Death By Audio Exploding Head Echo Destroyer Brings Sonic Mayhem | Demo

[@DeadWhiteButterflies]

Oliver continues to be both a nutter and a hero. Genius.

[@Pandamasque]

2:32 I've seen many ways to simplify the Jaguar's complicated original circuit, but this is radical.

[@lockeempty4333]

lmao, him saying somebody took the bottom half of his guitar with such nonchalance, legend

[@Pandamasque]

@@lockeempty4333 happens all the time :D

[@terminalglimmer]

@@lockeempty4333 That's honestly what happened! I remember seeing them make a Facebook post around the time it happened-- somewhere in Europe, I think. He smashed the Jag, and someone took the bottom half, and the band was asking people to try and track it down because they had to glue it back together in the van otw the next show. Pretty hilarious kajdhaksj

[@rgeraldc80s]

5:36 he inserted a joke "more than you already have" with that hair piece

[@surfthechaos]

I feel like Oliver and Gareth Liddiard need to make music together. It would be the nuts noise album we need.

[@grandudetonesnob7107]

I agree! It would be appropriate to name that band Jaguar Shards.🤯

[@OIP_1]

they definitely have 'same person in parallel dimensions' vibes

[@kalebproductions9316]

The guitar god played real cool feedback and super sounding riffs. With his mild-mannered look-on. Yea he was truly hip.

[@chinmeysway]

! Nice

[@SonicRave1]

Nice reference, my favorite SY album. The lyric is Guitar Guy, not God.

[@gph2193]

Perfectly played to actually demo a pedal like that. You hit it every way conceivable.

[@teenslain]

I wish all guitar pedal reviews were like this, wonderful. 🙌

[@Duskmos]

I love the individual layers of feedback and blend control....also lol "works amazing on xylophone" 😂

[@asmi1916]

I had a headache but this video cleared it up! Thanks DBA!

[@tompoynton]

The drumstick caption made this video

[@StanleyGlockett]

Looks like Reverb found Andy’s replacement.

[@PedalExperiments]

😂😂😂😂

[@tite93]

Every guitar player is just a version of Andy

[@johnbriannafreeburn5146]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@savoirfaire8979]

Except the guitarist is also the CEO/President/Founder of Death by Audio.

[@j4mbs]

And 1/3 of A Place To Bury Strangers

[@AndyDemos]

Great job Oli 👍🏻Love me some multi-delay!

[@sassycat]

Damn, Fenders really are damn near bulletproof! Pairs perfectly with the pedal. 👍

[@RegularDude00]

Good that its oliver himself playing the demo. You dont buy DBA for blues licks. People buy dba for 7:12. They have a specific audience.

[@stagnatic]

This guy is, like, the anti-Andy.

[@mamusicaldeath]

i remember one time i brought my pedal board over to my guitarist house and it bumped on something and the Exploding Head light never went off. So I could never figure out if it was on or off unless I played… then one day the light went back to normal. Love how much of a beating Death by Audio pedals can take

[@Mindartcreativity]

8:15 sounds like an angry fleet of propeller-driven airplanes. Love the noise!

[@johnbriannafreeburn5146]

This demo made me smile, can’t do better than that .

[@RapidFlow_Shop]

Man life at Death by Audio looks haaaaarsh... and amazing!!! :D Big fan of your reverb ever since seeing it on Oora Music videos

[@neve4020]

Rooms? One of the best pedals around!!

[@RapidFlow_Shop]

@@neve4020 rooms rules!

[@neve4020]

That could be the coolest lookin guitar on earth !!! The pedal is fantastic 😮

[@ethermod307]

Oliver being a legend.

[@billypilgrim1]

That must sound amazing on a synth

[@klonewavverr2909]

check it out then! kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGLbdI1tncaMjKM

[@billypilgrim1]

@@klonewavverr2909 Good stuff, man! Thx I'll check the vid out

[@Dr-Stu]

Was the Fender 'half-Jag' part of their alternate reality series? I must've missed that run.

[@kajonx]

Love how Ollie mimics Andy's narration, but plays some insane noizzz :D

[@chadkelham5034]

Oliver is a true legend & genius. Now this is a DBA pedal to really cheese over. Well done.

[@ColeWheeler4Lyfe]

“Does a good job of simulating reverb type sounds..” SSSKROOOOONNNNKKKKKKK

[@joaogaspar9155]

Finally someone who knows how to demo a delay!

[@Bloodysambre]

U shred Oliver ! Best xylo inspiring player I've ever seen !

[@thisistheway5343]

ProMark Drum Stick! That's good consumer information right there.

[@joermnyc]

Opening guitar tone sounds like “Bela Lugosi’s Dead”.

[@schautamatic]

Starting at 6:24 sure got me thinking: why be sane when INSANE sounds a lot more fun? 😲😵‍💫🙀😀😀👍🏼👍🏼

[@danielhelderman5228]

NO ONE!, does a pedal demo like Oliver. We dont deserve him.

[@LightBranches]

That was some excellent Friday fuckery!

[@henningoppermann3647]

i had a bet with myself that it would take me 3 wild guesses tops to find a spot where there is abssolute mayhem, found it with two. Those DBA pedals are soooo weird and cool and musical in the weirdest way. as much as they enable you to make the most fun noise ever, they tend to make me play the coolest creative most beautiful melodies...

[@Brucaleeffo]

Finally a limited release, scalpers were getting bored to hoard and flip same old pedals on reverb

[@TheFlutecart]

Weird pedal. I like it, it reminds me an oilcan sound sometimes, the way it swirls with feedback.- killer demo. Oliver is officially a legend.

[@mikegiesbrecht309]

When I saw that toe poke into the frame, I swear a blue cheese odour started emanating from my phone.

[@BluesAndNoise]

Sold out! 😢 Glad I picked up a Ghost Delay when I did

[@blennyvisions8279]

that's the best pedal video i ever absorted

[@SynthoidSounds]

You're having way too much fun! So, I also want to have way too much fun with this (especially with the infinity), but alas, went to Reverb, it's not available there? I already have other triple delays, but this is definitely different. Any updates with this?

[@REMdonor]

the noise is the best part of the show

[@sixbladeknife44]

That poor Jag 😥

[@smokesystem90]

Andy: PTSD Edition

[@dls3939]

Oooh now that's a nice pedal

[@sync1216]

0:45 what is that? Where can I get one? And does it come with the sunglasses? 🤔😁

[@mutronium]

this guy is my hero

[@theghostofhornstull]

Gotta love death by audio❤

[@BRIGGS2710]

this confirms the 'musicians are weird' theory : )

[@dantheface2986]

That thumb nail tho

[@HorizonMelt]

He sounds like a young Larry David

[@FatalBrainError]

This is what happens when you force Andy to play with a real pick.

[@terminalglimmer]

Is it just me or did Ollie/the DBA team recreate Andy's set with their own stuff? jashkdkasjhdkasjdha

[@WilliamVoje]

Is this basically the Ghost Delay (the only DBA pedal I own. A pedal I love dearly), but with a blend for each of the delays?

[@WilliamVoje]

"To celebrate the unlucky 13th-anniversary edition of the A Place To Bury Strangers album of the same name, the EXPLODING HEAD pedal looks back at a key piece of gear from that era - the now legendary and unobtainable Ghost Delay. The EXPLODING HEAD is a triple delay dream maker/destroyer system in an ultra-small footprint." from website. Indeed it is!

[@hughmclachlan]

I can’t tell if I hate the pedal or hate his playing.

[@divinodayacap3313]

7:21, Oliver, FOR FREE???

[@BIZARBIES]

@ 7:15 That toe nail is funky. Wash up bro.

[@lukasm8990]

The lie started with “here’s my clean tone.”

[@noahpauley]

Surprised Oliver didn't use the half Jag for the beginning of the demo.

[@Madmax-rz5hz]

By the end you were sounding like Joe Meek's intro to Telstar

[@jobiazgarza9571]

that sawed off jag hurts my eyes. this pedal is not my thing but I like DBA attitude and creativity.

[@NyqWill95]

Blame the guy who stole the missing piece of the jag

[@jackroberts6938]

Well I'm sold.

[@kasperzak]

Killing mooon!!!

[@HoustonesTV]

Anybody knows a cheaper alterative to this crazy delay? It's also crazy expensive...

[@tomz1989]

May be a genius pedal. But I'm very practical and can't really picture it into band mix.

[@Matt_Turner]

It’s sold out already? Dang

[@NuwandaSM]

Can't be more straightforward

[@kasperzak]

Technically Oliver only plays 60% of his Jaguar

[@Mecler]

So much chaos!

[@thirdwavefinance8154]

5/8ths guitar * 3 delay = 🦄🧠

[@charlesvick5]

I feel like if I can spend an hour playing with a Korg Monotron Delay then I have to get this thing and throw my subharmonicon on it.

[@lobster4501]

Please listen to the 1973 Santana album Japanese pressing… Lotus… Sounds just like this mayhem

[@BIZARBIES]

That album is amazing. The second disc is dang near perfect. So much echoplex on that album.

[@stuartchapman5171]

I'm have to try it. Abraxas is good but pedestrian compared to this.

[@lukasm8990]

You ever see someone with more 2 or a few your pedals on the same pedal board? That’s bc they sounds like crap when there’s more than one of your brand on a board

[@NyqWill95]

Ok we get it. Quit whining lmao

[@effyiew7318]

How much was the pedal going for?

[@uuno.turhapuro]

oh man, next guy and next tuned guitar please.

[@delongpredannon]

jesus i didnt need a new delay but now i really need a new delay.

[@TrueTempleDog]

DAMN that's filthy.

[@TheCanadianDreamEvergreen]

Where’s Andy

[@Johnny-ge7on]

very cool

[@anthonywendt5834]

If nick cage had an estranged brother

[@melvined]

I don’t even want to know how much it costs. Looks awesome though!

[@RocknJazzer]

only 225, not bad

[@soundpainter2590]

@@RocknJazzer Most oof the COST is NYC Insane Rent $$

[@bongusdongus2137]

225 for a delay pedal, double LP, and a bunch of trinkets is pretty sweet actually. A gatefold double LP these days will often run you $35-50 on its own.

[@paulj0557tonehead]

They should have a pre-delay control
