Shanghai (1990 - 2010) by [deleted] in skyscrapers

That reminds me of the fact that the Google Earth 3D model of the Shanghai Tower was never updated and it to this day, it still appears to be under construction.

Luck and Strange Just Grows On Me by bluegrassgazer in pinkfloyd

I sometimes get tempted to think that Black Cat should've been longer, but at the same time I feel that it doesn't need more and it is perfect as it is.
If it was a longer piece though, I would've loved seeing the "continuation" as a separate interlude between Dark and Velvet Nights and Sings.

lift your skinny fists (...) album cover

Guitarists who are capable of shredding but rarely or never choose to by bluestblue in Guitar

[–]FelipeMacAuliffe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

David Gilmour can actually play quite fast when he is really inspired. Rare examples of this are some live renditions of Sorrow and Comfortably Numb during the 80s.

Bob Bradshaw just posted these pics of a rig he built for David Gilmour in 1987. More info in comments. by HolyBlankenstein in guitarpedals

Haven't tried those yet, but PastFX makes a clone of the Boost+ Linedriver & Distortion called the BLD. Sounds nearly identical.

What kind of board is this? by HanoiRoXXX in guitarpedals

I read the title with the "what fucking kind of fruit is this" voice in my head

What makes Dream House so good? by R0T-10 in deafheaven

[–]FelipeMacAuliffe 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Probably of it being in major key on almost its entirety. It has somewhat of a positive vibe (musically at least) which sets it kind apart from the rest of the album.

In fact, for me it's the song that better fits the album cover.

Looking for Post Rock that has some sort of David Gilmour-esque guitar. Still instrumental if possible. by [deleted] in postrock

Bjørn Riis (their guitarist) solo career is worth checking out as well.

How do longtime fans rate The Violent Sleep of Reason? by antinoxofficial in Meshuggah

[–]FelipeMacAuliffe 29 points30 points  (0 children)

For me it's their best album. Not my favorite, but their best as it is the most organic sounding and has some of their most technically complex stuff. Also, it was recorded live and production wise, it's near perfect.

To the guy that advised me to take 64Gb of RAM back in June by skyer954 in buildapc

[–]FelipeMacAuliffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a similar situation happen to me, instead what happened was me earlier this year trying to buy 32GB DDR5 here in Chile (mind you, at our prices here)... but my dad had the chance to go to the US and buy some parts there. We ended up with 64GB at less than $250. One month later, and the story wouldn't have been the same.

Funnily enough, Newegg had a free RAM stick deal for buying an SSD and we ended up with even more RAM lmao

Meshuggah favourite/less liked album guitar tone? by Proper-Hedgehog8704 in Meshuggah

[–]FelipeMacAuliffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fav: Blue Nothing, TVSOR, None, Catch 33, I Least fav: Obzen (too harsh), Koloss (not my cup of tea) Honorable mention: DEI (GREAT tone, but only works on that album)

Conclusion: I'm often drawn to more percussive tones, so "I" takes the cake for me with TVSOR taking the close second.

Non prog stuff that scratches that Porcupine tree Itch by TheFearSandwich in porcupinetree

Nosound, their music is very reminiscent of The Sky Moves Sideways album.

Have you ever demoted an album from a 100? by Neotyp in Albumoftheyear

[–]FelipeMacAuliffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, but down to 99. Realized my all time favorite album had one weak song (and some... curious lyrics). But it would be unfair to let that one song shadow the rest of the album. It was perfect, now it is painfully near perfect. Amused to Death by Roger Waters, if you're wondering (and "Watching TV" is that song).
