davidm Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 this is really good! my only minor criticism would be that sometimes the higher-pitched vocals don't work particularly well. i can see what he's trying to do with it but i don't think it's pulled off that effectively. only a minor criticism though! the songs have clearly been very well-recorded too; overall, very good work!

Shaki Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Cool name! I presumed it was an acronym for something. So, do you actually pronounce it like white noise when people ask what you're called? I'll listen to it later... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartmaxwell Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 dont like the vocals when he does the high pitched yelling, the tunes themselves sound pretty well put together on my laptop speakersdo you pull off the same clarity live? one of the things i loved about executive distraction tasks was that it was super fast and technical but you could hear every little note like the recordings.....

Alkaline Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 do you pull off the same clarity live? one of the things i loved about executive distraction tasks was that it was super fast and technical but you could hear every little note like the recordings.....Yes, that's exactly how i felt about that. The fact that the guitar tone didn't lose any of the precision of the notes in either speed of play or recording quality (considering that it's compressed to fuck by myspace as well) is pretty damn good!

Thanks Phil and Hog! I'm chuffed the myspace compress-the-fuck-and-make-it-sound-crap sound is still good. Consider how much fatter the disc is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartmaxwell Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 that wasnt meant to be a snidey comment jimmer, just meant does it come across the same way live? lots of bands pull this type of recording off but then fail to translate it live and it's usually just a muddy mess of notes. obviously you know a lot about gear/tone and i wondered if you have managed to achieve the same clarity live as it comes across on record?looking forward to catching it at some point!

Ace, I'll keep everyone up to date as to shows and such! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 dont like the vocals when he does the high pitched yelling, the tunes themselves sound pretty well put together on my laptop speakersdo you pull off the same clarity live? one of the things i loved about executive distraction tasks was that it was super fast and technical but you could hear every little note like the recordings.....EDT were just unreal. I was at their first ever gig, and I missed it because I went for a piss. True story. They played for 4 minutes. Pretty much their demo barring the intro track.I dig the jams alot. Reminded me of Psyopus, but perhaps not as fast. The guitar playing is silly-good. I actually prefer the vocals with the high pitched yelling. The grunts sound a bit stock for this sort of music whereas the yelps come as a bit of a surprise. Well in.The tone of the guitar sounds marvellous too.

'Docks' is an absolute beaut! I do think Sid's lower register sounds good too.Were the latter tracks written earlier? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
