YouTube playlist. Then when it's your turn, you post it.

It's just some fun. Talking about people's tastes and possibly spreading attention to bands you think deserve it.

I like 8tracks more myself because it's more reliable and the quality of the recordings is as good as you upload them. You're not relying on what others have uploaded. It takes more time though, and some people have had troubles uploading (not me) so they started going with YouTube playlists which is fine obviously.

I know that feel. It's so frustrating. Someone at my school today told me if we let "homosexuals" marry, then people are going to start marrying their pets. He just couldn't grasp why that was the dumbest fucking shit.

Yes it has. I hate debating right wingers like that though, because none of their points make sense in the first place; too stupid to refute, if you will.

I was gonna send you a FR, but I didn't know whether or not we were already officially e-pals or not, then I got sidetracked and forgot. >_<

Were you ever able to make it to Occupy Columbus (I think that was it)? My town's Occupy is going to be picketing out district's congressman's visit here in a couple days, I might go.

Sweet. Let me know when you do. I'll gladly take a listen.

Thanks for the friend request. I dig your bands stuff. I'm currently in the studio recording my new material. when it gets done, I'll send it your way. Keep on rocking. Blow some speakers! -KP.

It's likely the distortion is a Pro Co Turbo Rat, as that was Tad Doyle's favorite distortion pedal. The guitar sound on Sliver is very Rat-ish. I'm relatively certain that there weren't any other pedals, however if there were, it would be an Ibanez Chorus. I think the digital one. Not entirely sure.

Thanks for that mate, forgot i'd even asked about that! Been thinking of getting that pedal for a while as i've heard good things about it, might have to be my next investment! Cheers.

I also have a Boss DS-1 and I prefer it by miles. The Grunge has waaay too much gain even when you turn the gain all the way down. That may partly be my amp's fault though (22W Vox), since it's less of an issue with big amps. That's my only major complaint though, the tone is pretty adjustable. I'd say give it a shot at a music shop - it seems to be a hit/miss piece of equipment so it may very well work for you - but definitely also give the DS-1 a try.

fucking nice sound to your band dude... has a melvins feel to it, just not as heavey
