Well gang… Tonight was Tim’s night. I hung out in the studio for moral support, while Tim laid out some really driving bass lines… They ROCK!! Tim’s bass tone was really filling the room up with sound! Matt Bell & Tim put his amp head in a different room than the speaker cab, so its built-in cooling fan wouldn’t be picked up by the microphones while recording the tracks. Those monster amps gotta stay cool, eh?!
Well, the Fulltone Bass-Drive pedal did its thing really well & really added some nice aggression to the bridge sections of the songs! Kudos to Michael Fuller at www.fulltone.com for making such a great pedal! I’m considering purchasing the “Full-Drive II” guitar overdrive from him in the not-so-distant future… It probably won’t be on this album, but you’ll probably see me using one on tour from time to time…
Just from talking to Tim, he seems to be really pleased with all the work we’ve been doing! Things are really heating up… We’re working the tracks until they capture EXACTLY what we want them to. We’re very proud to say that we haven’t (& will not) cut any corners. The overall songs sound very strong & are filled with emotion… human emotion… every note is played like “we mean it” & mean it, WE DO.
