Cosmo57 Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4fLs2qfwio Now, don't get me wrong - I have a ton of respect for FuryMuso. But there is just too much fuzz/distortion on there... sounds kind of messy. I'll let it go, because I do like FuryMuso a lot But, I absolutely cannot stand the way the guitarist (that Rob guy) plays the chorus. I am well aware that Matt himself does this live, but for god's sake, people who play the Exo Politics chorus with a FUCK-TON of percussive strumming still piss me off. This, combined with the monolithic fuzz on the bass, makes a pretty messy show I know I'm being a complete arsehole, but playing the Exo Politics chorus with percussive strumming in between the chords is like garnishing a beautiful dish of finely prepared French cuisine with a tub of margarine.

I understand where you are coming from, but compared to the usual shit covers that are posted here that is an award winning performance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awYQVGeNU3I&feature=channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enemy Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I understand where you are coming from, but compared to the usual shit covers that are posted here that is an award winning performance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awYQVGeNU3I&feature=channel It sounds like this dude has worked out the notes by himself (hence the lack of chords). He's also adding his own little licks too. Both these points are more commendable than just shredding through a song. Sure, he's not great now. But he's got the right angle to be.

Doog Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 he'd have the right angle to be great if he was actually playing the right notes to start with, but a lot of the time he's just not. for a start he seems to base what he plays more on the vocal melody than the guitar part, and in this particular video just listen to what note he ends the chorus on - it's just plain wrong, no matter how much artistic licence people are prepared to give him credit for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Bee Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 yes better than before, but mainly because he's almost in tune. awful technique and tone as always though. and he hasn't invented the palm mute yet. Or the string bend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil. Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 someone should comment something like "It sounds like something's wrong with the intonation. Did you make the guitar yourself?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phill Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 actually there are quite a few videos of him 'showing off' his guitars... yeah but they are ones he's ripped people off on. not ones he's built for himself to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 off topic, but http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZMfxltTpDo you can sort of hear the notes choking a bit in the higher frets. also, 2:35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 It's not you - the neck on that thing looked ridiculous (along with everything else)  i'm sure it's doing it's job holding a fence together somewhere.   anyway  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG2uZ0zB0MI  MY EARS! he seems quite proud that it's the first cover of this song on youtube  at least do it properly i'll admit it's slightly better than his previous work...  lol @ description:  IDK how accurate these are...I learned it by hand)  Impressive!

Russell_A Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Hardly a cover, but i found this on his channel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBCuCqnOqlY Â 1) [1:31] Meanwhile, in America... 2) [1:50] Really? Sounds like Radiohead lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
