A vision of the horizon
This song is heavily inspired by the song 'Visiting Friends' by Animal Collective - which I believe is in turn inspired by GAS. Pretty much a droning guitar with loads of weird noises added to it. Very happy with how it turned out!

The first cover I recorded on my new guitar! The video is pretty special to me - transferred from a VHS my uncle recorded. In the video is me, my sister, mum, dad, grandparents and uncle. - calmcmanus spiralscal.bandcamp.com/

Asobi Seksu - It's Too Late [cover]

A sad song from a very underrated shoegaze band. The video is made up from the 1974 film 'Un homme qui dort' - directed by Georges Perec & Bernard Queysanne. I cut the outro a bit short and added some spoken word stuff as couldn't really replicate the original build up! - calmcmanus spiralscal.bandcamp.com/

I probably recorded the guitars over a year ago but never finished it until recently. This song makes me really sad but I love it so much. Vid is all random internet archive stuff. - calmcmanus spiralscal.bandcamp.com/

When the band were still known as 'Viet Cong' - I just love this song and wanted to have a go at covering it. It's always tough working out how to translate a song like this to acoustic but am very happy with how it turned out! I found the video on internet archives, it's called 'Photographs and Circles of Summer'. - calmcmanus spiralscal.bandcamp.com

I know everyone knows loves Let it Enfold You and Still Searching (including me obviously) but I wanted to cover a song from this album which is underrated! One of my fave SF songs, has helped me a lot. Vid is all stuff I found from Internet Archives. - spiralscal.bandcamp.com/ calmcmanus

Random shoegazey song I've been working on - messing around with a load of guitar pedals. Kinda incomplete but didn't fancy adding any vocals so just threw in a film sample. I've got quite a few more songs similar to this which I might start uploading. spiralscal.bandcamp.com/track/sun-v2-2 - calmcmanus spiralscal.bandcamp.com/

Acoustic cover of 'Cody'. A lot of the video is from a recent visit to Edinburgh which seemed quite fitting for this song/band! - calmcmanus spiralscal.bandcamp.com/

Team Sleep - Your Skull Is Red [cover]
This is song needs to be on a vinyl album…. Great work again 😊 Please continue! Your covers and original are amazing 😁
Thanks so much!!
Insane
I like it
This is so beautiful 💜💜
U should check out the band Starflyer 59 if you don't know them already. I listened to All Under Heaven's cover of their song All She Knows and thought of your channel, would be sick if you covered it.
Thanks for the tip! I have deffo heard the name but have never listened to their stuff. I'll give it a listen for sure!
welcome back, always loved your whirr covers
amazing work, would you consider covering day wave songs ?
Thanks - I actually haven't heard of Day Wave but I will check them out!
Fuckin gorgeous m8 well done!
Oh yessssss! Love your covers, you've done some great stuff over the years Cal!
Thanks so much!! :)
all alone in peace
That's just beatiful
Beautiful
beautiful, thank you
The kind of video I didn't know I need. Love the liminal spaces and the backrooms feeling it gives. Excellent work!
love your stuff
man thanks for sharing ur art with the world, I hope your talent is seen and felt by more 🙏
Thanks for the kind words appreciate it! <3
i have descended
amazing, you wouldn’t mind if i sampled your cover for a beat would you? would much appreciate it🙏
yeah go for it!
fucking awesome
Goddamnnnnn! ❤
chords?
Hiya it's pretty simple just three chords for most the song: Drop C tuning: x022, x244, x466, Then for the bridge (starting at 2:35) 222, 666. Thanks :)
what are the tabs for this? also what tuning? P.S. i love this! i love when chino screams in this song gives me chills!
Check out the pinned comment I wrote them there :) Thanks for the kind words!
So crisp
Hi again could I ask what sort of strings etc you use your tone is really really beautiful
Yeah sure - I use D'Addario light gauge strings www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000OR2RNM?ref=nb_sb_ss_w_as-reorder-t1_k0_1_6&=&crid=2B6UPKEJQRUEO&=&sprefix=daddar I will only really change them if one breaks so I quite like that old 'dead' tone. This cover is a bit older so I would have used my SM57 for recording, I've got an akg c214 which I use now. Hope this helps man
@@calmcmanus9925 thanks man you're great, I'm v new to getting different tones out of guitars so I like to ask questions.Thanks for answering!
no worries dude happy to help
Sounds amazing brother
masterpiece
This is beautiful
this is beautiful. also you sound like elliott smith!
could you pls upload this acoustic instrumental
I probably wont upload just instrumentals but can send it to you if you like?
@@calmcmanus9925 maybe create a playlist with unlisted songs that aren't visible on the main page
@@XX-mu2gh nice one i'll let you know if i get round to doing that!
The extra guitar parts are awesome
amazing cover
sounds great!
Chords???
hey man check the pinned comment - wrote them there :)
Could you do "I wanted you to feel the same" (also by the Radio Dept.)?
Hey man thanks for the suggestion - Pet Grief is my fave radio dept album so good choice :) I will add it to my list when I get round to doing some more covers!
Great cover, do you have the chords (not the tabs)?
Thankyou - I'm not the best at theory or anything but i believe it's Ab + F for the intro. Then C + Eb for the verses. F, Db and Ab for the pre chorus bit. Think they're the only chords in the song :)
Underrated banger and you nailed it 🤘
mariaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Keep doing these covers cal! Well done
Thankyou so much I will try to! :)
This shit slap so hard bro!
I've listened to a few of your covers on this channel over the years, and I think that this might be my favourite so far! Great visuals too :)
This is amazing for a cover
<3
Super chill 🤙
damn this is beautiful, congrats
hey i LOVEEE this cover, could u go over the vocal effects u used please? :))
Thanks man! The only effects I use on vocals are the Valhalla Shimmer reverb, plus sometimes the standard delay plugin in Ableton :)
I want to know myself so bad it hurts
Hey
<3
nice
My favorite deftones song glad I got to listen to this version.
