Or click the link below.
Love you guys.
Hello.
And this one plays way better.
Better action.
Got to fix the other guy.
How are we doing, Jay?
Good, Roland.
Oh, should we just go?
All right.
Yeah, good morning.
Good afternoon.
Good night.
Holy crap.
You know what's awesome?
Man, not being sick.
Physically, like the physical, I mean, it's cool to be sick, but not physically ill.
It definitely makes you grateful to when you're feeling, oh man, when you're sick,
sucks but but those like the next day when you start to feel better oh man it's just you're like oh
i could i could conquer the world right now man i feel like i could do anything but yeah i'm glad
we did the last one that that last solo sucks i'm trying to uh get some redemption points right now
but uh yeah i'm glad we didn't cancel um i started getting sick on literally it was uh
it was Tuesday and then that was the day that Zach Wilde came in and then I woke up and I was like
today today I'm going to start getting sick oh that sucked dude that freaking sucked but you know
I mean this whole thing has really taught me just to uh just be professional you know I guarantee you
If anyone watched this, no one knew I was sick.
I was really about, no one knew I was getting a headache.
No one knew I had, but that's what, you know, we've all, we've all been there.
We've all been there.
You have something going on in your personal life or, I mean, you're not feeling well.
But man, you got to, you got to go to work.
That's, no, no one cares, man.
You got to, you know, you got to drop in and just, uh, just do it.
And it's awesome because as humans, we're,
We're definitely capable more than we think.
But yeah, I hope we enjoyed last week.
It was a big week for us.
It was kind of like a secret.
You know, I've been talking with Zach's team for a while.
And again, you know, I don't, I try not to get too excited about stuff because I never believe it until their ass cheeks.
The flesh on their ass is connected to.
this couch. Until it's there, I really don't believe it. But it happened. His team's awesome.
Everyone at 5B, Mario 5B, thank you for that. Priscilla. It was awesome, man. What a different,
Zach has his own cadence, cadence of speaking and his own humor, which is exactly what you want, you know.
my best to be present in the moment.
Again, uh, that day I was very, uh, it was day one of becoming physically ill.
And I was like, of course is today.
What other day would have happened then today?
That's life.
That's, that's, that's God just fucking with you.
And then, uh, literally I, I pulled up, little like, little like behind the scene stuff.
Uh, I parked here.
And then, uh, I, I just sat in my car.
And then I recorded a video.
I was like, I want to document this.
I kind of, it was kind of cool.
And I recommend maybe you could try it.
Okay, I'm feeling a certain way.
I don't have my journal.
So you know what?
I'm going to record like a quick, like one minute video.
And it's not for the internet.
It might be, it might not.
I don't know.
I'm just going to record it.
I'm going to do a stream of consciousness when I'm feeling.
literally sat there and I just I prayed the God I literally prayed um to uh open my heart and uh clear my mind
because I cannot do it by myself and uh because I have a lot of personal stuff going on
outside the pot which we all do you know so I'm I guess uh you could look at me to see how
I'm handling it um let's see this is Monday literally this week um
in the middle of like a transitional point
could be a major transition point
in my personal life but uh
it doesn't matter
um
you gotta compartmentalize
and this thing has taught me
probably one of the biggest things
I learned from this past five years
compartmentalizing
um
it's definitely
I've had this conversation with
my lady it kind of makes you feel like
bipolar or like
schizo or like a fucking psycho
like just
one moment you're this way and then the next you switch your brain and put on a whole other hat um but it's it's very doable you know i'm an example like i i did not have that um
are we are we already during our first rant but it was cool uh yeah i made then i looked at it i watched it i'm like okay
it's interesting i'm probably not going to post this on on the internet but it's cool i'm maybe uh you know that might help you out
if you're trying to process some some thoughts that's what that's what i did that moment it's kind of
wanted to like document um a moment in time like this little snapshot because we worked me and jabe
been working our asses off for this one moment and then of course sometimes it's not even about that
moment it's like you're going to have things going on around you and how are we going to handle that to
make sure this moment you've been working towards.
It's cool.
But, man, what a trip.
Just looking across me and I'm looking in Zach Wilde's eyes.
It's like, holy shit, Zach Wilde.
I'm just looking at him.
Not just with him, but in public.
I like to feel my heart and kind of let my bones just kind of
be bones.
Just like kind of let your
just drop
whatever,
just trying to be present
and I literally just stuff
things I do with friends
or out where I chose
that's how I don't,
that's why a person go out.
How I go to shows
I'm not nervous or
no anxiety.
Just kind of chilling.
I did the same thing here.
Try to be present
in the moment
when you're talking to a other human
and given the
my personal
circumstances, I'm very surprised how it turned out. Given my
complete
mind warping, I've been going through the past few weeks.
I think I'm pretty proud of myself
putting on a whole other hat. It's cool.
You know, if I, it's a cliche. If I could do it, anyone
can. And again, I think they call that being professional.
That guitar he had, I wish I played it longer.
Remember he gave me the guitar and I started playing a clean riff and I was like, oh shit,
but I don't want to overtake the moment and now I look back and I wish I played it more
because I felt a riff kind of coming out, but it's also weird because it's like, wow,
it's looking at you, you know, and I don't know how to solo or do anything like impressive.
I wish, but I did wish I kind of kept it longer, like, because something kind of came out.
And it felt the action on it was really fucking sick.
I was, oh, shit, like, whatever a string gauge he had, I mean, the woods are identical to, like, all my offenders.
It felt, I mean, the action and the, and the sound was like, oh, shit, this is fucking, this is awesome.
Yeah, I wish I played it longer, man, but when I didn't give me a pick, I don't even remember that.
Fuck.
Oh, man, what a.
Great dude. Again, his own guy walks the beat of his own drum.
See, why'd I stop? I wish it.
Oh, that's all right.
It's all right. Maybe there'll be next time.
Hey, Jay, did you have any, uh...
I mean, you've seen this thing, bro, and you finally had a...
fine got to me to do like Zach. How was that for you?
It was pretty surreal.
Seeing this guy everywhere, you know?
A lot of people that come through here, it's like...
You hold them in high regard and then they come, they come through.
And it's just like, oh, it's just a dude, you know?
Yeah.
But he was super chill, super humble.
That's, I guess what I'm trying to say is that he's very kind of warm and just down to earth, really, which was cool.
And funny.
I didn't expect him to be so damn funny.
Oh, he was funny as fuck, dude.
Own humor.
Own humor combined with its own cadence.
It's like, it's hard to nail in real time.
Like, this is happening right now.
I can't, like, do it over.
It was his own humor
A really funny guy
Really really dry humor
Humor but it's cool
And you also got your picture
Oh yeah I did
I didn't post it
Did I have a lot of pictures
Just in my camera rule
Yeah
That should probably
I'll do a little dump you know
Yeah we're just taking pictures
We don't even post them
It's like why why are we taking pictures
And we don't even look at them
Dude I was looking at my photos
In my phone
I'm like there's like
2,000 photos.
I'm never going to look these ever again.
Yeah.
But you probably do a little
little photo dump.
Yeah, I'll do a little dumb, you know.
It's a...
I forget how
you know,
friends are like pretty stoked
that we're here
and that we get to meet these people.
So it would be fun to share.
A little more, I guess.
It's work.
Sharon's work.
Yeah, and I'm like,
I'm like,
maybe it's my moment
you know maybe I don't want to share
maybe fuck y'all no I'm kidding oh yeah of course
dude sometimes I'm like maybe this is like
your personal moment and that's it
yeah especially get older you know
dude you have a show coming up right
oh yeah yeah I'm a band
the dark a la moray
put it right here uh yeah we got a show
I guess today's Wednesday that's tomorrow
and Friday
a couple of little
little uh little a little warm up
shows, I guess. I guess the real shows, but, you know.
Sick.
First ones in a while.
It'd be sick.
Cool. You guys renting a van?
We got a little U-Haul trailer.
Nice.
To stuff all the shit so we don't want to get all scattered out everywhere.
Nice.
But yeah, a San Diego Thursday and then Bill Gardens on Friday.
Where's that?
Bill Gardens. It's L.A. somewhere.
Bill Gardens.

Yeah.
I think I got hit up by your drummer.
Oh, for real?
Yeah, come on to the show Friday.
I'm like, well, really?
Okay.
Oh, well, okay.
Yeah, it's not far.
Okay.
If there's no trap, then it's not far.
It's not far.
Yeah, I appreciate it, man.
Put it on a little bit.
Yeah, man.
Big things coming.
Good luck, dude.
Thank you.
Local band, big things coming.
Hell yeah. If you, uh, if you're one of the few that ordered the very limited, uh, suicide silence EP vinyl from wax vessel, those I've been getting, I've been seeing photos.
I those pop around. So those officially shipped out. Um, yeah, I started getting photos around the weekend.
So there's probably, you're probably all kidding them now in real time. And, uh, dude, the photos I've been seen, like, jeez.
dude, they're like,
they're like,
uh,
like art pieces.
Like how,
like how do they,
how do they make it look like that?
Like you could just,
you could just do a psychedelic and just look at it.
I think a wax post.
Oh yeah,
there you go.
Boom.
Yeah,
all right.
Let's see.
Mangled Wax Cathedral got his in his hand or her internet.
Wow.
What the fuck?
How do you even do that?
How do you print that?
And other ones are insane.
Like the, wow, it looks like Mars.
It kind of looks like a planet.
Wow.
Some of those are a one-on-one.
What the fuck.
71.
Wow.
And there was one last one I saw.
See, too, that's shit like that.
How do you?
Wow.
Yeah, they're like art pieces.
Beautiful, man.
You just get high as fucking as look at it.
You only have to go outside.
So yeah, thank you to whoever bought them.
I've been speaking with a few people via Instagram.
And, oh, wow, it's like a, it's like a flower.
I'm sorry if you're just listening.
We're, like, tripping out over, like, the look of it.
it's i don't understand how you and it works like it's like a working vinyl but this the art on it is like
it's insane wow beautiful yeah and i have a even which i mean by the time this comes out that's that's that's
insane beautiful by the time this comes out unfortunately i think when i'm saying it's pointless but uh
there's a few more left
like I think they're called like
mages or mages
only go out to band members
and yeah those are going to a few people
that I've been talking to via Instagram so thank you
for that those will be shipping out
or probably already shipped out
by the time you're watching listening to this
again thank you for supporting
supporting EP
what the fuck dude
okay now I'm being tripped out
sick artwork
I remember when like the picture disc was like a big deal.
Like now you put a photo on on the vinyl.
What the heck?
But this is like a whole other level of like, uh, of art.
I'm still debating if I'm going to keep one or not.
I'm still debating.
Um, unfortunately, well, not unfortunately.
Just I'm in a point in my life where it's just like I don't want anything in my house.
Um, t-shirts.
Like, was just,
And it's just trying to
think sis
Come out of nowhere
And they're in your room
Like what the hell would happen?
How am I?
Why do I have 20 shirts
I don't wear?
But again, yeah, thank you for
Two ever bought those
And I am liking the
I got a few videos
Of people actually playing it
I'm like damn, that's sick
You like they see it spinning
Like what the hell?
I wonder there's any
I don't think there's any
Any of us tagged in it
But the one's spinning
are fucking crazy. I think I only got in my stories, but
pretty gnarly.
Look at one more spot.
Which is my personal.
It's only photos.
Shit.
At the end, I only got them in my story.
That's so sick. Again, shout out.
All right, I think we're ready to, again, I try to make this condensed and now we're
already 20 minutes in.
Let's hop into some quick.
Questions?
Got a few?
Okay, here we go.
Question number one from Billy Loomis 13-7.
At what point should I stop chasing tone?
Or is that a stupid question?
I believe there is such thing as stupid questions.
I ask a lot of them, but this is not.
I think this varies from player to player.
Coming from someone that's chase tone,
got it and lost it and looking for the thing they already found,
it's a,
you're on a fine line of,
like the blessing is a curse.
Like your search and you're trying to find your sound
and you might even find it and not even know you had it.
And then you keep searching.
I think that's where it gets kind of a
at some point you find
like you find it
so I guess like the
dumb answer is
stop chasing when you find it
again from my personal experience
yeah I really wish I stopped
chasing tone
let's see I found the tone
literally 2007
that was the tone
So you're going to do math
When I started playing guitar
I think I started playing at 98
I think
So probably nine years I guess you could say
From getting my first guitar
To chasing
I mean you're talking like
I was buying amps on eBay
Selling them
buying guitars selling them
Washing dishes
Not going out my friends
Buying gear selling it just trying to find
it but then like there's there's a few guitars i didn't talk about it like prior like i had some
really cool ones and i don't know why i just sold them again um but i wish when i had the pv 51 52 i
stopped it's already there you have it you have it um but yeah that was just that was a special
sound like the pv 51 52 through a crank cabs that was a special uh
sound but yeah when do you stop chasing tone and then when do you know when you found something
i guess that's your question and i'm trying to process it in real time only because
am i in my personal experience when do you stop chasing it when when when do you know when do you
know hmm it's hard to even give an answer because i didn't stop i just kept going like a fucking
idiot um
man i wish i stopped in that era
you got it now just go on to the fucking
you know who did that right was corn
they found their tone they're same heads forever
like that's just same heads same guitars
I wish i did the same thing every record should have been with a pv 50152
um yeah it's that
again, it's a blessing and a curse because what's driving you, you're searching,
but that same drive will actually, you'll overshoot.
And when you find something, like, oh, no, I got to, it can't be this.
And you keep searching.
And that's what, that's where I fucked up when sometimes you have something right in front of you and you don't even see it.
Very common.
I still struggle with that.
But when do you stop?
What do you think, Jay?
When do you stop chasing tone?
Probably never.
And also, they keep making new shit.
So that's why we keep trying stuff, you know?
Mm-hmm.
I mean, you got the...
I know, I got the quad.
You got the quad.
I guess if I could do it all over again,
I'm really trying to share an experience
because I can't give advice because I'll be a hypocrite.
Because I didn't stop.
And like what Jay said,
it's funny because now I had the quad cortex.
And what I'm trying to do with it is actually
capture what I had and make it come out of this.
So not abusing technology,
but using it more as a tool,
which I think a lot of the people really struggle with.
They try to, they're tone searching, tone searching, tone searching.
and then they have all this new shit's coming out
and go ahead, I got to try a new shit
and then they use the technology as a
as an end-all
as a B-all as opposed to.
It's all a tool.
Everything's a tool.
And I'm doing it right now.
Like, this is a tool.
It's not everything.
I'm trying to literally capture a certain sound
that I had, like, around that special era,
like, 2007.
6 to 2008.
I'm trying to capture that.
And what's crazy is the quad can do it.
I think it's going to take a little bit more searching,
but knowing when does stop.
What actually I've been doing recently,
which might help you,
is what's just was a tip I got from Ross Robinson.
When you start laughing,
or when you stop writing music
and you're hanging out with your friends outside
and having open conversations,
stop whatever the fuck you're doing.
Stop fucking with it.
It's done.
Like it has like a special sauce.
I was like, oh shit.
That is true.
And I still kind of keep that advice today.
Something makes me laugh or something
unexplainable happens.
I'm searching for a tone and I feel more open, I guess,
after it's done or I'm done recording or I'm done,
playing guitar i go out i'm on a phone i'm more open kind of i use that as uh what what's the word
thermometer like my my gauge to oh that's done why am i searching when it's already fucking done
i'm not going to make it better because making it better actually will make it worse and that's a
very coming from me it's an everyday everyday battle um it doesn't get easier for me um so uh
Yeah, again, I think the closest off, I think it varies from player to player.
You've got to be pretty present in the moment to understand when to stop.
So Billy and to the world, good luck.
And welcome to my world.
It's a everyday, everyday balance.
And sick.
And speaking of, so I kind of lined up these questions that kind of build on each other.
and this is actually
this one might fuck me up
um all right ghostline
9927
now
I put myself in the fucking corner
what was the decision
back in a day to stop using triple
wrecks
love you Garzo
love you too
tone searching for no fucking reason
Convierce your passion in a
business with Shopify
and bathe records of
with the form of
paying with a better
conversion of the world.
You've heard
well.
The best
conversion of the
world.
The incredible
system of
Shopify
facilita the
on your
website,
in the
social and
in the
world.
That is music
for your
ears.
No,
you're more
your
business
will be
a super-exit
with Shopify.
Empeas
your period
of
a month
in Shopify
point S
bar records.
That's why I...
Um...
We stopped using...
50s after the first record,
started using Triple Rex.
Because they're kind of one in the, like...
All my favorite bands in the 90s used them.
I liked the tone.
I was paying attention to...
bands around me.
Which I still do today.
Like today, I try not to do that,
because the cleansing comes out, the EP and cleansing comes out, everyone rips it off,
and we kind of got put in the corner, it's like, okay, we got to reinvent our tone,
which, looking back, I wish I just stayed there, and my heart told everyone to fuck off.
But the same thing, I just want to, oh, it's, I don't have my tone yet, just kept searching.
And why we stopped using, so I want to say it was no time to bleed.
Black Crown, the first record with Eddie, was all with the triple wreck.
And then we stopped using them because I was trying to find the tone we had.
So that's actually, so it's this weird full circle moment where started using triple wrecks.
And then we stopped using triple wrecks to still a tone chase, but chase the tone that we had prior.
Yeah, I kind of did this on purpose.
I want to back myself in Tune Corner.
But it's sad.
But it's an awesome head, though.
Like it, I mean, a lot of bands use them.
I think I've seen a lot of deathcore bands use them.
Like those triple wrecks are just like, they're amazing amps.
Those early 90s, two channel ones,
if you put like a drive in front of it, any kind of like,
two screamer or fuzz, like, it's just like,
Man, there's
There's something to it.
The best
that had us ever sounded,
we did the Warp Tour 2010,
and I had this
Schechter. It was a Schechter
Blackjack. And for
some reason, that particular guitar
sounded amazing.
Dude, that current triple record I had.
Yeah, that guitar, I should
have kept it.
I used it for
you only once, and I know
where it is, but that guitar
sounded a killer.
Tone chasing,
this might be the whole
this might be the vibe of the whole podcast.
Stop tone chasing.
Just talking about it.
I'm confusing myself.
I'm getting kind of pissed. I'm like,
oh man, tone chasing could be
it could be a blessing
and it could also piss you off because
when you lose it, it just, you lose something
really special. That guitar
sounded really good. That was
I got it
in
I think I got it 2010, like
early 2010, so whatever guitars
were coming out in that era from
Schechter was pretty fucking sick.
I want to say the body
is mahogany. I want to say
neck through, which all
Schechter's are
in the scale is 26.5
which is why I use them.
Got that from Schechter. Really, it's
It sounded really fucking sick, dude.
Through Mesa cabs, which even through the tone chasing,
the Mesa cabs kind of work for each era.
There's something about those caps, like straight Mesa's.
You're just like, it kind of, it definitely transcends eras and old school with modern.
It's kind of just, I don't know what it is about those cabs.
sounds fucking sick
but before I get pissed
let's move on
but yeah
if you're gonna get a cab man
that's the cab
so yeah
that's why I stopped using triple
rex was to recapture
we got EBHs
now to recapture the sound
that we had
but they're great
triples are awesome
and thank you for your question
oh here we go
it's your boy
3870
just bought
a new fuss pedal
any recommendations
on any new pedals
I should own
or perhaps some of your favorites
so I do have a favorite
would this be a fuzz
yeah we talked about it briefly
but uh
yeah I got the
spline
laboratories cathedral
um
I think this is
because not glues kind of ruin
the swollen pickle and
and the fuzz game
it kind of got like
people were trying to copy that
so I didn't want to
I want to something heavy
but not the swollen pickle
they really kind of ruined that whole
it's a great pedal though it sounds fucking crazy
if you
user right but
I got one I was like
okay I
I get it.
I was like, I need something different.
What's like,
it's there, but it's not exactly what I want.
And then literally, right before I got the cathedral,
I was looking to rip off the guitar tone for Orgy's Candy Ass.
No one talks about that record.
Like, that, that, that,
guitar tone is so over the top
and I was trying
to do some research and I really couldn't find much
about that record
which is strange
it's a platinum record but it's
a I mean those guitars
for like Blue Monday that I cover
it's just like a fucking
it's fucked
that a
that guitar tone is just
really over the top
maybe we could find something
and also that record combined
Yeah, so doing this,
then I found
the boss
FZ2 hyperfuzz.
So
given the era,
I'm pretty sure
it's this pedal,
the boss hyperfuzz,
the FZ2.
And also I heard a rumor
that Coal Chamber on Chamber music
used the same pedal,
which is the same tone
I wanted to rip off.
I wanted to rip off candy-ass
Orgy,
chamber music from Cold Chamber.
Because those two guitar tones
are like,
over the top. You're just like, what the fuck is that? And given the era, and a couple of
websites I found the boss hyperfuzz. So it was around the same time where it's like, I,
I might buy this pedal because no one's using it. Everyone's all about knock loose and no one's
being original. So I was like, you know what? I'm just going to buy the hyperfuzz. And then put
it through like the quad cortex, you find like the two modern meets.
old school
and then around that time
I think I talked about already
I was scrolling Instagram and I found some kid
um
I think he's in a band called
Pacer um
shit I don't want
I don't want to get this wrong
um
and he had a strat
and was chugging and was like super insanely
heavy
um
he was playing a friend I was like oh shit
that's
that's what I'm looking for.
I clicked it and I found out he was using this cathedral.
Did research on the cathedral.
Found out their exclusive pedals.
They only do seasonal drops,
which I think it's really smart.
And I hit him up and luckily
they were shipping some out in that moment
and I got one.
They saved me the pink one
given the vibe of the podcast,
which I really appreciate.
So I almost bought the hyperfuzz.
But right when I was going to buy it, I found this thing.
And I got it.
And yeah, it has the, it has the unexplainable sound I'm looking for.
Without giving out too many secrets, I'm planning to use it in a certain way.
Because again, I'm all about combining modern and old school.
using as a tool
people get guitar players get carried away
you're like it's all about gear and then you want to
like when the X effects came out it's ruined
everything
but actually I have it here
it's uh
connected to my board so I can't
really like take it off
it's like really screwed in there
but I gave it a little taste
last time and also I miss
my purple strat so I'm using that
this has way better action
the white one
hasn't got a reset yet. I need to take that defender to fix the action.
If the action is way better. Okay. So no, no fuzz. It's normal chug no horse.
And here's with the fuzz. And then you can have like there's three different settings,
which I'm actually still experimenting with. Here's the, I think this is the over the top setting.
So yeah, there's a, I'm not really on that one. I'm usually on the first one. It's kind of like a,
you know, like little T's.
And this is the other one, which I never even played this one before.
So I might sound like shit.
Um, that's cool.
Kind of cool.
I'll do all, I'm gonna do all three at once.
So this is the, the first setting.
Middle.
Okay, so it kind of sounds like a, it kind of builds,
kind of builds, but I'm usually at like the middle one.
But it sounds like the bottom one, the last one is like that super over the top.
It kind of sounds like, uh,
kind of sounds like bludgeon a little.
bit. Pretty cool. Yes, that's my favorite. It's my favorite fuzz puddle. And in my spare time,
this is actually, this is actually what I'm doing. So as I was saying earlier, I wanted to rip off
orgy candy ass. Um, so what's that song? Everyone knows. Blue Monday. Oh wait, there it is.
Just like over the fucking top, dude. And this is what? And this is what?
without with it's pretty much it's pretty much a hyperfuzz but sicker everything i want from the hyperfuzz
it does but makes it way better with more options because this also has something called a it's a
which uh if you're just listening or watching uh we'll do a separate um angle and i'll show you the
uh settings but it has a called glare glare glare a glare setting i think it's more like like an octa
kind of hidden octave is really cool
what's the other
orgy song it's uh
there it is
yeah that oh that's that's fucking that i think
it's uh stitches i think but uh yeah
if you're in a mood
um for something different jam that record
there's a few rips in there that are fucking
it's heavy dude
and uh
and the cold chamber i think that uh inspired me
was uh
just like an over the fucking top dude
So you see it's like this adds like this
It adds like a weird like dimension to it when it's uh so off
And then you have a double track and then you have the bass
You just made like back in a day just remember being a kid like what the fuck is that
And uh
It's kind of funny like the whole fuss thing happening right now
No one talks about those records
No one talks about candy ass her chamber music which to me like
That's what I was inspired by that's what I was
ripping off and it's funny being a 40 year old man uh listening old the new bands coming out
the new gear like i'm going you know i'm taking from bands that no one else is taking it from
me one's about like knock loose and all that stuff which is cool but this is really like no one
really talks about those fucking records dude i mean super so again if you're uh in the mood for some
different chamber music and uh candy ass i should probably do a deep dive on i don't know's records
like one solo i'll do like a deep dive on both of them they're very uh unique but yeah again
a shout out to cathedral it's by far my favorite uh fuzz pedal i don't think there's anything
like it i'm pretty much done uh shopping around uh it does everything i need it goes new metal it goes a little bit
cleaner got the over the top um excuse me so i mean yeah their builder is fucking he did a phenomenal
job so again i think they're still doing the seasonal drop thing i'm pretty sure um where it's like
i think they only come out with like a few and they always sell out i think they have an email
waiting list too so if you're looking to get one like you can't just like show up and buy one
Sold out. Boom. Always, always sold out. And I think you got to join a list that you want to get guaranteed.
So if you're curious, we got, it's 279 Canadian. Is that, is that Canadian?
Okay, cool. So 279 Canadian. And for me, I mean, this is, I mean, literally, it's on my board.
Like if I'm going to fly somewhere. So, okay, so in U.S., United States dollar, $2,000.
79 is actually
203
99. So $203.99. So $203.99.
So that's worth every penny.
They have hats and
what are keychains?
Jet. Oh, Jet tag? What the fuck is that?
I think it's a fancy word for keychain.
Okay.
It's jet tag. So it's a fucking keychain. But yeah, I mean, if I'm going to play a show,
I mean, it's literally on my board. It's on my
this is the board where it's like
if I want to go play
a show right now somewhere
this is all I have
this is exactly what I want
noise gate and
a sick ass fuzz
I can pretty much do anything
so that's a big
I've been meeting a shout out
for a long time
I've had this pedal for a minute
I always felt bad
I've been shouting out
other pedals but uh so yeah
if you want to fuzz
check it out
it's one of my secrets
one of my secrets I'm sharing with you
without giving too much away
what I'm doing with it
it is going to be in my arsenal
of destruction
if I don't quit the ban
cool I think
should we do one more
I want to fuck
actually let's see the last one
yeah
because time is flying by
I'm trying to make this more condensed
okay last one
last question
XX
Bigaman
XX
Can we get a bean and cheese
Bredo count on the month?
Oh geez.
Oh no.
I think in
February
we're looking at
two week
two week average
so four weeks
is four weeks in February
that's what eight
and let me
transparent it's probably more than eight
Um,
ate burritos.
Almost exclusively.
You know what?
I'll do another shoutout too.
Um.
So my favorite
Beanwich's burrito is from
Miguel Jr.
Unfortunately, it's only a California thing.
Um,
that's my main spot.
The spot closest to here is a,
Rubio's.
And you know what?
dude there it's a it's pricey though but i've been going there based on the convenience and it's
pretty sick um what is it a coastal coastal grill so they have like uh fish and um lobster and
kind of seafood but i you know i've got in there bean cheese burritos there i'm like you know
oh this is pretty pretty sick and they got a little uh salsa bar
Um, it's pretty, you know, I'll give Rubio's a shout out. It's pretty sick. So I think it's a chain, but not really, not really a crazy train. Shout out to Ozzy. Um, I seem around, but not like everywhere. But if in California, like, Miguel's Jr. is pretty, um, they really branched out. Yeah, I would say more than eight burritos, um, mostly from, for Miguel's. They're,
I think they're the best, especially with the issue right now with the prices going up everywhere.
If you're in California, they've done the best keeping their prices kind of down.
Where it's like, I mean, you can't even go anywhere.
I mean, this is beans and rice, man.
Like, why is, why is, I don't know why it's getting expensive.
But Miguel's, I think, has been, shout out to Miguel's.
They've been the best at keeping, like, the prices kind of.
Kind of like, okay.
They're going up, but this is a bean cheese, burrito.
And I said shout out to Miguel's and Rubio's.
So you're outside California, Rubio's.
It's worth trying.
I'm not going to say it's the best, but I've been going back.
So that says something.
If you go somewhere once, I went there.
I've been there at least four times.
So I'm going back.
So shout out.
Thank you for your question.
Um, she was that only, yeah, it was only three questions.
No, uh, that was four.
That's solid.
Okay.
Let's, uh, we, we can move on.
Do we just saw, do we just kind of announced, man, uh, all right, who's going to see
Metallica at the sphere?
Who's going?
So this just happened.
Like, right before we sat down, uh, went on my old, went on social media and Instagram
told me that Metallica's playing the sphere.
Talk about some.
that everyone wanted. Let's see. It's October 1st, 3rd, 15th, 17th, 24, 29, 31st.
So eight shows pretty much every, uh, I assume every weekend of October.
Wow. Dude, that's just no repeat weekends. Damn, dude. I mean, this is what everyone wanted.
People want Metallica and people want tool. That's what people.
that's what people want.
Wow.
Well, they're,
did the band do the first?
They're probably stoked.
They're probably fucking.
So I think the next guest,
uh,
guess is,
uh,
because tickets aren't our sale yet
because this is happening in real time.
Well,
they might be on sale now.
Actually,
uh,
this is out.
When's the,
uh,
on sale date,
Jay?
Friday,
March 6th.
Okay,
cool.
So,
okay, so,
so it's not out yet.
Oh,
pre-sale opportunities
starting this week.
Okay, so I guess the guess
How much your ticket's gonna be for that shit, dude?
I'm talking at the top corner
We're making out
What's the guess, dude?
I don't know. I'll say it no matter what it is.
It's worth it.
No matter what it is, dude.
Because, I mean, when you go into
When you go into like scarcity stuff, I mean, the price can go up.
Like, who knows if this will ever happen again?
I mean, I don't know.
Just don't guarantee.
Man, I won.
There you go.
About a G.
Get you some.
A grand?
Grand for one show.
You know what?
Upper level for 400 bucks?
I think it's worth it.
Straight up.
It's such a unique experience.
Like you're at that point that's like a
A show is an experience a concert is an experience but this is
This is a fucking experience dude like
Wow
Dang
What uh Jay what what what happens when we press info and anything else come up? Oh yeah, I guess not gonna right? Oh, yeah, I got something right? Oh
It's locked up. Yeah, it is it's sick. So congrats to
Metallica for again
just fucking killing it
just straight up killing it
that's awesome
wow man
how much
how much would you pay Jay
the sphere
probably about 300
300
it seems like my level of
you know
love for Metallica
yeah I'm not the biggest
diehard fan
but it would be something to be hold
for sure
yeah
What's the most...
I'm waiting for the tool.
Oh yeah, tool will be.
That's when the drugs come out.
Oh yeah, drugs.
Got to get drugged up, dude.
What's the most amount of money that you spent on a concert ticket?
Dude, I haven't been going because of the scalping is nuts.
Oh, it's insane.
I just, like, I refuse to fucking support a third-party scalper.
I'll, like, yeah.
A couple, I mean, for two people, four, five.
500 bucks maybe.
Okay, yeah.
I can't remember.
It was probably like Muse.
Mews, yeah.
Mews, yeah.
Mews, yeah.
Nice.
It's been a while.
Yeah, a couple hundred bucks
a ticket is quick.
I mean,
I think the most I spent
was recently when I saw
Mana at the forum.
Then they were good,
they were great tickets, too.
They were,
they're playing the Honda Center.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that National is too.
I don't know if you're down the street, too.
It was awesome, man.
It was for my lady, but it was cool to experience something different.
But it was over 200 bucks a ticket.
It was a lot.
It might be in a three range.
But they were really good seats.
And people were stoked, dude.
It was stoked.
Yeah, they're getting me down the street too.
Pona Center, I think, in September.
It's cool.
You know what I was jamming today?
I was jamming a, dude.
Jamming Arch Enemy
Because they just announced their new new singer
Lauren
So out of curiosity
Um
No I wonder how it sounds
So if jamming their
Their new tune
It's pretty sick
It's pretty freaking sick dude
I know how hard it is
To the last breath
You know I went up and you know
Pulled up my Spotify
I went out for a long walk outside
Gave it an honest listen
with my open ear, also my understanding ear, unfortunately.
And that sounds sick.
It's awesome.
I'm sure she's fucking stoked, dude.
What a gig to get.
So congrats to you, Lauren.
I think it's awesome.
And it's definitely worth the listen.
So, man, man, I wonder what they're like,
I wonder what they're going through.
Like, when you're writing music,
and you know you're going to have another singer.
on it it's like
but they did a good job
maintaining the
the tone
which is hard to do
because basically people around the world
are judging you and you're just trying to
fucking wake up and live
um
So I'm trying to come out
from like an understanding perspective.
I mean,
Michael is just a Ripper.
One of the best guitar players on the planet,
I think. He's amazing.
There's kind of like a carcass tone in there.
I was like, oh, I was listening to the guitar tone.
Pretty sick. Okay.
The song itself was pretty cool.
I think it's worth listening.
I think they're going to do a great job coming back.
They wouldn't do anything less.
Again, having my open mind
an open ear.
I wonder what
I wonder what they're doing
and how they're going to do it.
Yeah, I think it's exactly what it needs
to be.
Looking back, I kind of wish I
because dude, coming back with a new
singer is so, it's so
fucking hard, dude. Like it's just
you really don't know what's right
until it comes out and then you have, you know,
hindsight is 2020. I really
wish I had a
our first record with Eddie
I kind of wish I had like a more
understanding of
his vocal cadence and his voice
in general because it's so different
but I think
arch enemy is in a position where
just maintain the sound
from outside
fresh perspective I think in the inside they might
disagree with me I don't know
but from outside or if you maintain
the sound and the aesthetic
it's probably going to
You'll probably be fine for us.
I don't think it was that easy.
It's a weird dynamic that I'm still figuring out.
But, and then this got me into, I forgot what year it was.
But, okay, so I listened to this song.
And then it made me listen to Wages of Sin.
So when I was getting into metal,
metal, metal, like this was the record that was out.
I forgot what year, what year was it?
We're going to pull it up right now.
Makes sense.
Yeah, April 25, 2001.
Makes perfect sense.
I'm a freshman.
So, yeah, it makes identical.
Okay, now it makes sense why I was shaming this record.
So I was a freshman in high school getting into metal.
I knew Michael was in Carcass.
And, man, those first, I remembered.
I put it on.
I was walking around my parking in Corona.
I was like, oh, shit.
I forgot.
about these songs dude did that that first track comes on that fucking snare intro i'm like oh man i i i forgot
yeah enemy within first track and then burning angel i love i love that song the way that opens up
these really really cool chords and i really just the only way i could describe it is is tasty tasty
just classic kind of lead i want to say there's a wan there like eh
I said, oh, I forgot about this.
I remember being a freshman year and just horned up on that song and that riff,
which I think maybe that's kind of,
maybe that that's what you want when you put out new music,
especially the pressure of a new,
a new singer,
which only they understand.
I think each band has its own weird nuances and dynamic,
but from experience,
it's kind of what you want
you kind of want to remind people
and then
they check out your older records
I mean it worked for me
it literally
I was like okay I listen to like the
you know I'm not going to re-comment straight up
that's just
I might as well just hang myself
but I was like okay
what do I think about it
for my experience
um
what's my own opinion
and then I'm jamming it
and then
okay
and it was on the Spotify, it's naturally, okay, you know what?
What was that?
I mean, I haven't jammed that one record in a long time,
probably since freshman year.
It made me check out the old songs and get reminded.
I wonder, maybe that's what you want.
Maybe that's what's pretty sick.
Maybe that's what I want people to do with suicides.
I always tell people, you got to just remind, constantly remind people.
because people forget
it's a very natural human thing
and people just forget
you, your music, they move on to other things
either they grow up or they get onto other
genre of music
kind of remind people I think
I mean it worked for me
I jammed the song and it reminded me
of their old records and why I loved
that particular record
are they going to be in town? Are they on tourism?
I'm definitely not going there
Oh yeah, they're just invading Europe right now.
Cool.
There are going to be in Europe, April 14th, all throughout July and August.
Good for them.
Good luck.
It's a journey.
You might even be what you might even call it a lifetime journey.
I'm on a lifetime journey with Eddie.
From my outside perspective, they figured out a lot quicker than I did.
So, so congrats to them.
Let's see. I think we're...
Anything you want to add, Jay?
I got a good closer.
Anything I missed?
No, just good that we got the Metallica.
Got a little Metallica hit.
I wonder how much those tickets are going to be, man.
Aren't trying to me hit.
Okay, just to give you again,
we've been just telling people to do shit.
Well, here's more shit to do.
Three songs that I've been jamming, two,
Like, because people always, people will ask me and I just go,
you ever like have someone ask you something that you know, but your brain just goes blank?
So I was like, okay, someone asks me, I know this is what I've been jamming.
Some songs I've been jamming consistently, three, three songs.
If you're in a move for like, kind of like a different vibe,
um, after Zach Wilde was here, I got really into, uh, bridge to cross.
like that shit it's more it's a mellow song but that lead in the middle is like insane um so it's off a 1919
internal by me a long song it's a really cool just i really liked the the lyrics um
I don't know
I don't know
I just fucking
it just spoke to me
I remember that morning
being in the gym
the day of
that conversation
that song came on
and then it fucked up my
my research
I'm like I'm like I'm
I want the songs to
get the songs in me
you know I want to like
get the vibe
um
oh damn
that
that's
crazy.
So someone posted on the song.
Good old maggot music 757.
Who's here after the Garza podcast was Zach?
Wow.
That's,
well,
thank you.
So yeah, I was trying to get the songs,
get the vibe,
and then this song came on.
I just stopped.
I'm like,
that I put the song on like repeat.
Especially where I was in that,
that particular day.
It's kind of,
it really,
It really spoke to me.
Bridged across.
So that's just check out Black Label Society, Bridge Across.
CKY, close yet far.
Same vibe.
Just lyrics are speaking to me.
Really cool vibe.
Something different from the CKY sound, but still that.
So I would highly recommend going from bridge to cross
Close yet far
And off the wall one
And I just realized
When I wrote this down
It's really like oh shit they're they're all guests
And then the last one
Is nothing nowhere
Love or Chemistry
I believe the record is
Trauma factory?
We're finding out real time.
Yeah, so love of chemistry.
What's the, what?
Yes.
Memory is working.
Trauma factory.
Yeah, again,
same kind of vibe.
Just like a,
if you're trying to get into
like a certain mood,
uh,
I've been jamming those three songs,
like back to back.
Uh, this past week.
Just, no, no.
Kind of makes me feel good.
So if you want to be different than fucking blasting my
That's my current list.
Maybe next solo
will be all deaf and all songs. Who knows?
But this is where I'm currently at.
Check out those three songs.
Pretty sick.
Enjoy those.
Where am I going to be at?
If you're in Southern California,
I'll be at the
Belvedore show with
incantation.
That's March 10th on Monday
at the Observatory.
I'll be there chilling.
Um, I might be drinking. I don't know yet. So I'll be there. I saw this, which it works. Instagram works. I saw this yesterday. I'm probably, and I'm probably going to go. Uh, I'll be at DBZ backstage. Uh, March 1st. That's a Sunday. Um, looks like, uh, looks like a lot of deathcore bands. Yeah, that, that one. So, uh, Eternal Bloom.
free
town forest
SD
so it's probably from
San Diego
of the
Betrayer
1K
degree knife
and
is that
desolate
okay cool
and
so that's a heavy
show as well
so I just saw this
on a story
it worked
I'm probably going
because this is
DBZ
backstation
Corona
right
across the street from the public library
um
two miles away from my house
so there's no excuse not to go
um
Sunday is usually my date night
but uh we'll
this will be later on
in the evening so I could probably just pop in
so uh those are two shows
I'm currently going to
so March 10th
Pfeagore
Incentation
and March 1st DBZ
looks like total straight up death core
heavy ass shit
um
March 1st
Am I gonna be drinking there?
I'm probably drinking there
March 1st
I'm probably
Yeah
I'm probably drinking
Oh shit
It's also the last show
Of their run
So
And also hate is on there
With the
With the Gorg
Damn it's a fucking
That's his medal
I did reach out to
I don't want to call them out
But I did reach out
To their team
To try to get
The singer on here
but having heard back.
I heard back from the team.
They're trying, but it's all good.
I'm going to keep trying.
Keep trying until I'm dead.
Okay, anyway, yeah, thank you for listening to watching.
If you're in California, you want to hang,
I'll be at those two shows.
I'll probably be at the bar drinking or not drinking.
I'm not sure yet.
I'm currently crossing the bridge.
As Zach Wilde has been singing to me the past two weeks.
Um, as you're listening to watch this, I'm literally in a very major crossroads in my life, um, as we all are sometimes.
So I appreciate you, uh, being a part of the journey.
Enjoy the psychoan podcast.
Did my best.
Learned a lot.
Um, I think, I think that's it.
Um, anything else, Jay?
Get, get, get fucking horned up.
Yep.
Just stay horned up.
Thanks for chilling, tuning in, keeping us in business.
In business, all right, one.
That's it.
Appreciate it.
Later.
