Eyes of the south - Down

Long road North - Cult of Luna

Black hole sun - Soundgarden

A mate works in a music venue and had to work with The Proclaimers. They didn't have a punch up but they did arrive separately, had to have separate dressing rooms and didn't speak to each other at all. I've seen musicians fight with audience members before. Tim Armstrong from Rancid used to do it regularly. When I saw them, he gave some wasted bloke a bloody nose .

That's some good stuff. Nice to hear the bass good and clear in the mix. Nicely played as well. I'm definitely hearing a bit of Eagles of Death Metal in some of your songs, especially Water Lane.

Thanks man, I appreciate that. We do enjoy a good riff and if I'm completely honest, I think we owe Tony Iommi a few beers! I'll have a listen to yours.

Going blind - Melvins

I just use a dining chair if I sit while practicing. The bassist in Beak> uses something to gig, he's seriously underrated

Anyone who buys this crap deserves to be conned

I personally find 120 far too light for a low B. I'm currently using a 140 for A#. 110 is my gauge of choice for D but I probably wouldn't notice the difference with a 115

Is it any good for metal?

Thunder kiss 65 by White Zombie Journey to the end of East Bay by Rancid Stinkfist by Tool War by System of a Down Attack of the incompetent lizard people by Skulls Awake (my band)

Cheers. I wouldn't have got here without your encouragement to get started.

And here's this week's installment of stoner metal from Somerset Enjoy

True. That'll leave some change.

£300 to the local gangsters for a shooter and balaclava then something like a Dingwall NG3.

For whom the bell tolls - Metallica

21 Seconds - So Solid Crew My knowledge of awful music seems endless but this is a new low that has surprised me

Sweet young thing ain't sweet no more - Mudhoney

This morning I'm enjoying some classic punk / alt metal from the early 90's. I forgot just how good LOA were

Here's this week's tune. I may be biased but I think this is a killer tune.

I'd really like to try an Ibanez fan fret Iron label 5 string. They sound and look great.

Here we go again - Aretha Franklin

I cum blood - Cannibal Corpse

I swapped the stock Fender bridge on my P bass for a Fender high mass bridge and it transformed the tone. Only joking, it made bugger all difference other than the saddle screws don't fall out and I prefer it for palm muting (yeah I use a pick, wanna fight about it?)
