My rendition of Fear Factory's "Human Shields", from the 'Archetype' album (with a small bonus of a faux-bit of "Ascension" I added at the very end, since I love that segue/transition and track in general). I enjoy this banger of a song but admittedly probably not the most exciting as a guitar-only performance, however, if you want to use this to practice/jam along with using your drums/bass/vox/synth stuff, or even do a full-fledged collab - it would certainly work, so go for it! (albeit a touch faster than the studio album pace, but still consistent and workable enough for sure.) This was one of those spur-of-the-moment 1am recordings (which are always fun...and no, this was not meant as a 'political statement' regarding current events by any means, I had actually recorded this in late September, which was well before the fighting in everyone's favorite sandbox broke out...just merely a matter of convenient timing, and war in general is relevant to any place and any era...it's the human condition.). Weirdly enough, this was a bit more challenging than it should have been, getting those clean notes to ring clearly consistently was surprisingly an issue. I arranged it my own way for an A-tuned (A D G C F A D) 7-string, put the clean notes on the lower frets/thinner strings, but then moved the distorted riffs to the thicker strings/upper frets to give them a bit more 'ooomph'...worked out pretty well for the most part. Ideally, I would have used a bit more chorus effect for the clean riffs, but couldn't since they would then become too 'wobbly' (think Leslie effect), and I didn't want that either, so I used as much as I could before it morphed into 'too wobbly'. Anyway, enjoy as always and thanks for watching!
