That solo sound on the left is probably one of the best fuzz sounds Ive heard. Chefs kiss!!!!

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Thanks!

[@BockwinkleB]

Sounds like the first Desert Sessions album

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

That’s a good thing

[@BockwinkleB]

@@LivingroomGearDemos it sure is

[@PooNinja]

@@LivingroomGearDemos it is in my book too

[@silvioschmidt5346]

That was so interesting to watch. I hope the KZbin algorithm receives this well. More please!

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Thanks for checking it out man!

[@modernchair7692]

Nice one sir. A little 90’s STP as well. Great guitar tones !,

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

thanks!

[@alexmasters23]

great song and great vid. thanks for going through the plug-ins a bit and why you used them!

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

thanks for checking it out!

[@ZachWish]

This is awesome! Thanks so much for sharing. That lead part is super catchy! I use a very similar workflow in Logic and it always seems to get the job done. Final Rock Multipressor 👌

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Final Rock Multipressor 4 lyfe. Thanks for checking out!

[@jmurray911]

Very interesting to see how you built the song, which sounds great. Thanks!

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Thanks for checking out sir!

[@andrzejwysocki5991]

Awesome song!!! A lot of times I'm impressed with your composing skills :)

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

thanks man! 🙂

[@katielowen]

Your recording / mixing walkthrough videos are seriously my favorites. Thanks a million for making these! I’m having a hard time dialing in tones, recording and then getting everything to ‘sit’ in the mix properly. Would you ever share the raw tracks for one of these vids to download so we can try putting them in our DAW to learn from?

[@Hevvvyyy]

This is gonna be great, love ur videos!

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Thanks man! Enjoy!

[@youssefkasim7556]

I love these types of videos. Keep it up.

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

thanks, will do!

[@Chinaguitarsceptic]

Great track mate

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Thanks mate! Hope you’re well!

[@Chinaguitarsceptic]

@@LivingroomGearDemos yes thanks brother. Hope we get to hang out again soon.

[@AlbinoJedi]

That solo was tasty.

[@ArkaneFR]

Lesson 1 : - "Forget the scale on the melodies." - "What scale ?" - "Exactly. That's the point."

[@rubenpuglisi5334]

your listening face is amazing!

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

🥸

[@backlom]

Excellent. Thank you sir.

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Thank you!

[@lagrangeswr]

If you can make the same thing with a mastodon type song you will be a god ! I discovered this channel with the how to sound like mastodon and I’m a follower since! Thanks for your work

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Good idea!

[@yom31fr]

very very interesting. Really love the overall melody and the solo section in particular. Thanx ! Can we hear the final song somewhere ?

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

You heard the whole ting. Never made a full track of it

[@stevenashenjoyer]

Without context I would be fooled awesome work

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

thanks!

[@pfyitah]

Sounded more like Foo Fighters to me. I would buy it.

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

hmm really?

[@benjaminfowler4513]

No way lmao maybe crooked vultures possibly

[@Денис_Полунин]

Yeah, maybe crooked vultures, but not foo fighters definitely

[@6oundStudio]

Funny, i liked the demo tone more. Logic has some good ampsims, i guess

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

wuut

[@olivernorthguitar]

Good Job! Did QOTSA already ask to use the song for the next album? ;-D

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Thanks! Yes, I'm ghost writing the whole album actually 👻

[@KurtHatt]

Wow! Nice work, pretty accurate tone! Thanks for video. So you used some pedals for guitar parts? Not just only digital stuff. Can you say what plugins etc will help get QOTSA's guitar tone without using actual pedals?

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Yep I mention all the pedals. Not sure about pedal plugins honestly.

[@thatmanonapedal]

Good headphones. Also try m60: a revelation!

[@frusciantoso]

the second part sound like nirvana and the next part sound like the alain johannes style.

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

I'm ok with that!

[@frusciantoso]

@@LivingroomGearDemos me too. I like it

[@PooNinja]

Did you make this video in your garden? It looks like your outside, was this because others in your house were sleeping?

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Haha no it’s in my studio. But filmed at a weird angle.

[@markdavidofficial4274]

I mean it’s not off, but it’s not got that ‘sleaze’ that makes a QOTSA song

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

I would be surprised if I nailed it 100%. Thanks for checking it out man

[@honnaconna7312]

@@LivingroomGearDemos don’t thank him, he’s been a twat lol

[@SuperRbert]

no

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

no means yes, and yes means no

[@BockwinkleB]

2+2=5 these days too!

[@PooNinja]

2+2= the age I act as often as possible 😀

[@TriGrutt]

That would be superfly Awesome if Troy, Josh and QOTSA reacted to this video.
