I came back again

Awesome man! Yeah that’s me. Thanks for the kind words! We are ok. Working hard on our new project called Ater. Stay tuned for that 👏🏻

Why yes thank you! Check out an album by my band PDP called the Arcane Ascent. Original music in this style. Also a big influence on this sound for me growing up was a band called Admiral Angry, my buddies from high school. Check out their album Buster. Other than those just meshuggah ofc and some stoner/doom bands like Conan 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

@@Capt_shred Thank you verrrry much! I'm listening to Arcane Ascent right now, and I plan to move through your other suggestions in due time! Regarding Meshuggah, they have been an obsession of mine for almost a year now.

@@Capt_shred You know Admiral Angry? That's sick! I just talked to their bassist Brandon Gillichbauer a few nights ago over instagram. Really nice guy, told me about how he gets his tone and some updates on Admiral Angry, apparently they're planning on releasing more material if they can get back in contact with their vocalist Chris Linblad. RIP Daniel Krauss.

Zanhan hehe thanks man, ya they're super dope

Philip Mead haha! I didn't send them to u already? Just shoot me your email I'll send em then

haha nope, I've been patiently waiting too. My email is philkilla666@yahoo.com

Jake Wilde hahaha! Thanks brother so glad you dig 🤘🏻😁

just when you start to think that, means more acid

Jake Wilde haha it’s a Conan shirt 😜

MrTubularBalls ya man there's a parallel distortion bus on the vox, ya I was going for as fucked up a sound as possible haha but kinda buried on purpose

Hi. This was done on a 9 string guitar vs the usual 8 that meshuggah uses. So, a string down. However, my guitar was tuned to standard vs the half step down that meshuggah does. So you are correct I’m playing in C# vs F which would be 2 whole steps down 👍🏻

Bryan Szymecki I believe for this one just standard 9 string C# bro!

So that would be a full octave down, plus two whole more from standard 6-string tuning? No wonder it sounds so beefy. Holy shit. Thanks, man.

Also, nice Conan shirt!

I really hope you're a teenager.

Guy Buddy hahaha you hope I'm a teenager, for using a term correctly? A little backwards there. By the way, I've more than 25 years experience in music/metal, am a classically trained composer, so no I'm not even close to a teenager. Though it's probably more related to my degree in English, why I feel words should be used properly/appropriately. In metal terms sludgy indicates sludge which is a specific genre. This is not sludge. A teenager would make such mistakes, so you've got that backwards bud.

xjesusxchristx I understand sludge is a genre but I'm using it as a descriptive term here. Most people understand what I mean 👍🏻

Josh Seguin Which is completely reasonable. I have a habit of being pedantic, likely due to being a writer. The guy above you however is just some blowhard with a strawman.
