Moving today and everything has already gone balls to the wall wrong as it can get.
I'm now having my first coffee and trying hard not to give a fuck when all I want to do is throw cars at mother fuckers.

That's no fun dude. Moving always sucks, moving under duress doubly so.

The past three years are the first time I haven't moved annually when my lease ended. of course I bought a house so there's no more lease and I own the damn place but I know that feel. moving is a royal pain in the ass. especially if you hoard gear. woof.

After years of fumbling and bumbling I have some kind of rig/chain together. Have not re-assembled the board but here is the basic setup.

Guitar -> FuzzThrone -> Quasar Generator (univibe mod), MF104M -> SpaceUnit (reverb) -> DA150 -> Emperors

Actually we aren't under the duress of a lease end this time, our builder finally finished (term loosely bandied about, here. Still rectifications to be done) our home, so we are moving into it this week. Spent our first night in it last night and it was such a good feeling.
Yesterday sucked just because we found a few issues with the house, nobody can communicate or organise themselves and traffic was just fucked. But we got there.
Today I've gotta go back and do our bond clean on the old place, which I'm look forward to like a vasectomy with a rusty crowbar, but it's the last time I'll have to do it, so fuck, whatever.

On the gear hoarding front, I might throw up some pics of all my shit in various boxes around the place on IG later, just to share the frustration of finally having all your shit in one place, but not being able to use it because you have to unpack a table to eat off of first.

Nick, that's rad man!
Did you start a thread about the Quasar in your Dunwich Sub Forum?
I am very keen to know more.
I think I got bits and pieces from IG but I have to know the full story of its a vibe related machine.

Pope...moving house sucks...i never look forward to the packing up...but I do like the unpacking! Hope it all goes well...and congrats on the new place!

Nick...that set up looks sick man. That space unit is ridiculous

Quasar is a univibe with some small adjustments. Its got most of the original feel but nice things like the ability to have more than unity output, intenser notches via some feedback

Thanks, dudes.

We'd love to get back up to Canada in the next 6 months. Definitely Vancouver, but Victoria is tough cause of the ferry expense. I'd love to do it though. I like the island a lot.

We'd really love to tour further east and get to Georgia. And all around there. There's a few pieces of the puzzle that need to fall in place before we figure out when that's going to happen, but the sooner the better.

I'm so stoked about this tour in general, but particularly excited for the Denver show with Khemmis. It's going to rule. If things work out, as a bonus my brother might even be able to come to that show, which would rule. We're pretty close and he's never gotten to see any of my bands.

On the road now. First show tomorrow.

this is the shit that Aussie doom bro's miss out on...Doom Room band tours and double tours...!

Yeah, the ferry was really the key to the hopeless part hahaha. I can do a trip to the mainland to see you play, no sweat! So glad i moved, anyway, the island rules.

can't believe it...Doomed & Stoned did a review on our album!!

Any of you guys use a treble booster? I've been thinking about getting something like the Red Rooster or Naga Viper for years but I think I'll finally do it. I'm running into a reasonably crunchy yet dynamic Electric non-master head and it would be great if it also boosted my Sonic Titan or Meathead Deluxe into more saturation.

When I was younger I thought treble boosters were dumb. I mean, if you need your treble boosted just turn it up on your amp, ya know? (Just like the first time I saw a delay pedal in a catalog... I thought it delayed the signal once, not an echo or repeats. I thought that DOD Supra Distortion into a Peavey Rage was the best tone ever.) I still don't really understand them but I know my original thoughts about them are wrong. I'd like to try one sometime just to see but I've been pretty happy with my tone the past few years and never bothered with it. The Naga Viper is a treble booster of sorts isn't it?

I finally have something music related to post about. I've jammed a few times with a new drummer now and we knocked out a rough draft of a song this week. It was more of a team building exercise than anything else, we just tried to write something as quickly as possible, with room to refine, add transitions, additional parts or whatever later. This is the product of about a half hour to an hour of writing and practicing it through a few times. Recorded on my phone, just drums and bass.

Treble Boosters in front of FFs are usually pretty good, esp very bassy ones which I feel are bit sluggish to pick attack. A solid treble booster is something that everyone should have floating around, its a great weapon. I was bored and drafted up a "mojo" version on my pcb/scheme maker the other day.

I think the name throws everyone off. All of those Queen and early Sabbath albums are all treble boosters. The Naga Viper is definitely a treble booster and I was strongly considering one but I went with the D*A*M Red Rooster since I've been using the Meathead Deluxe and Sonic Titan for a dozen or so years while everything else has changed. Hopefully it'll work out.
