  1. Get it on- T Rex
  2. Ne touche pas moi - Idles
  3. I raged through the loud teens.
  4. Don't burn the witch - Venom
  5. I was watching Rage Against The Machine at Reading surrounded by a bunch of teenagers who wouldn't shut up and wouldn't give me the space to move and get away from them. In the end I decided if they wouldn't move, I'd just go through them which upset them quite a lot.
  6. Burn the witch - Queens Of The Stone Age
  7. Christmas you say? That'll involve at least a mention of snow and ice. That'll be a job for the crampons
  8. I'm learning Brushed by Quicksand. Nearly there but there's a couple bits I can't quite work out. I'll get there. I think next I'm going dark with some Chelsea Wolfe, possibly Lord of Liars
  9. Dumb - Nirvana
  10. Dirty - Christina Aguilera Another one I'm embarrassed to know.
  11. 50 million year trip - Kyuss
  12. Nah, aft and stern is the E and G strings obviously
  13. I've always referred to them as the port and starboard pickups. Isn't that the standard? Maybe upstream and downstream would clear up any confusion.
  14. I'm using D Addario nickles on my 5 string. They sound really bright and really good for about two weeks and then very rapidly lost their brightness. Maybe I got a bad set but that's my experience
  15. Knife Party - Deftones
  16. Breathe - Prodigy
  17. Everyone knows real tone comes from the balls. I don't know where ladies get their tone from.
  18. Be quiet and drive (far away) - Deftones
  19. https://www.takefiveaudio.com/contents/89-cryo This give a good description of the treatment process. It's a bit more than just throwing a lead in a bucket of liquid nitrogen. I noticed that their list of treated custom cables doesn't include instrument leads. I imagine that it's purely for recording. It would be completely pointless in any other situation. Even in a recording situation it's a bit pointless these days since everyone just listens to mp3's
  20. Avenues and Alleyways - Rancid
  21. You're only going to really know that the freezing was what's causing the difference if that's the only difference. Maybe the difference you heard was caused by another difference in the cables, maybe it was caused by the freezing.
  22. Was that back to back with two identical cables, one treated and one not?
  23. From what I can find, cryogenic treatment of copper changes the crystalline structure and is often used as a pretreatment for electrical components used in cryogenic conditions such as space. It seems a bit pointless on instrument cables since the constant flexing will have an effect on the crystalline structure and probably end up somewhere near it's pre treatment state. I suspect the main purpose of cryogenic treatment of instrument cables would be to extract money from gullible people. Give them a standard cable, tell them it's treateates and then listen to them waffle on about the incredible detail they can hear with it.
  24. Run to the hills - Iron Maiden
  25. Should I Stay or Should I Go - The Clash
