bats brew - "The Travel song"

using the new iridium pedal.

Great track, very profesional sounding!

The vocals are great but a bit low in volume to my ears.

Bats, you never fail to deliver (I've probably said that before, so deja vu all over again?).
Beautifully done. I don't have the original, so I can't comment on how the unobtainium drive pedal improved things:
sounds nice though (I'm not a pedal guy, perhaps that has had a negative overall effect on my playing? but I digress)
EZDrummer on this one, which snare is that, nice solid pop to it methinks.

Overall I a bit of a Rush feel to this one, and I mean that in the very best way.

So two thumps up (I will not use that emoji I thought was a thumb yesterday, Yikes!)!!

this 'wall of guitar', is just one single strat humbucker, pushed slightly with a boost pedal, into the strymon Iridium pedal, playing thru a marshall super lead 100 watt head into a 4x12 closed back cab with celestion greenbacks. direct. 

the acoustic guitars only come in in the beginning, middle, and end.

the rest of it, is just the one guitar.

i like it!

[Douglas Kirby]

Cool song - this really rocks and it sounds great.  Nice job.

I really liked the vocal on this one - sounds good to my ears.

thanks for listening,

 I mixed the Vox more to showcase the guitar

Another home run Bats!  This arrangement, mix, and performance have a strong professional sound.  It does have your signature style and your great sounding vocals.  I agree with Tom above  - this song has a bit of a Rush feel but without the very busy lyrics that Rush sometimes delivers.

Really good stuff!!!

This is just so good.  Did you do that painting?  I like your style of painting as well as your music.
