New song from my band Raptor! FW14 and UR cabs! ROCK!

[Guitarjon]

Just like our debut album the track is heavy, melodic and it grooves!
For the guitar tracks I used my Jim Root telecasters.
My favorite amp model (Recto Red Modern) was used once again with the latest firmware.
I used an UR version of Alu's Mesa 4x12 SM57 04 IR with a little This One V30 blended in to add some mids.
The bass that we used was my Ibanez ATK 5-string through the Axe Fx II.

The track features both my and our bassist's vocals.

I hope you enjoy!

Great stuff! This track was a bit 'Creed-ish' (verse)... but the rest of the tracks remind me a bit of Karnivool meets AIC meets DT (mainly because that's what the guitar tone reminds me of).

Thanks everybody!
We are already recording writing our next batch of songs while our first album has only been out for a few months.
We just can't stop writing because it's too much fun.
Currently we are in the process of auditioning drummers and we hope to have a drummer by the end of next week.

Regarding the bass sound:
I use bass patches with 2 rows.
One row for the low compressed frequencies and one row for the distorted top end/mid.
Here is the patch.
You may have to change the input gain to get good gain reduction in the compressor and gain for the distorted row.
Use your ears to get this perfect!
