I find that when it comes to the Indie Rock I like the songs with crunchy guitars. I don't know what the actual term for the effect is called but it's like the guitars are eating a big bowl of Cap'n Crunch cereal. The two big examples of this that I can think of are Stella Was A Diver And She Was Always Down by the Interpol and Three Or Four by New Pornographers. I've always been disappointed that I could never find any songs as crunchy as these ones. |

shoegaze guitar? i like the strokes myself. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the strokes are shoegaze now, are they |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think Shoegaze is more staticy and white noisy than crunchy. I haven't heard the Strokes, though. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
the strokes are punk rock n roll disco. im just saying i like the strokes..and aphex twin. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i associate the shoegazer with 'drone' or 'droning' more.. but yeah. dunno what you're after. |

Have you heard those songs? You can pick up on the crunch right away in Three Or Four. Maybe I should just be happy I have songs as crunchy as these ones and leave it at that. |

i just checked that song..not what i had in mind but maybe you should check out strokes..it's not all that different. |

just off the top of my head... |

It's a distortion pedal into a pitch shifter for generic crunch. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
The distortion on cannon ball, Creep, and Today are 3 tracks that stand out for me. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
no its a BOSS super mega vintage crunch pedal.. |
||||||||
|
|

Helmet - I Know. It doesn't get more spine-chillingly crunchy than that... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
im guessing trainsistor distortion, really high compression and low end. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

I use a Boss metal zone (sweepable mids) through a DBX compressor (with gate) to get my palm mutes to sound nice and crunchy. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
lol |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats pretty much exactly what i was trying to describe, minus the brand name. boos metal zone is an amazing sounding pedal, i wish id opted for that way back when instead of a flanger which turned out to be relatively subpar. |

a nice moment in music history: |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the new interpol album comes out tomorrow and the new new pornographers comes out next month -- this is the summer of crunchy guitars!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So, how about that new Smashing Pumpkins album? Eh? Eh? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
LOL |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It certainly contains the crunch. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the new interpol is great! it's exactly like all of their other albums! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Marshal heads and stacks are what most guitarists use. In other words. I think bands use tube heads and overdrive them instead of some magic pedal. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you can also overdrive the pres in some mixing desks. Thats what they did to get that distortion on the beatles' revolution. |
