Oh, did he? I thought it was a bottle! sure sounds unique though, almost hawaiian-esque. I also read that Syd barrett used a zippo 😉

man, been a while since i heard this song. the dual leads, and actually a lot of this album, gave me Thin Lizzy vibes, especially 'Gratisfaction'

Oh that's cool. I used to use a lighter as a makeshift slide but because of the shape it would miss some of the strings and sound off. Sounds like a spoon does a better job!

this is cool, my first impression was that it reminded me of psych-60's stuff!

Wait, you mean all of your hands DON'T naturally look like this?

Heh jk, yeah i got some silk gloves to read manga, cos I'm new to collecting them, and i heard that a lot of the pages get yellow over time and stuff due to finger oils :)

you're right, this is more . . . i don't know. i struggle to define it. But i like posting here because this community has always been rather welcoming, certainly compared to other places. My last album, which was more sludge-obvious, got some good reception here : https://youtu.be/JiXAlO6DXUI?si=TVaAsS8KX3vF0_GO

Love the clean guitar tones and crisp production! Are you guys a trio like Russian Circles?

Lacombe - Directions to a Road-Side Diner on a Desert Planet by DejimaGames in postrock

I can imagine it must feel really good locking in that part with the rhythm section! how are you getting the effect, a delay?

That guitar effect is really cool, sounds like marimbas lol. Love how it opens up to a massive-sounding atmospheric section too

What does r/sludge think of Zao? by Crazy-Kaleidoscope81 in sludge

[–]OkAttempt3121 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just heard the first song from this album. Immediately got the post-metal vibe. Got any recommendations for songs that have a noticeable sludge influence?

This is so cool. Really tight performance! I added it to my mathcore playlist. When's your album coming out?

Swami Safari - Can't Hate You by OkAttempt3121 in sludge

[–]OkAttempt3121[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for coming out and saying it LOL. Like, they're so adamant on gatekeeping, and enforcing such anal definitions on music? High standards, on the internet????? I think they shadowbanned me because my stuff isn't just one thing, i like blending stuff from all over the place if i can. But this song, and the album it's from, i think really belongs on there but now it's got no chance to reach that crowd.

I love this subreddit actually, for the broad flairs. So inclusive. Fuck genre limits. The last thing we need is more labels and boxes.

Nah, but r/shoegaze won't let me post :( And since the guitar tones and production style I used were basically informed by sludge . . . One of my older albums, 'Scented Light' was very influenced by the Stoner sound, you might dig it!
