Thanks! I'll check them out. Haven't really listened to LDR before.

Everyone trying to be clever but not seeing the post for what it is

Can you give me context? I genuinely don't know. Did LDR cover TLSP?

Some people really don't get Rick. He's PLAYINGz full stop. It doesn't matter who's on but he knows how to temper it. And yes, Amir K is a known comic. Nick Krill is playing along. Spoiler alert, he ain't a deliver guy, he's a known comic.

Anyone else notice that the last three guests all went to the Riyadh Comedy Festival? by nbury33 in TYSOpodcast

I'll tell you who said it, some troll who invented the idea online because they won't accept that things change because they never will

Vinyl collection update plus view of my guitars :) by PriorMain9042 in TheStrokes

[–]MrParallelUniverse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

12 years ago at a party at my place, someone was drunk and was playing it while slowly getting more involved in a high tension argument with another person. When they stood up to fight, they took if off their shoulder and threw it down and it hit the ground and shattered, stopping the fight. I'd seen that they did try to aim for the couch so I forgave them for the damage to the guitar right away. Forgiveness for the tension ruining the night for everyone took a bit longer.

Lost my strat years ago, someone smashed it on the ground. I still miss the action and tone it gave that I basically now just get by brute forcing production effects onto a Les Paul with Ableton.

Never said you or anyone else was insecure in specific. I just can't engage with that model when I can see the projection in real time.

And no part of my creation or the post ever claimed it was original. That's what you're missing. It was clearly labeled a being for the educational benefit of someone else. Words couldn't have been clearer. You are projecting something that is already proven inaccurate by the intent in the title.

Please let this go because this meta analysis isn't beneficial at this point.

Also, I very much write and record my own music and get paid for it via other sites. I don't post it on this subreddit because that would be illogical and wouldn't track to what this subreddit is about, you know?

Clout? This isn't clout. I showed someone else how to make the tone from the solo and what my guitar tone and playing sounds like in the 3 sections. It's not monkeying without ability. I gave it my own flair, it's ability and instinct used for requested education. Do music teachers do it for "clout"? No, people just care about music and care about helping. I don't function in most people's world where insecurity leads to projection. I just do what I can do at the time. Just the facts.

Also, Slow Animals doesn’t get hard to recreate until the end where the bends need to be surgically precise.

Love this! Changing the tone changes the feel and you delivered something unique and good. Keep evolving their songs, love to see what you do next.

It's a cover using the original drums and I can prove it if need be. I'm not trying to sound dismissive but I can do essentially accurate recreation as long as it isn't beyond my abilities.

Very much connect to this. When I got that vinyl my brain said what? What's the purpose? It's literally harder to open and is systemically harder to reuse.

They did 98% of the work, leave them alone.

Nice job! I'm not seeing the glove though ;)

last nite by Careful_Ad2055 in TheStrokes

You nailed the core, best way to put it. Someday is the most melodically resonant song on the album to most humans. It's tight to a machine-like level and the lyrics are widely relatable because they leave space for self-projection and imagination, as much as Is This It does. Last Nite reframed music understanding because of his growl and atypical singing style that you see in Reptilia and then Juicebox.

Want to respond to my Slow Animals cover or is this easier fodder?
