The Doom Room: ILF Edition

[Bad-Samaritan]

This just came in tonight. Only had a bit to play around with it before practice, but fuck does it rip.

Guh.

Awesome drumming there ShaolinLambKiller. I could never play that fast or tight even if I took amphetamines. My drumming leans more towards stoner/doom tempos.

Thank you! Hell it's not even at my fastest, it's my average there. Tighteness is always an importance to me though haha Nothing wrong with stoner/doom I can room with that. And there are plenty of 'drummers' here that can't even do a good doom stomp.

SLK, I wish there was someone around here with similar drum chops. Then Mental Waste could actually be a real band that plays shows.

If I was there I'd be down for certain. hell I wish there were enough people here that would want to do this type of music so I can get back to focused totally on drums for a band... one I can play live with that is.

SLK...thats freakin fast drumming man...and tigh too!

Thank you very much!


SB... dat mother.

Dammit, let's all converge in one place and start Doomland. Or at have a week long I Love Doom jamming-recording-record listening-gear trade convention.

One of the manager dudes at work was drooling over Mr. Grumpy; "That dude from this Dunwich amps just builds the most awesome amps". I started laughing, "Yeah, Nick is a super cool guy, and Corey's new amp is beyond sick".

"How the hell do you know everyone? All you do is smoke weed and make bass distortions after work. You're not even on Facebook."

We just keep it real like that.
Too busy riffin to post our shit on the interwebs, crammed in between endless selfies of douche-bro abs and twerk videos.

This may be a boring/lame/obvious question, but do any of you bass players use a compressor? Recommendations?

I had a Fairfield accountant for a while and that was rad. Kinda dirty and not super over the top compression. The MXR bass compressor seems to be the standard answer though.

I can't right now. My rig is in storage and I live in a townhouse complex.
I probably spend more time posting here than all the social diners combined spend on the Internet.

I dont think he post here but check out Cyrus/Bongomania's compressor website:

One stop shopping for bass and compressor knowledge. I'd recommend his Smoothie based on the sheer fact that motherfucker knows what the word is when it comes to bass compression, but it looks like it's out of stock.

Ive needed one for years but i haven't taken the plunge yet. I hear thats another rabbit hole

Speaking of bass. WAY stoked to have had Dazz's first show on bass with flux. Next friday We're with Khemmis in Oly!



Beyond rad to add someone with D's musical sensibility to the mix. Totally an honor. We're going to focus on the set till friday and then hopefully some new writing goes into effect as we hammer out the rest of this album nonsense.

Hell yeah the tightness is paramount, as well as intensity. No reason not to hit like you mean it and make shit sound good just because it's a slow tempo. Terrasone drummer is waking up to that and it's making a huge difference.

RICKENBEARDER!!!

Aaaaggghhhh!!! I wish I could make it up to that Oly show. I'd love to see Darren playing with you guys. Not that I've ever seen you guys, but it seems like so much more of a crime to miss it now.

[misterstomach]

What I mean is, I'm already bummed I haven't seen you and it would suck anyway that I can't make it, but Darren being in the mix makes it like voltron is forming and I'm not there. I know you've always had a good collection of dudes, but having someone else I know in real life really brings it to another level.

Plus I wanna see that bus.
