You guys did a wonderful job, especially considering your recording setup. In my experience, the biggest drawback of recording the drums with only 1 or 2 overhead mics is that you lose the bass drum altogether. But still, you really did an impressive job here.
killer cover!!! hey if yall aint usein that orange amp you can ship it here to charlotte NC i'll gladly take it off yer hands.. hell i'll even come pick it up.
you're a fucking beastly guitarist man, and Deku Tree may actually be the best band name i've ever heard. you guys need to put out some original stuff, i'd buy it. like, over the internet.
Very nice. Also, the bassist/vocalist sounds like he would be very good with some epic doom. The singing in that aspect reminds me a bit of Isole. Emphasis on a bit.
Lower the volume on drums and increase the volume on bass a lot if you want to nail the original version.....if you're making a version of your own then it's ok
literally the only bad thing i can say about this song was at the very end with the bass you could hear the snare buzz. You turn the snare off at the end and its pretty much a perfect cover. Great job guys i love it.
I say the guitar work is just a bit too frantic and quick at times. Its stoner doom metal, not anything really fast. Thanks for posting this though, lovely.
you cant play something by sleep without the bass. N damn you cant play something by sleep while having an orange amp sitting right in front of you , yet not on.
@Chasehead its not the fender that doesnt do low tuning its your strings try heavier gauge if your gunna be in drop d i have a 75 pbass and i play in drop c constanly and its beautiful sound all the time. but you awsome jam
Hello, I recorded the video's sound, and the sound is in very good quality sound format. Was the sound in the video recorded with all 3 microphones, or one of them specifically? Could you explain to me in full detail, giving the names of the mics...etc... I'm looking to purchase the Shure SM58 in the future, and I need to confirm its quality before I do that. Please respond, thank you.
On the original record goes second guitar that does wah-wah and the rif entering(instead of cimbal here), but that's tiny part that keeps you from perfect...
You gotta be kidding me man.. Oranges are the BEST for stoner! Tell that to Boris. They fucking worship Orange. I own the twin overdrive channeled one, and for a little boost, plug in a fuzz pedal and you're set! Orange and Electric amps (Green in most cases) are the BEST for stoner! Inlcuding many other tube amps. Vox, Marshall, Laney etc.
I agree with some folks' comments that it's a shame the bass doesn't shine through with quite the clarity that we hear on the album...
...but let's be fair here. A professionally mixed, recorded, engineered album pressing being compared with three college dudes recording a jam in one take - well, I think that says it all really, eh?
In summary, I concur with those who said it before me:
good recording and playing. but why did you use a fender deville when there's an orange halfstack in the room? was it too loud? the headbanging was a bit corny-looking though
The Orange isn't mine while the Fender is. Also I like the sound of the Fender much better. The DeVille can get noticeably louder as it's 30 more watts and has more speakers, although there's no point getting any louder than the drummer And we weren't trying to be corny as we were legitimately into the tune.
damn this is a really good cover but i must disagree with the previous statement about dragonaut being the greatest sleep song.Have you heard dopesmoker?
I have heard every single Sleep song there is bud. I'd guarantee I'm a bigger Sleep fan than you. I'll disagree, I don't think it's the best Sleep song. I'd put it up there in the top 5 for sure.
That's a little presumptuous, don't you think? He could actually BE Matt Pike up here trolling us. On the internets, anything is possible! - anyway, Sleep trivia smackdown gogogo
I think I could sing this better probably, and actually know ALL the words :P No offense to Ian. Nice improvisation solo, not close to the original but that's why it's a JAM. Nice job again guys. I want involved in this so fucking badly it hurts.
