The new YOB is damned good.

I heard it's all because of the Hovercrafts.

Bringing back the bedroom amps discussion...I'm thinkin of getting a Micro Terror. Anyone have one of these? Any good? I won a 1x12 cab in an art contest and now I need something to run through it.

Well let's hope that Hovercraft doesn't go out of business, otherwise YOB will have to break up again.

I've got a Micro Terror. I haven't used it in a bit, but its awesome, and PLENTY loud. Honestly haven't been able to bring it past 2 in my apartment through a 1x12

Wow. I really thought the new Pallbearer was going to be my hands-down record of the year. YOB's giving it a run for its money. "Marrow"...fuck.

You're good people, Whiskey.

Trey...I've been reading your book man. I love some of the concepts and can agree with a lot of them. I actually had a guy working for me, who was in in mid 20's and he fits so many of the concepts you have in your book.

On my side...its now 5 weeks of unemployment...done a couple of holidays with the family...written a script for short film and written a third of the feature film script...but now, I'm kinda ready to go back to work. Hoping i get something in the next few weeks.

Glad you are digging it, man! And that sounds like the correct way to spend five weeks of unemployment.

Dudes, need a small, affordable, preferrably tube amp for bedroom jamz. Epi Valve Junior? Blackstar HT 1? Micro Terror + cab? Other? Need it to be $150 or less.

If you want to use pedals, I wouldn't suggest the Blackstar. Mine loves od/boosts but doesn't like any other kind of dirt into the dirty channel. The clean is serviceable and takes fuzz well on the HT5, not sure how much 'clean' there is in the HT1 though. I had a Micro Terror for about two weeks. I liked it, but again, no headroom if you want to use the pedlulz. I would've kept it around, but GAS is a disease, and I can cop similar toanz at similar volumes with my Elements and Ampeg GVT15. Which brings me to the Ampeg. Buy one of those. It's not a very bright or bassy amp, but has the toanz, is as cleaner than you've ever experienced in a low wattage amp, and it has done well with exactly all of the pedals I've put through it. The caveat to this is that mine is an earlier MIK one, and according to the internet, there is some tonal (and build) differences between the MIK and MIC models.

This looks intriguing...not sure if it's a Laney in a box or a treble booster of some sort, but I'll be sure
to try it out at some point.

New Middian record?!

I'd be all behind that. Stupid fucking ass retard Midden band or whatever their name was that sued and put Middian into the dirt.

Lol at bedroom amps. Mines an old Kustom 15w bass combo with the bottom speaker cut off. I just run it into a 100 watt pa speaker. Anything past bedroom levels and the thing sounds like it wants to blow up

As far as bedroom amps go, I feel like a tone knob is necessary. If you can't turn up the volume to get more high end, you need a tone knob. YMMV.

I really really enjoyed mine when I had it. They're perfect for bedroom jams.

My hearing is already on the fritz from genetics; headphones make it even worse.
