- This song belongs to Russian Circles -
Hey everyone! Hope you guys dig this cover for 'Deficit' by the awesome 3 piece band Russian Circles, you can find this song on their latest album; Memorial - Which is considered between the best 50 metal albums of 2013.
It's all about groove. These guys are not about the technical/riffy/fast/complex/überheavy stuff, even so they're awesome musicians, period. And that's why i loved their music since the first time i listened to them. Lots of feeling, evolving dynamics, natural, smart, yet simple.
I wish i had my looper at hand, so i could cover some other songs though.
The tuning i used there might be a complete nonsense but it worked. Mr Sullivan tends to change his tunings around pretty much so i just adjusted the guitar to work with the song.
B - F# - B - E - A# - D# So its basically a Drop B with the two top weird strings but sticking to the normal Drop B should work too.
Things used:
Fender Tele + SD JB 59 Bridge & Stock Neck pup.
Tuner - EHX Memory Toy - Maxon OD808 - To amp - Sm57 - Neve 5032 - PT LE 8.
Its kind of hard to match Sullivan's tone :/

Excellent cover!!!!!
That drop is fuckin amazing!!
They're my favorite band! AMAZING job. :D
This is a great cover man, I love how you took the time to incorporate the tone and effect into the cover
Hey! Thank you for the kind words, yeah it took me a bit of reading and mostly hearing and matching. It's not that perfect, but its in the ballpark!
This is perfect!
Thank you man! :D Glad you liked it! Awesome band!
Espectacular! excelente cover de excelente banda!
Awesome!...
Thanks man :3!!
Very well done. What tuning is this played in?
You nailed it, 10/10
Thank you man! :D
🔥
Freakin spot on. Good shit man
Yo Brad! Thank you bro for the kind words, I think I'll drop another one from them soon! Best!
yeah, playback is the one, where you mimic every note, nuance, and rhythm. But when you could just as well play it your self perfectly and---- oh---- thats what you did. OK AWESOME MAN!
Thanks a lot buddy! That's what happens when we play music we love right!!? :D /m/
Perfect!
do you remember which settings you had on your memory toy ? it sounds very great !
Amazing! Awesome song :)
Can you give me your amp settings please? Really good tone.

Thanks for your kind comment! - As for the amp settings, sure! On the DT30 amp i used the Tiny Terror channel (the Fat channel sounded a bit too beefy for me), with the volume pushed fairly hard around 4 o'clock. The tone knob around 2 o'clock, and the gain knob around 9 or 10 o'clock. I used a Maxon Od808 in front of the amp, full volume, tone around 1 o'clock, drive around 11 o'clock. The trick is to find that spot were the sound 'breaks' up, giving you that crunchy sound. Remember that Mike uses plenty of overdrives to push the amp and even to get his distorted tones. So go on, and try it out! :D
[ On the video, you can see the amps knobs at high resolution too ;) ]
speedlick Thanks! Good description :D I know, Mike has a lot of OD pedals indeed! Just bought myself an Orange TH100, so now I'm trying to find a good tone for my favorite bands! Thanks again!
remcovangestel Well you've got yourself a monster amp!! I'm sure you'll get the tones you love out it with ease! ^_^
Just watching this again: What is your secret to the fast picking? Do you use thin or thick picks? Is it more of a wrist movement or do you use your whole forearm? Cheers
Hello friend! :D Thank you for watching, i hope you liked it! - Well i'm not a particularly polished-picking kind of player, i'm rather a more heavy hand player, thus a bit slow on my wrists/fingers. So i can tell you, most of the movement on this cover is coming for my forearm. But you should look after for what suits your personal liking and what feels comfortable. Thank you!
thin picks make it harder IMO. Thicker pick gives you more control with faster picking.
This is fuckin' incredible!
By the way, what's the tuning? I know it's drop B, but I remember Brian saying something about it being really weird.
Hey man! Well yeah i also read that he uses to experiment with tunings a lot. It's been a while since i did this cover and don't remember that much, but like i said on the video description "B - F# - B - E - A# - D# So its basically a Drop B with the two top weird strings but sticking to the normal Drop B should work too" - I remember that this tuning pretty much worked with the song. But it might not work for some others on the album though. You should try it! :3
surprising :)
I'm glad! ^_^
Can u give us tabs
Life aint fair ,i write better shit. I love the guys tho :P Ye lets get the hate and "you suck going" ;)
