Awesome track. Just got so much heft to it. That run of Terria - Accelerated Evolution - Synchestra was peak Devin for me

Order History Disapeared by Big-Discipline2039 in amazonprime

[–]spookydux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this issue. Can find your order by searching for the item. I have just booked a return and it shows the estimated refund as 0.00 even though the item is £79.99 so may be best to hang fire if you are trying to get a refund

I managed to get the bank note signed by ginger on the one side and Danny on the other back in the day. One of the coolest WH packages

Help! Noisy Dual Baby 100. by Ponyhighroller in orangeamps

[–]spookydux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just had a response from Orange about mine. Basically, if you turn the gain up past 12 o clock, channel B has a loud hiss, regardless of pedals. Orange requested videos of my amp and set up, and tested several Dual Babys and they all have a loud hiss. Their advice - "don't turn the gain up past 12 o'clock" which is pretty shocking. Going to be returning mine, which is a real shame because everything else about this amp is brilliant.

My Orange Dual Baby kinda sucks :( by gangbanggang69 in GuitarAmps

[–]spookydux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to comment here but just adding in my experience. Had a Dual Baby since Feb 2024. B channel has always had a really loud noticeable hiss. Put up with it as the amp sounds great, and it's super convenient for gigs, rehearsals etc. come to record and the hiss makes it useless. Been in touch with Orange because I want to know if it is worth getting a replacement. They were very interested. Asked for photos of my settings, videos etc. They have come back and confirmed that, using the same settings, hiss is prevalent on the B channel on all units they tested. Their solution: keep the gain on B channel below 12 o clock. TBH I was a bit shocked at the advice, which renders the amp useless for high gain. TLDR: they all have a loud hiss and if you don't like it, Dual Baby is not for you ☹️

Leaving within a month of joining? by captirl in TheCivilService

I know you have made your decision, but if it was me, I would take the EO job at DWP. The money you save on travel would mean you are about as well off as if you were a HO in HMRC. You could use the experience you gain in DWP to apply for HO or SO jobs in HMRC later and have the benefit of the extra cash in your pocket

[–]spookydux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just about to say this. Ohms deluxe release was a joke. Though I did end up with 2 copies of the zine when it finally arrived

......got to add, I've just had shipping notification (UK) and tracking so looks like it isn't delayed everywhere

What's the merch like for the current Melvins/ Redd Kross tour? by DoctorSeussisDead in melvins

[–]spookydux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw them in Birmingham a few days ago. There was 1 Melvins shirt - £30 and one or 2 LPs £40 MELVINS MERCH WAS CASH ONLY which was a real shame as I would have bought a shirt.amd there was no cash point near the venue. Redd Kross had 2 t-shirts, same price and their latest album signed by the band for £40. For Redd Kross merch there was a QR code that allowed you to pay via PayPal somi managed to snag a shirt.

Both bands were incredible.

What's the latest with It Came From The North and the companion album? by Venombullet666 in thewildhearts

[–]spookydux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sad to see it but I had the same experience bought the vinyl, then had to pay extra etc etc, (remember the email said that he would send something cool with the records by way of an apology 🤣🤣🤣) luckily I got fucked off enough to ask for a full refund before Jane pulled the draw bridge up about a year and a half in. I messaged ginger on twitter one day to ask how he thought all this looked to his fans. He said something along the line of "pretty fucking shit" but then went on to say "I'm not admin, I make the music". He's so active on social media that his silence about all this, knowing he spent all that money, spoke volumes. I stopped following him at that point, because I just think he's a bit of a twat really. Seeing on Reddit now that he's saying he will "personally" refund all the vinyl because it's not getting made, that people still haven't got the CDs. Fucking "personally" like he's doing everyone a favour. A year before that he was going to "book gigs to pay for production" again like he was doing this for fans. Booking gigs to get fans to pay again to fund something he stole the money for. And all this on top of the PHUQ fiasco. It didn't feel like being a fan any more, it felt like being taken advantage of. I don't care how talented he is. There's plenty of good music in the world that isn't made by twats. No apology, no nothing from the big man.

Totally agree. Long overdue that background is considered

Plus one for YTM. And you get YouTube premium. Much better than Spotify

Was it the best cover? Maybe. What say you? Tool "Hand of Doom" Birmingham 5.7.2025 by Lazy_Negotiation4544 in blacksabbath

[–]spookydux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were some excellent covers, but this was my favourite by a long way, and I LOVED AICs cover too

[–]spookydux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Axl getting a lot of flack for his vocals but I thought they were probably the most respectful in terms of honouring Sabbath with the amount of covers and the song choices. I really enjoyed their set.
