It just goes to show that this is a Music BUSINESS and anyway they can make more money is a good way... It's like in the early to mid 00's when ALL Music gear turned white for about a year... Apple sold some iPods and BOOM EVERY piece of gear turned white over night, even if it aesthetically sucked... Bandwagon Jumping... I was telling my friend we should combine some effects make up a cool name talk all day about it on ILF and wait for someone to come out with a pedal with our "sound"...

Doesn't matter if it's an ILF friend or not. You're still a traitor.

Good combination. Bad name. It'll never fly.

"Flingor" is Swedish for breakfast cereal (flakes). You could possibly ring Swedish Kellogs and get a product tie in?

funcky tread.
one octave down > fuzz (with some clean blend) > shimmering delay = heaven.

Damn... that was a good one.

I agree with zander. Not really seeing it. The only place I am hearing an overuse of shimmer is by those postrock hipsters goofing around with their loopers on Youtube.
