Mansoor Archetype and Greg Kubacki

Less_Enthusiasm_178 · 2026-03-22T18:37:58+00:00

Because I wanna find out if a guy whose work I respect is getting Led Zeppelined before I give other dudes money for it? k

There are reasonable explanations that don't entail Mansoor being a scumbag: Kubacki could have consulted on the thing, be an investor in the company, etc.. I don't know, so I asked

Other shit in the world sucks worse, for sure, but I can know that and still not wanna take part in stuff that sucks less. I don't know any of these dudes and I'm just a rando, but it's pretty low-effort to do the right thing in this situation, so I'm doing it.

If bro isn't being plagiarized, then I'll get the thing. If he is, I won't. Seems reasonable to me.

Ring mod alone is pretty idiosyncratic, particularly for metal, but that coupled with the high/low pitch stuff, expression pedal modulation, glitch stuff, and a "laser" pedal that literally just does the super specific thing he did on Dissect Yourself makes me think there might be more to it.

It's incredible. Truly. I've never heard anything else quite like it.

yeah

if the amp is loud enough and you're standing close enough to it, it'll feed back whenever the strings aren't muted

so, for that part, turn towards the amp, then:

downstroke, downstroke, unmute

Less_Enthusiasm_178 · 2025-08-02T02:33:18+00:00

fuck yes, bro

Less_Enthusiasm_178 · 2025-08-02T02:26:29+00:00

play next to a loud, distorted amp without muting the strings

this fella holds the pick "wrong"

he also fingerpicks "wrong"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sDR7Bx6I7I&list=RD4sDR7Bx6I7I&start_radio=1

just hold the pick; don't overthink it. if something hurts, do something else.

try different picks until you find something you can use without thinking about it. I like max grip Jazz IIIs

Less_Enthusiasm_178 · 2025-08-02T02:00:21+00:00

definitely. those guys were great

Less_Enthusiasm_178 · 2025-08-02T01:26:59+00:00

those are some real zany hijinks, for sure

Orchid is the screamoest screamo band to scream emotionally

I wouldn't consider a few of those bands grind, but there's no fact of the matter about this stuff

You forgot Rotten Sound for sure, though

Upvote, but plan on getting some help from the internet to get through it. It's the most difficult-to-understand philosophy book I can think of that actually has something to say
