'Mazing pics. Sounds like a great time. Quite cool to have a glimpse at your complete setup these days, too.

Can't wait to hear the recordings.

Epic journal with much anticipation!

Presenting coveting your fuzzies tracked to saturated tape and overall experience. Really looking forward to this monstrous disaster.

Fucking awesome pics, must've been fun as shit.

Fairly trainspotty geek-out moment here, but this Marshall cab under the blonde Fender:

► Show Spoiler

was used for clean tones by Ian Williams on Don Caballero's 2000 album "American Don" in Studio A... pics of those sessions are generally how I picture EA, so it's cool to see the same rugs and cabs 12 years on

RESULTS!

http://soundcloud.com/dwarfcraft/nevercats-unmastered

NOTES:
0:00 Electronics and first pass of guitar were indeed recorded to tape at Electrical Audio. Rhythm track and ocatve jumping synth were done in reason, played back via itunes. bass bomb/lazer sounds are Little Phatty

0:28 Vocals were done back in Eau Claire, with a Rhode thing, I think. I have since recorded them again.

1:38 Dwarfcraft Pitch Grinder rears its ugly head. I did one pass of these in Electrical, but what you're hearing is all Schecter 12 string through the PG back in EC. Twin reverb, and Traynor bassmaster with a looper in front of each amp for maximum un-sync.

3:49 TELIGULA into Twin reverb. Also from Eau Claire. Bass was re-done in Eau Claire, I believe.

4:13 DRUMS from Electrical

4:46 all Eau Claire session vocals, bass, guitars. my guitars are Teligula through Eau Claire Thunder and Surrender Dorothy.

5:59 again, playing teligula through my pedals and a looper in front of a twin and a bassmaster for Un-sync bliss. Synth blast is Moog Minitaur

7:35 That new sound is Jaime on bass through a Dwarfcraft Zhago. Into this god awful peavey TNT and a silvertone guitar amp.

8:26 I made a special pedal whose only function is to cut the signal to both amps at the same time.

I like the cool space sounds. Seriously, that's a cool track and the production notes are fun and informative sir. I shared the post with my bandmate.

Sounds sweet aen. Really liked the vocals and great build up of tension throughout.

FANKS!
Looks like this track just got us a gig at the 7th st entry in Minneapolis. (which is a very "important" club)
