Sounds as though it was recorded on a mobile phone (?), so not exactly the best quality as I'm sure you are aware! But generally I get the feeling it would do the business with a mosh pit full of deathcore fans. Nice bassline at around 1.46, btw... after which my ears and loudspeakers kinda gave up! ;-)[/quote] yeah it was recorded on a phone my mate claims its HD and all that but yeah, its not great quality soundbut thanks for checking it out

hey thought i'd post some footage of my bands show last night with our new co-vocalist Suthee this is actually one of our new songs which we only have as a pre production so far If you like us please check us out at [url="http://www.facebook.com/uphoricide"]www.facebook.com/uphoricide[/url] where our EP is available for free download =D

hi ive started looking into fanned fret basses i use a 6 string John Myung yamaha which is very good but i think a fanned fret bass may suit better the main thing that intrigues me is the scale length is farily long for my band we tune down to f with a 175 string for it and it still feels a little loose for my liking so does anyone know of any makers that do 6 string fanned fret basses that arent over the top pricing and does anyone have any expirience with fanned fret basses that can tell me what there like??
