    AFI's Sing The Sorrow means a lot to me.
    Here are the lyrics:
    I'll lay me down tonight
    Much further down
    Swim in the calm tonight
    This art does drown
    What follows me as the whitest lace of light, just begs to be imbrued
    What follows will swallow whole
    What follows has led me to this place where I belong, with all erased
    All insects sing tonight
    The coldest sound
    I'd send God's grace tonight
    Could it be found
    What follows me as the whitest lace of light, just begs to be imbrued
    What follows will swallow whole
    What follows has led me to this place where I belong, with all erased
    I'll lay me down tonight
    Much further down
    Watch stars go out tonight
    On sinking ground
    I'll lay me down
    What follows me as the whitest lace of light, just begs to be imbrued
    What follows will swallow whole
    What follows has led me to this place where I belong, with all erased
    What follows will swallow whole

  • @hafcat
    @hafcat 2 роки тому +2

    All these are so incredible. How do you get that guitar tone? Jade had such a unique tone for this album and you’ve captured its essence so well. If I remember right, their producer said it was a mix of a dual rectifier and modded plexi with a 4 mic setup, and I always found that so interesting.

    • @toddbarriage
      @toddbarriage  2 роки тому

      The chain was basically Les Paul Studio (Classic 57 bridge pickup) > Bias Amp 2 Plexi (I think it’s literally called modded Plexi) with the gain stages tweaked around a bit to make sure it broke up just right. Those changed a little each song, but it was always the same Plexi with the gain and EQs all around 6. I hate Mesa amps so I blended that with an identical Plexi emulation, just with the gain bumped up so it “did the Plexi thing” without sounding like donkey ass. SM57 and Roger 121 mic models, both where the dust cap meets the cone. It’s wild to me that I was able to pull this off entirely with plugins, like the drums were real and some of the cleans were real amps, but 98% of the guitar and 100% of the bass was all plugins!
