Can anyone tell me what Piggy used to get that spacey, echo-y opening guitar bit in the song "Phobos?" I know practically nothing about guitar, but I'm curious about the sound...it won't leave my head, and it gives me chills just thinking about it.

Ask H. He's nicked that effect and made two albums out of it.

Must be a Fender and a load of jazz cigarettes then?

If H used it to make 2 albums than it must be a couple cases of GUINESS EXTRA DARK.

Rev, if you haven't heard End Of Level Boss "Inside the Difference Engine" or "Prologue" you really need to add these albums to your collection... your brain and ears will thank you.

check out the "sounds" page

if H ain't gonna brag about his band because he's too humble, than I sure as hell will.

Thank you all!!!
H, I'll drive the truck around blasting EOLB!!!!

My girlfriend surprise the hell outta be by showing up at my job in a Duck costume with ballons and a brownie cake singing Happy Birthday. She's a nut, and I love her madly!!! I also finally got the Porcupine Tree Jananse 7 album cd box set that she bought a couple months ago for my b-day... it's SWEET!!!!

Her kids got me Guitar Hero 3 for the Wii, and I quickly realize I suck worse at the Wii guitar than I do with my Epiphone Special!!! I'm hoping GH3 is the one with Voivod, so it will make me wanna get good enough to have it come up in the list!!!
