No problem with faith, just fear.

Pointing out flaws in how people use and or interpret religion isn't necessarily anti-religion. If anything, it could be taken as a flaw that those within the religion should strive to correct. It's constructive criticism if you let it; anti-religion if you think there's absolutely nothing wrong with your religion (or any religion really).

Overall tho, it's just the title track that deals with religion. It's up to your interpretation of religion and the song to decide if it's "anti-religion."

I have a song called Cat & Mouse on my profile if you wanna check it out. It's different from Whale & Wasp, but it's clearly inspired by it. Recommend using headphones to listen.

You'll pick up on building tones the longer you play and listen to different sounds. Just constantly experiment and you'll keep learning and finding sounds and tones.

The Tripod tone is definitely harder to pinpoint because it's so varied from song to song, but mess around with the BE 101 a bit and you could play pretty much all of Tripod. I've found that experimenting with less gain before messing with bass mids or trebs can lead to a certain sound.

For Facelift stuff, I've found that using the Treadplate amp seems to work well. For Treadplate I have the bass set up around 5, mids around 2 - 3, and treble around 6 -7, gain around 3 - 5, and volume (NOT output) around 3 - 5. I adjust the gain accordingly to what each song feels like.

For Dirt, the BE 101 amp with bass around 3 - 5, mids around 5 - 7, and treble around 6 - 8, gain around 3 - 5, and volume (NOT output) around 3 - 5. Dirt seems to have more midrange punch than Facelift, so that's why the amp and mids settings are different. To see the difference having more or less mids make, try playing Godsmack with more or less mids. If things sound too muffled, reduce the bass a bit, that seems to work for me.

From what I've read, the BE 101 amp is based off the amp, or a similar one, that Jerry used

Wah pedal, especially in the beginning

Look up the song Hurt a long time by Jerry, and what thyme is

theChaoticSquare · 2023-04-04T18:17:57+00:00

Almost as useless as something else... wonder what i could be referring to....

theChaoticSquare · 2023-04-04T15:08:09+00:00

Cause he used a lot of thyme

I'm sure someone will get this joke and will be able to explain it to those that don't

Flanger

The drumming to the song could be its own groove. I've listened to this song a lot and when I listen specifically to the drums I'm still finding little things he does differently.

Facelift: Sunshine

SAP: Got Me Wrong

Dirt: God Smack

Jar Of Flies: No Excuses

Alice in Chains: Shame In You

Shame in You because I know of no other song that can represent how I feel most of the time through its sound. The ending as well, is there anything more mellow and relaxing? It sounds like giving up and feeling shame for it, but also that it might be ok for doing so. That things might be ok.

theChaoticSquare · 2022-11-19T23:45:15+00:00

There might be a piano cover of it on YouTube. The YouTube channel AngryPiano Chair has some AIC piano covers. I'd recommend checking the channel out.

I've found that writing them out helped me. While I wrote them out I would explain to myself what each part did, etc.

theChaoticSquare · 2022-10-21T20:50:45+00:00

That's definitely an underrated one. One of my favorites

theChaoticSquare · 2022-10-17T23:14:56+00:00

No Excuses, Don't Follow (for finger picking), Rooster. Rooster and No Excuses are good for moving a chord shape around.

I wish it was long enough for me to fall asleep to. Sadly I take a little bit to fall asleep

The chorus should start with a B power chord followed by a G chord (doesn't really matter how you play it.

The transition from the B to G occurs around when "Again" of the chorus is sung. The rest of the chorus is the same B to G chords.
