@javier0100 Yes he is, it's nearly impossible to stop leakage from other mics if you have the drums in the same room. And believe me, you don't want to hear drums getting picked up on vocal mics with reverb, and you don't want to hear drum mics picking up guitar and bass amps.
nathan gave me a cd from a concert i wen to with them it was so fun we smoked in the bac wit my firend gavin he opened for them (memphis,tn) bt i dnt kno the name of the songs ahhhh nt i kno one goes like this wasting gage ahh wasting gage rockets gadgets wasting gage ahh its wasting gage rockets ahh ohh
@animatedrouge2 There is a lead guitar for a reason. The lead singer/second guitar player can completely quit playing and the song really won't sound much different. He has plenty of time to focus on his singing/headphones :P
Bro, Nathan recorded the first album on a Macbook with the internal mic and used a trial version of GarageBand to mix the songs. Definitely wasn't studio material, but was a very creative porject and shows idea. Besides, the first album was amazing.
@waggleparty this is cut like in bits. youll find that the strumming doesnt go with the sound and he has his headphones off and he still playing then they apear on his head back again but yeah i would want the tabs to this lol.
@waggleparty they are "odd chords" I guess you could say. Modest Mouse uses the same G7 shape for "Interstate 8". If you look up the tab for that you'll see what I mean! Verse: C7 - A7 - D7 - A7 - D7 - A7 x2 Chorus: C7 - G7 - D7. Not sure about the "wipe all the sweat from my eyes" part, but this is what i could figure out at 3am with my guitar. xD
@localdummiesguy I think I figured out this 'wipe all the sweat form my eyes' part. It would be B and then this tremolo part would be G7 and G7 with your pinky one semitone higher :p
@Arrivald you are correct sir! After that, its just E (power chord shape) and then B for the "stuuuppiiiddd" part. I just saw him last week at the Adult Swim festival and I kept my eyes on his hands during this song just to see exactly how it was played, heh.
@KsideHb It's composed noise now, actually sounds good on a good set of headphones.
I love how this band got poppy and still kept a decent amount of surf rock influence in there. Probably one of the best things to wake up to at the moment.
@KsideHb You have to admit, tyhis album is way different from Wavvves. I think the song writing has seriously matured and the songs are a bit more complex than the songs off Wavvves.
@prammaven agreed. when anyone asks me what kind of music do i like, I say, mostly pop music. That freaks people out which is fun. Pavement are a pop band, so were sonic youth and minor threat. as is 99% of most music nowadays. Everything is just an offshoot of pop really... i mean, 'pop' music that most people think is like ballads or anything in the charts... a pop band can still have three fans and still be pop.
Pop Punk?...He played a house show at my friends house like 2 months ago and I had a conversation with him for like an hour and i don't think pop punk is what the guy is really going for. At least thats not what it seemed like when we discussed music. I mean pop punk with reverb vocals?
Wow, this band needs a haircut and a new singer. Maybe something a little more classy, like Michael Buble. You kids like that stuff? It's called "standards" for a reason. No one is gonna listen to THIS crap in ten years.
@RappinRodney69 You are crazy this music is a cross between The Beach Boys and Skate Punk from the 90's. And if I am hearing you correctly you are implying that there are musical standards; music is an art form, not a test. And as far as THIS music goes, tread lightly these guys are skyrocketing and Nathan is backed by Jay Retard's old band. Like it or not this music will be around ten years from now and I will be listening to it.
@sasquatchismydaddy Hey there kid, no need to get so worked up over nothing! Hey, if anything, you just proved my point. I was referencing the great American musical songbook, or the "standards" if you will, of which you know nothing about. And the closest link your pot-smoking-social-networking generation has to them is that Michael Buble fella. By the way, what is a "Jay Retard"? Is that some kind of crazy offensive show on MTV? I'll ask my grandson.
@RappinRodney69 Okay first off I'm not getting worked up over nothin, I am a san diego native and have personally met Nathan Williams, he is a nice guy and when he worked at music trader he gave me great music recommendations. Secondly you are entirely wrong about Michael Buble, he is no where related to our "pot-smoking-social-networking generation", go listen to some dirty head's old man. And third Jay Reatard is a music legend, he died this year (1/13/10), it's such a shame.
@lukeashmoore I don't think that's brave, they're one of my favorites.
And have you listened to their singles? And stuff like "Becky"? I'd highly consider that pop punk, but I guess everyone has their own perception of genres.
@lukeashmoore well. we could do this the hard way, or the easy way. The easy way is where you just agree with me. the hard way is where we go through every one of their songs until you truthfully agree.
@AlphabetSoupCircus haha, Im pretty sure most people who know of Be Your Own Pet know that they are far more Garage Rock than Pop Punk. Yes, they do swear and play in a bratty way, but the they are too messy (a good thing) and too daring to be Pop Punk. Look, they are obviously NOT pop punk, just because they have a lot of punk energy and were around in a time where pop punk was present, it does not mean they are pop punk at all. they sound similar Jay Reatard, he was garage rock all the way.
@lucasjensenusa what no it's just that it's a bit more complex than the 3 chord songs on wavvves. look at the amount of pedals he has and voice effects. various strumming patterns too. on the album it feels like it's all over the place but here you can tell they're obviously stoned out of their minds and it's just.. .cleaner
