gain wash
I take listening to music very seriously, but this makes me move through music very slowly. Although I've been a fan of Deftones for years, I just started giving them a serious listen, and they almost personify exactly the kind of sound I'd like to produce in my own band. Most of the stuff I play and write currently is more bluesy and funky, which has been my home compositionally on the guitar for about a year and a half now... but the kind of heavy, high-gain sound wash that blankets your ears is the sound I've had in my head for years and years that I've been trying to approach. Some of the earlier stuff I have recorded from when I was 14 or 15 is very similar to this kind of sound, but my appreciation for modern music wasn't mature enough yet to traverse the musical avenues I wanted to. Most of the chord changes and progressions were very boring and nondescript.
Now that I am older and I have a much broader sense and understanding of music I find myself wanting to return to this sound in my compositions. This is also inspired by my finding the Depreciation Guild, which has been my favorite band for about a month now since I found them (I can't get their songs out of my head; a couple of the songs are just PERFECT). Although they have very distinct differences and moods the commonalities between these two bands is the kind of place I'd like to explore.
So like I'm really not so pretentious. It's just that when I am in a rush to write something I resort to being needlessly wordy. I swear. Don't hate me :(
