Not reverse delay...
Recorded the old fashioned way on tape and then they reversed the tape.

Hmm, I didn't think about that...
Well the point is: YOU CAN GET THAT TONE WITH REVERSE DELAY!

Yes, but who on this god forsaken planet can I blame for their inexplicable popularity?

Yeah, that was him. But on the subject of Aen, which we weren't, I want to know how to get the sound in Aen's piece The Metallurgist from Alone in the Dark. Because I haven't succeeded and admit defeat

There are synth pads everywhere in Blonde Redhead's albums so....
I thinks there are some modulated reverb or delay on guitar here and there though...
love her voice

and those legs of coursehazelwould wrote:Any ideas on how Nels Cline gets his tone on Draw Breath "Attempted"? It's just the main guitar part. Kind of a warm throaty, woody type of tone. I'm assuming it's a klon set to slightly dirty.
Also, on Blonde Redhead "Dr. Strangelove" the main rhythm part has this sorta MBV reverse thing going on. Is that just a reverse reverb?

Ah yes. Coxon did fancy some rack gear.
But reversed tracks are all over Leisure. I bet he had to use reverse reverb live though.

Weave a spoon or knife through the guitar strings close to a fret. Under the E, Over the A, under the D, and so on. Flap it like a ruler on the desk, add long delay, in the case of metallurgist It was a Deluxe Memory Man. I was tuned to an open chord so it sounds nice.

How the fuck did they get that armageddon fuzz sound?
Which, of course nobody is going to tell me because the damn You Tube thing won't work AGAIN!
