Harmonic Convergence by Balance of Tension

After fitting a Floyd Rose bridge to my vintage BC Rich 'Bitch' guitar I recorded some heavy riffs to test it out...\m/

Deep Space Radio Waves

This one was a bit of an experiment. I have been using a pick to play the Bass for about 27 years because I started out on a six string but all my fave Bassists use finger style: Geezer Butler, Steve Harris, Les Claypool, Tony Levin, Geddy Lee etc. so recently I have been practising without the pick & really getting into it. This recording was all just bass riffs then the guitar was added later. To give the Bass some space the guitar was recorded a bit like the first Van Halen album - panned over to the left speaker is the dry sound then some delay/reverb over in the right speaker to get that big sound instead of double tracking all the guitars like I usually do. The bass is a bit more in your face on this! Play it Loud!!! \m/ ;O)>

Oblivion

DO NOT PLAY THIS! Unless you have already lost your mind. For best effect listen on headphones very loud in the dark & DON'T LOOK BEHIND YOU!

A Solitary Goat In A Dark Satanic Mill

Rockin' Rudolf!

OLD PENDLE

(Words: Milton Allan; Tune: Brian Osborne)

Pendle, old Pendle, thou standest alone.
Twixt Burnley and Clitheroe, Whalley and Colne,
Where Hodder and Ribble's fair waters do meet
With Barley and Downham content at thy feet.

Pendle, old Pendle, by moorland and fell
In glory and loveliness, ever to dwell
On life's faithful journey, where e'er I may be,
I'll pause in my labours, and oft think of thee.

When witches fly out on a dark rainy night,
We'll not tell a soul, and we'll bar the door tight,
We'll sit near to t' fire, and keep ourselves warm
Until once again we can walk on thy arm.

Pendle, old Pendle, majestic, sublime
Thy praises shall ring till the end of all time
Thy beauty eternal, thy banner unfurled,
Thou'rt dearest and grandest old hill in the world

Old Pendle

Thanks to my mate Gaz of PIGWITCH for setting up my old Aria Pro II Bass, I was just testing it out at home and came up with this tune. I love that bass - it's been with me for 26 years now!!

Sounds a bit like being trapped inside the space ship Nostromo with an Alien who wants to drag you into a mosh pit then rip out your spine! \m/
