    Its hard to imagine a three piece, with no vocals being so compelling. Then you realise where the bassist is hiding. God lord, busy man. Such great sounds/tunes/songwriting/playing. I keep coming back. I hope to see you guys live one day.

      @sonicseducer69 6 років тому

      It's great except it falls short on one part in the last song. There's like an unintentional pause/break between two chords (consistently in that same part throughout the song, don't know maybe it's the bridge) because there's no sustain. It sounds jarring because it sounds like a beginner picking up a guitar and not being able to sustain notes or they can't play something fluently at first and it's patchy like that. It would be smoother if he adjusted his tone for the same sound and play to create short sustaining notes and longer sustaining notes as needed rather than be stuck with all short sustaining. Or just strum closer to the neck in those parts but that might sound weird with the difference in tone idk

    • @AOTSismyhero
      @AOTSismyhero 6 років тому +1

      I know you posted this a month ago haha but I think that's just a problem with those old vintage sears guitars. They weren't the best quality to begin with so unless you mod the crap out of it (Doesn't look like he has) You're never going to get that much sustain. You'd have to upgrade the nut and saddles and everything.

      I used to work as an after-school carer for primary school kids. One time I threw on Parliament's Clones of Dr Funkenstein at the playground and all the little kids danced their asses off while the older kids made fun of me for liking old music. Something sad is definitely happening to them in those intervening years...
