Rob's piece is really good Smile Gave me the recording vibes once again, but right now I'm unable to do anything due to someone in the household having flu and no metal resistant ears. I listened to the piece I have and it needs some work in the structure and riffs. But the beginning's ok. I'm tempted to add some drums to make it clearer, but perhaps the fun lies in presenting a weird guitar track and let you figure out the changes.

One of these days I'll stop talking and show it to you Embarrassed

And my so called equipment consists of Audacity and this mic: http://www.thomann.de/fi/the_tbone_sc440_usb.htm The drums come straight from the drum brain to the computer through a stereo plug, so the sound is very good.

Not the size of the vessel, but the motion of the oceanCool

Pekka is as well.

And actually one of my good friends has a set as well. So there's always that.
In fact his is really nice, far superior to the one currently in my garage.

Appreciated.
Save your best stuff for yourself.

We have enough musicians and time to figure it out.
As Ben said, though we need to move not like there is a deadline here



yeah, I guess like Rob if I record something I don't see myself using I might toss it your way... or, if you really need, I could dub in some guitar solos once you've got some tracks that need them


Exactly.
And so I dont repeat, you see my post in the SR about equipment...
We'll figure this out.

I think us Shredder's have functioning brains LOL

Then don't.  That, I think, is the best idea.

This project takes the dross of everyone and spins it into gold.

This crew could put out a record in 2011.  Who knows?

And noise is okay, but you need more than that.


Yes, metal is needed. At the very least some more composed music...

And everyone is welcome Rob. We all got sh*t to do, part of the problem....but if you ever have the time please do contribute whatever you can.

Once a few good pieces are made we can add to it, then move on and form songs from it.

I prefer that to our original "everyone make anything and well piece it together"

Yes, this started seriously so let's do it.
Everyone put up whatever sh*t you want, we'll do with it as we can.
If its no good, at least we are putting material out to start with.

OK, I know we have "real" guitarists but I'm recording some metal tomorrow.
It'll probably suck...but it'll be simple so we can add on maybe.

Until the good guitarists put out some stuff (no rush of course) its all we gotLOL
