The Beaches’ Guitar Pedals in Recording “Late Show”

Named after the area in Toronto where they grew up, The Beaches are just about ready to explode. Their debut album “Late Show” is a rippin' collection with sensible, catchy melodies and a '60s stoner voice that’s almost in Grace Slick territory. In 2016, the band's lead guitarist Kylie Miller…Click on the title for more

Subdecay Vector – Analog Preamp

Portland's Subdecay got us used to some pretty edgy effects with a "synthy" angle, so we weren't expecting their new release: a pedal dubbed as an "analog premp" called Vector. Scratching beyond the name's surface, you'll find that this digital pedal is actually a lot more than just a preamp, providing eleven…Click on the title for more

Giraffes? Giraffes! – Pedals & Creative Process

Western MA-based GIRAFFES? GIRAFFES! is one of those bands crafting deliciously head-spinning math-rock licks so labyrinthine, that you'd imagine it'd be tough for even a full four or five piece band to execute. So, when you hear that their music is the work of solely Joseph Andreoli (guitar) and Kenneth Topham (drums), it's…Click on the title for more
