I was so excited when they remastered As The Palaces Burn. I love the original raw sound but it was a breath of fresh air to really be able to hear everything on that album.
BIG RRESPECT for that CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON poster... those films were a big part of my family when i was a child in the 70s.. and i introduced that film series to my own kids especially my oldest son who i raised as a single parent... those were the films we always would watch together when he was a young boy.. 💯💯💯💯🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I saw them when they toured right before that album dropped. By the time they went on, the room had emptied to about 20 people. Was really cool seeing them in that small venue and then move to playing stadiums a few years later.
Man.. you're the tone king🤘 .. here's one for you... Prong 'cleansing' album. Snap your fingers snap your neck etc. I saw an interview with Tommy Victor back in the day and he said they got that tone by running a Korg G1 through a Marshall 800. The G1 was the small red distortion processor that Dime used for the 'Trendkill' demos. I have one, great bit of kit for the year it came out (1995), used to run it through my Peavey 120w solid state and sounded VERY PanterA 🤘🤘🤘
The mixes of as the palaces burn were fine. It was the mastering process the first time that effed that albums sounds. They explain this with the remastered dvd.
The switch for different cabs is great and got to say, I like the Mustaine 30s cab. Thanks for all your efforts, you have great channel here people can learn a lot.
I still enjoy listening to most recent LoG music, but I really miss the style they had in "As the Palaces" and "Ashes", less bluesy and more technical-thrash. After "Sacrament" they've become a sort of Pantera's successors, imho.
Sweet sweet sound! I too love this album but I love Wrath just a tad more. I do like the SIT Willie Adler Signature strings. They are pretty inexpensive too. I’m still patiently waiting for your Nippon tutorial on here. Hopefully you do it soon. 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Completely agree with the dominion thing... I dont understand why the attraction for a les paul after creating such a beautiful thing like the dominion guitar is... I thought I heard in an interview that was a little bit to tricky the relationship between Mark and Jackson, so he just embrace the gibson family... maybe he will come with a signature model more ahead in time? Hope so! Amazing job recreating the tun btw Chopper! Will definitely copy some stuff you passed here! haha
A band that I respect so much even though it’s really not my cup of tea… any chance of a comparison video between the dsl and the studio series? Cheers!
everything you say about that album is true. production not good, they explained how they were in a rush because they had to do it all over in days. but the songs stand the test of time on their own. still some of my fave songs to jam ever.
Just a couple things.. 1. "New American Gospel" was their debut album (if you don't include "Burn the Priest"), not "As the Palaces Burn". 2. Only Mark boosted his mids on his amp. Willie did in fact use the traditional "V" shape on his graphic EQ. 3. For gating (and "boosting"), they both used DBX 266XL's (2 channel Comp/Gate) on both ends of their amps. The reason "As the Palaces Burn" sounds horrible is because Devin Townsend was hired to produce the album, and the airline lost his equipment (which was eventually found.. after the album was already recorded), leaving him with only his laptop to record the whole album (in the short timeframe the band was given). *If you want to hear some of Devin's best work as an engineer/producer, listen to 1998's "Rising" by Stuck Mojo. I know this is an older video, but I still hope this helps. P.S. For pickups (at the time), Mark used a Duncan "JB/Jazz" set, while Will used a Duncan "Distortion/'59" set. For strings, they both used 10-46, but replaced the 46 with a 48 (for Drop D tuning).
Love this videos! I know these are focused on tones from metal bands, but I would love an approach to the tone on Pulse Ultra's Headspace album since the guitar is chuggy AF. Just a suggestion of one of my favorite tones ever.
I guess it’s mainly because I’ve listened to it so much, but I prefer the original mix much more than the re-release. It’s so raw and angry sounding and a bit more unique.
I am not really familiar with Lamb of God's work, but I just listened to the song, and from what I can tell, their guitar tone has a little more hair, more scooped, and a little more modern. I think the DSL20 would have been a good match for that kind of tone, as the DSL20 has an overall softer, more modern EQ profile, especially if mic'd right.
The remastered version sounds better, but they really nailed their sound on the next album, that's for sure. Also, loved your birds tapping away in time at the start! How do they handle the noise?
It's hard to explain how I hated that tone It was the epitome of then emerging new wave of american metal (or whatever its called) After a decade of scooping suddenly an online horde formed the midds are king scooping is for newbs opinion. Suddenly Justice for all Demanufacture Pantera Burn My Eyes were labeled hollow and all was replaced with these no botom no top middletone that had no proper weight or agression to it I grew to like it later on Had to in the absence of anything I really craved but the scoop era is still king 🤴 Always will be

Agreed, it's a shame New American Gospel didn't get a similar remastering.
Undoubtedly the Mesa 4x12 is the LoG tone, but loved how the Mustaine w/ V30's sounded. Great playing mate, keep it up!
Another fantastic video! Great playing glad you’re back on here

Holy shit !!! Im a huge lamb of god fan and just came across this page. Wow man 🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 so nice to hear you playing guitar
Man.. you're the tone king🤘

Once again you done it again!
LoG content is always a hit in my house!
Forever my fav LOG guitar tone and album. Thanks
You really nailed that tone. Love that mid forward crunch, its unique in metal today.
04:18 it's not only cabs but also mic models/positions/blends... Changing these on the same cab model will also make a massive sound difference.
Always amazing videos. Thanks for putting these out!
Just awesome!

you have great channel here people can learn a lot.
One of my favorite bands of all time i got to see them in a small venue which was awesome. Your tone sounds amazing and nice job on the riffs too!
Perfect tone mate, nailed it.
I love that outro riff. Love early lamb of god, keep up the good work chopper
That ending ❤❤❤great work as usual
Thank you 😁
That Dave Mustaine 4x12 is amazing. Best cab I have purchased from two notes.
Agreed!
Always deliver the goods 🤘

“They sound like hit markers from CoD.” 😂😂😂😂
Love the Jacksons!
Would you be able to try an obituary tone, very unique guitar sound!!
Willie Adler is a genius . He’s riffs are so hard to play lol and mark , he’s the soul !!! Great combo !
Sweet sweet sound! I too love this album but I love Wrath just a tad more.
I do like the SIT Willie Adler Signature strings. They are pretty inexpensive too.

Nailed it, Lamby.

Great content!!!
It would be cool to see some more boss katana tones🤘
Can you do a lesson of as the palaces burn the actual song ?
Accurate as always
he played a LESPAUL on a lot of recordings, but id say GIBSON made him an offer he couldnt refuse
everything you say about that album is true.
production not good, they explained how they were in a rush because they had to do it all over in days.
but the songs stand the test of time on their own.

Mustaine cab \m/ and your own 1x12 are my favorite. Instant, there it is tone.
Love this videos! I know these are focused on tones from metal bands, but I would love an approach to the tone on Pulse Ultra's Headspace album since the guitar is chuggy AF. Just a suggestion of one of my favorite tones ever.
what guitar is the white lamb one on the wall?
wow
Can you try to get a ride the lightning tone on a evh amp I can’t get it with my amp
Awesome as always
I’d love to see you try to get bullet for my Valentine time on the Katana
when i was checking out the lamb of god and mesa related video... and i found this accent is so familiar.... you must be queenslander lol
Mr Chopper, where is the best place to find Lamb of god tab?
Ultimate guitar is usually pretty good
I liked the Mustaine 4x12 sim the best. 🤘
I guess it’s mainly because I’ve listened to it so much, but I prefer the original mix much more than the re-release. It’s so raw and angry sounding and a bit more unique.
"Ashes of the Wake" next plz.
I’ve done that one, I was going to do Sacrament
cabs > eq, cabs are so much better at getting a radically different sound than eqs, which start to sound weird when you make big adjustments.
I prefer the original release. The remaster kills my soul.
I am not really familiar with Lamb of God's work, but I just listened to the song, and from what I can tell, their guitar tone has a little more hair, more scooped, and a little more modern. I think the DSL20 would have been a good match for that kind of tone, as the DSL20 has an overall softer, more modern EQ profile, especially if mic'd right.
Is that Rhodes Jackson smaller than your other guitars, or is it just me?
It’s 25 1/2 scale full size
yo
That's very tasty 🍻🤘
!!!
The remastered version sounds better, but they really nailed their sound on the next album, that's for sure.
Also, loved your birds tapping away in time at the start! How do they handle the noise?
dude that beard is a chick magnet
string set by gauge
E0. ? , A 0.40 , D 0.?, G 0.?
B 0.135 , E 0.?
52 - 40 - 30 - 17 - 13.5 - 10
It's hard to explain how I hated that tone
It was the epitome of then emerging new wave of american metal (or whatever its called)
After a decade of scooping suddenly an online horde formed the midds are king scooping is for newbs opinion.
Suddenly Justice for all Demanufacture Pantera Burn My Eyes were labeled hollow and all was replaced with these no botom no top middletone that had no proper weight or agression to it
I grew to like it later on
Had to in the absence of anything I really craved
but the scoop era is still king 🤴
Always will be
