Two really good takes here, I have never heard the song before either so it's interesting. I am going to have to mull this one over for a little while, strat, yours sounds mixed well but is really quiet so I had to crank everything up on my PC.
cool battle guys. Liked em both. i love tom morello's style. I liked em both a lot to be honest,, but as for voting,, i gave axe the edge here cause I liked his wammy solo that he did a bit more so. both are really cool renditions! wtg you 2!:icon_thum :rock: :rock:
thats better strat..i like your ideas in your version..very creative placement....solo I'm using a Boss Super-shifter...thanks for the comments..please vote:rock:
I'm going to say that Axe was MUCH closer to the original, but, sorry axe ol' buddy, I'm going to go with Strat on this one, I like his solo breaks and he did the scratchy thingy. I know he didn't use that wah, and used a flanger instead (which I'm not too fond of), but I believe he deserves the credit on the solo work for this one!
For a very short period of time I played in a ratm cover band. We didnt have a sing tho, so I'm pretty used to hearing this sort of ratm-cover
Enough about me, time to vote!
You both did an awesome job on this, and it was great to hear a bit of ratm.
Axe's version was great, and the solo rocked, but I found strats version to be even more to my liking. More agressive and a more powerful tone did it for me.
Thanks for voting everybody! Keep them comming. Like Axe said, this tune was a pisser, but it was fun trying to find a way to put it all together with out the vocal. The thing that is cool about Tom Morello, from RATM is that he never does the obvious. I think both Axe and I did this tune with Toms playing in mind. However, I was leaning a little more towards Ace Freely (you don't here that too often).:lol:
congrats strat...great job...this ones surely was different...cool match...mybe again sometime.....and thanks voters for taking the time
to tele....theres no trick...just scratch, rythmically and perfect timing...just cause i ndidnt do it, didnt mean that i dont know how....i did this song in a cover band a couple of times....its alot of work to do it perfect...your better off doing your own thing
:scratch: Sorry axe, but saying just scratch doesn't realy amount to much. Scratch what......your finernail on a single string, your pick on a single string, your pick on all six strings muted, a needle on a turntable. The only thing your answer left me scratchin was my head still wonderin how to do it.
well the rest is up to your ear!.....i mean its clearly a pick and one string but if you want to use your nail...go ahead....there is a slight harmonic that rings through the scratch to find the right posotioning but i didnt bother.....the timing is whats neccessary...the position doesnt really matter....dont be irked at me...i just tried to help
:woot: no problem axe.......I just wanted to find out a little more about how he did it or how it's done......never heard anyone do it before & it sounded pretty wild. I wasn't familiar with the tune you guys covered, so I didn't know if it was actually in there or somethin strat just added.
