@@nicolocla8983 Yeah! Kind of....wedding bell sounding? Maybe it was purposeful to add to the twisted romance theme of the song? That would be so cool to imagine.
@@nicolocla8983 Yeah I agree. It’s an interesting idea though. Like, some of the steam noises and stuff during the bridge make it sound like a thunderstorm. Its probably unintended but sounds even more awesome non the less.
never noticed before but there is still a clean electric guitar in the massive layers of distorted guitars. Seems to help with note definition while still being massive.
It's not really due to Vig. It was Andy Wallace and his SSL G series console that the raw tracks got mixed on. Compare his mix to Vig's early take in the Deluxe Edition and it's night and day. To Vig's credit, he tracked the band on a Neve which complimented Andy's punchy SSL. Andy is a master like no other. ✌
That's because it was (not acoustic, electric), the producer for Nevermind had him repeating the recording process by pretty much lying to him saying the takes weren't good enough then eventually put em all together
I don't often listen to Drain You. So it alway's hit's me how the guitar has that "narrative" feel to it. Sound's a bit like when you're a kid + the Barber(hopefully not Floyd?) tell's you to listen to the scissor's tell a tale. It complement's the lyrics perfectly, but tell's a story all on it's own!
I agree.... when it comes to Nevermind, most people bang on about Teen Spirit, In Bloom, Come as you are and Lithium. Great songs but also Drain You, Lounge Act and on a plain.
There’s a video out there where Butch Vig talks about overdubbing the guitar through Mesa Boogie amp and Fender Bassman and then layering them. The squeaks are from a rubber mouse Kurt brought to studio. Cool shit
You can with a. But of sound mixing also get a DS-2 Boss pedal for your guitar get one with humbuckers to get as close to the tone! And a small clone for the bridge part. I don’t really know what amp he uses though. Hope this helped
@@Iloveyou-xx8zc Funnily enough, I actually own a DS-2 and Kurt's Jaguar replica so I can get preety close to his live sound, but I was talking more about the mixing and the tone from the album, which is just incredible. Anyways, thanks for the response :).

I absolutely LOVE the clean tone intro!
When I ear Kurt's riff it's so nostalgic. I really appreciate Kurt for gift us with your geniality
when the distorted guitar comes in with the clean one is amazing, i never noticed they were playing at the same time

Which guitar was kurt use on this track.....jaguar or mustang?greetings from indonesia
probably jag or strat
A bunch of different guitars. Watch Butch Vig explain how they made the song.
most likely a jag or a strat, maybe even one of his funky mosrites or something. he didnt start heavily using mustangs until in utero
