I watch this video once every couple of weeks. The Octonaut/Snow Day Delay Jam is hands down one of the best things that JHS has put out for us to witness. Thanks.
I am 100% in favour of Joshua as the voice of jams, reading poetry and freestyling tributes to Robert Keeley. I would go and see this band for sure. I'm very happy with the show's continuing descent into freestyle improv surrealism. It's gone from a thing I enjoy every week to a real highlight. Keep it up.
Totally agree, the show has now evolved into a freeform creative vehicle for everyone, with great pedal showcases, the regular features and the new ideas like the poetry jams. Who knows where it might go?
Nick’s fill at 28:30 was so slick. I had to rewind that several times. I have to assume that if everyone hadn’t muted their mics we would have heard everyone in the room saying “ohhhhhhhh!” At that moment.
RECORD TIME SUGGESTION: HUM’s “You’d Prefer An Astronaut” Please check it out if you haven’t. This album takes “shoegaze” and smashes it with walls of trippy driven guitars, backed by unique, jaw dropping, drums. It a perfect use of the “shades of colors” sound, and “beautiful quiet to heavy” formula. It blows me away, thinking that, after 20 something years of listening to this album, Im still hearing these new little sound and textures. To this day, they’re still so influential to me and countless others..
Dang, that sounds epic. Thanks for the suggestion, internet stranger. I look forward to picking up a copy and giving it a spin this weekend in your honor.
Josh is totally the right age to be a Hum fan. Great band. I was once playing a gig about a half of a block away from Hum’s gig, when they were releasing the album after this. Yeah, my show was terrible …
The Aquabats jam might be my favorite so far. And I’m so happy that Joshua is part of the jams recently. He is the Jim Morrison or Jack Kerouac voice the jams have been missing. Don’t stop! And Josh, I appreciate his pen and pencil choices. Not everyone can be a Smokejumper P.S. The show just keeps getting better and better. I rarely get to catch it live, but watching it is the first thing I do when I get home from work every Wednesday. Thanks to all of you, I look forward to it every week. Well done, good people!
Love the poetry readings Joshua!!! And I care about your pencils/pens... I'm a bit obsessed too. These poetry reading jams remind me so much of the Jim Morrison/Doors "An American Prayer" (listen to "Ghost Song" if you like this sort of stuff). Jim's poetry is awesome. THANKS JOSHUA!!!
@@jhspedals Yes! Sakura Pigma Micron 03 I have tons of them in different thicknesses and a few colors. Great fine-tip ink pens for writing or doodling! And yes, please do tell big Josh. Btw, favorite pencil for writing music... the Berol Electronic Scorer 350 Professor in music school made us write our scores with them... super soft and dark; you'll never write with a No. 2 again. OK I'm just as weird as you lol
FUN FACT! In the late 90s, I saw the Aquabats open for Primus and Blink 182 in Rochester NY. It was billed as the Sno-Core Tour. This was the tour where a young Travis Barker gave up his superhero costume and joined Blink 182 right after this tour. I highly recommend you listen to the classic "Cat w Two Heads" when the Aqubats we're still ska.
I can appreciate that Josh had to take the time out to rant about branding, he's absolutely right. You don't even have to have a good product as long as you can build a brand. Make or break kind of stuff right there. Also, mad props to Nick on that Fresh Clips ad, probably the most badass video I've seen in a while. Also, since I'm pretty sure Joshua is the one who reads the comments, DOOM METAL and I appreciate your appreciation for great writing utensils. I personally use Pigma Microns because I'm cheap and sometimes I like to pretend like I'm an illustrator. Keep up the great work amigo!
I swear to GOD! This is the best episode of the JHS show. Put it in the archive. The Jamz, The memeable faces, the glitches, the pedals, the best. You guys have been good from the start, and hovering around great for a long whlie, but this episode was great. Like, within the context of human history great. Josh^2 is gonna need some vocal effects to help him cut a bit with the poetry... which is an issue I'd contemplated at great length, but couldn't find a solution to: JHS band needed vocals. Couldn't figure it out... and now organically? Can it be? You've figured it out? Anyway, the second Josh needs some filtering, and drive on his voice to find his niche in the mix. Maybe something to give him some space. I'm sure y'all will figure it out. God Bless!
I actually really liked the way it was in the mix, not drowned out but also not right up front and present. Gave a cool vibe, reminded me of a scene in the Doors movie
I‘ve only arrived at the first jam and I had to listen/watch twice! So so beautiful. Very La Dispute-esque! Might listen a third time. My mind is blown away!
I love your shows and everyone who is involved!!! Thanks for all of your hard work and tomfoolery, it really makes you so much better than the rest! Can’t wait to start my own JHS collection, cheers all!!!
10:25 - 13:30 This is one of the main reasons I’m such a big fan of JHS. You guys have incredible chemistry with one another, both socially and musically. The pedals you make are amazing and I love how passionate you all are about the work of other pedal makers as well! Your passion is contagious!
The JHS show has been helping me get through some rough nights lately. I bought the Pulp n' Peel which is supposed to come tomorrow and I can't wait! KC pride, yo.
Bought a jhs reverb pedal not too long ago and I love it, the pre delay is super nice. Just found the channel and I love it too lol. Keep up the great work guys
The song played for the Aquabats pedal was appropriate. Their sound tends to be a magical blend of new wave, surf, and ska and that detective jam was perfect for it. Also, I think the pedals have just started being shipped out. They took preorders and I just recently got notification that mine has shipped.
I'm floored that Josh is not aware of the myriad of Boss Slow Gear copies. I bought my OG Slow Gear in OKC in the mid-90's. Since then I've had Gauyatone, Pigtronix and Mooer copies (to name a few). **Special note:: The Pigtronix version (the Philosopher King) includes a compressor and outputs CV values, even when bypassed....great for CV controlled filter pedals. Melekko also make a great volume swell/ADSR pedal.
All the jams were very cool , great pedals that first jam reminded me of something one might hear as a soundtrack for a scary movie .......rocking it !
I was absolutely rocking out to this episode... SICK JAMS/Poetry guys! Maybe it's the pedals or maybe this is evidence that Addison final listened to OK Computer.
Also, Muji.38mm pens are my standard--haven't found a .28 that isn't scratchy and miserable. Finally--please release the Robert anthem as a single, because I need a soundtrack to hype up the hard days!
So great !you know it would be nice that poetry gets really included in your jams ( i mean soundwise) and that there could be a second Line mic with vocal fx pedal for Joshua ! Thanks for the good time !
The absolute best thing about mowing lawns is Listening to music....my intro to the pink Floyd album animals...I was mowing my then mother inlaw's property....also back then 1988 we had Walkman's sooooo I put in pink Floyd animals on cassette....I instantly became a fan. It was the summer of animals as I call it..
Loved that Jamtopus.......You've really got something there with the poetry reading. If you work on tone, word phrasing, tactical pauses, etc. that will be ridiculously over the top good.
Joshua’s writing instruments are part of the show. Many of us are into fine pens and pencils and it is good to know what the intellectual member of the team is currently enjoying.
Ok, as far as I’m aware, you guys have inadvertently created a new genre : random jams with loud angry poetry. I can’t think of a snazzy name to accompany it but please keep doing it because I’m here for it (I’m well aware that this genre probably already exists…)
5:11 I care about mechanical pencils. Thank you Joshua. I come for the pedals, but stay for the pencils. Who wants to rotate the whole pencil and have the clip resting against your hand. That's just not comfortable. I appreciate that you appreciate 0.5 mm pencils.
Great episode guys (as usual). I do have a question about the Love-Vongon Onset auto swell (which did sound great). You guys acted as if this was something completely new. But we have a bunch of auto-swell pedals that cost way less than the $299 that this one lists for. Is this one so much better? How?
When turtles go down... guy ah ... that was the best jam yet! Those boxes are like baseball cards... won't be able to give those away in 20 yrs... I think you have accomplished your goal... wtf is not a clone lol... Eventually I'll get a pulp and p and a color box... I love your channel! You need bass switches on all your boxes... make all the Tim escobedo pedals and have a show about them... your show kicks ass!
In 1969, I bought a used Silvertome Twin Twelve (1484) for $50. I loved that amp and rode it hard right up to 1990. Wish I still had it. I'm assuming you've had a good experience with one as well, as you dedicated a pedal to it... The "Twin Twelve" V1 and V2. Any plans for a V3 or a reissue?
Could you please do a documentary on the Rockman tone chase sort of like your Klon video? People are coming around again looking for this sound. I think it would be a hit! Thanks.
Went to go get the Meadowsweet soon as I heard your jam and now it’s sold out :) Good job guys! Love to see some success and it’s a great pedal. I guess I’ll have to wait and get the new Maestro chorus for now 🤘
What's with bass face? Isn't the bassist supposed to stand back, in the shadows, looking as if they need to be somewhere else right now? Then check out Juna Serita and Mohini Dey...Bass face extraordinaire.
The jam on the Sensation Overdrive could literally be cut with a vocal and go straight to radio. Austin and Nick made a straight to radio groove with Josh suggesting melodies and direction. The boys fell Bass Akwards into Musical Genius. 39:30
Okay I know I'm talking too much but I'm really excited about this video that song was freaking awesome I really did y'all's Channel man it's pretty cool more closer to my heart you know

22:30 - Gaia Drive
24:50 - Meadow Sweet Chrous
37:10 - Sensation Overdrive
46:00 - Aqua Bats Falcon Drive
56:00 - Land Auto Swell
The talking and interaction is what makes this channel so entertaining.
You guys are a legitimately good rock band. These last few episodes have had some seriously great jams.
Greetings from the furure...loving these tones and riffs.
Ok, Joshua definitely needs some vocal pedal effects for his poetry. He’s earned them!
Fereal
Like a Voice Tech lol

They released another amazing album in 2022 called Inlet. So good.

Three Cups on His Snare was a monster hit in an alternate universe. Sadly, I'm here.

Joshua has the perfect voice for reading poetry over the jams
Great episode. The poetry is the cherry on top that this hot fudge brownie sundae didn't know it needed... Great pedals, stellar jams.
Lol, thanks!
Joshua's personality continues to shine through more and more. Thats the only reason I watch.
I swear to GOD! This is the best episode of the JHS show. Put it in the archive. The Jamz, The memeable faces, the glitches, the pedals, the best.

God Bless!
I was thinking the same thing about the vocal effects when I watched this earlier!
This episode was a lot of unnecessary bs. I don’t need expensive pens or poetry read to me nor do I need to watch you eat.
Josh is a dude.
We got some stuff from Flamma for my voice, but it was acting up. We'll figure something out eventually.
I actually really liked the way it was in the mix, not drowned out but also not right up front and present. Gave a cool vibe, reminded me of a scene in the Doors movie
This episode had everything, Klon Clones, Chorus, poetry, jams, and Rhett.
Worked 4 ever today... Listening to escape, thx for the show
“Like” for the Fresh Clips ad. That’s the content we’re here for.
Wonderful episode, gents. Thanks to you all.
Nick with the Aquabats cap and goggles reveal warmed my entire heart up 💙🦇
Really awesome jams guys. Love the poetry.
I‘ve only arrived at the first jam and I had to listen/watch twice! So so beautiful. Very La Dispute-esque! Might listen a third time. My mind is blown away!
I loved the way you set this video up thanks for all the info, that snow day delay! and Keeley on the Moon! Great video JHS and Team!
I love your shows and everyone who is involved!!! Thanks for all of your hard work and tomfoolery, it really makes you so much better than the rest!
Can’t wait to start my own JHS collection, cheers all!!!

Bought a jhs reverb pedal not too long ago and I love it, the pre delay is super nice. Just found the channel and I love it too lol. Keep up the great work guys
the poetry jam at 19:55 felt like Cake and I LOVE IT
That Aquabat’s jam kind of had Miles Davis “So What” meets Soul Coughing “Sugar Free Jazz” vibe, Fanfuckingtastic!
Josh.. never stop demoing .. that seche was aces !!! Top draw team .. loved the poetry over the top
The song played for the Aquabats pedal was appropriate. Their sound tends to be a magical blend of new wave, surf, and ska and that detective jam was perfect for it. Also, I think the pedals have just started being shipped out. They took preorders and I just recently got notification that mine has shipped.
That auto swell peddle sounds like a dream. It needs to be on my grindcore board
Listen, I don't know if this poetry slam stuff is here to stay...but I'm totally here for it!!
The accompaniment to the “Daniel Lanois” piece was particularly well done.
I'm floored that Josh is not aware of the myriad of Boss Slow Gear copies. I bought my OG Slow Gear in OKC in the mid-90's. Since then I've had Gauyatone, Pigtronix and Mooer copies (to name a few). **Special note:: The Pigtronix version (the Philosopher King) includes a compressor and outputs CV values, even when bypassed....great for CV controlled filter pedals.

Fantastic playing guys. Cheers from Portugal.
That first jam was my favorite one yet. It had an example what each your strengths are, even the poem was the most 🔥 one yet. 🤘🤘🤘
That meadowsweet sounds amazing! Would love that bend knob with expression pedal control.
WOW, Poetry over jams might be my new favorite thing!
I wish these guys would make an album!! Seeing how theyve totally bit my style without the ever hearing it,,,i think it would be bad ass
Some of the best music y’all have ever done. Love the poetry reading. My kinda of genre. Great Pedals! Daughter loved it!!
🎸✌🏻🤟👽
Nicks drums always sound so good
All the jams were very cool , great pedals that first jam reminded me of something one might hear as a soundtrack for a scary movie .......rocking it !
I was absolutely rocking out to this episode... SICK JAMS/Poetry guys! Maybe it's the pedals or maybe this is evidence that Addison final listened to OK Computer.
Honestly Joshua’s spoken word poetry over the jams makes them into complete songs
Also, Muji.38mm pens are my standard--haven't found a .28 that isn't scratchy and miserable. Finally--please release the Robert anthem as a single, because I need a soundtrack to hype up the hard days!
Muji!!! They're so good.
Joshua reading that poem during the first jam was SO. DOPE.
Make that a thing!
46:30 this is One of the many reasons why I Love this Channel the humor just fits soo perfect 😂
The poetry jam disturbed the cat on the windowsill.
You can use that as a title of your book.
That was a really cool poetry jam
The Aqua Bats are super rad.
So great !you know it would be nice that poetry gets really included in your jams ( i mean soundwise) and that there could be a second Line mic with vocal fx pedal for Joshua !
Thanks for the good time !

Does the addition of poetry to the jams remind anyone else of mewithoutyou? Loving it.
Joshua’s writing instruments are part of the show. Many of us are into fine pens and pencils and it is good to know what the intellectual member of the team is currently enjoying.
Thank you. I'm showing Josh this comment right now. lol
43:50 - Robert Keeley Anthem, known simply as "Robert".
Here for the jams, poetry is fantastic :)))
Ok, as far as I’m aware, you guys have inadvertently created a new genre : random jams with loud angry poetry. I can’t think of a snazzy name to accompany it but please keep doing it because I’m here for it

This is amazing. Thank you for your support.
Robert Keeley is the best product to come out of Oklahoma in the history of ever.
There's so many builders you need to do a "what's the deal with" episode Meris, Land Devices, etc. DO IT!
That was great convo and playing

But we have a bunch of auto-swell pedals that cost way less than the $299 that this one lists for. Is this one so much better? How?
Yes you need to watch sling blade!
Onset...just ordered the pedal..OMG...love it!
Should Josh stop making pedals and start creating fantastic music ? I don’t know, probably I want him to do both.
He is the most under/rated player in the gear space.
Really creative and expressive.
Both
I'd totally buy the JHS best of album... better than most of the music coming out these days lol
Josh love his bicycles too much to stop with the pedals.
@@MrScrofulous I'm with you on this 100%
Pencil ordered. Thanks for the....tip.
Good episode! Music was hot. I don't know how I'd feel having a frosty the snowman pedal on my board. Good sounding pedal though!
When turtles go down... guy ah ... that was the best jam yet! Those boxes are like baseball cards... won't be able to give those away in 20 yrs...

58:05 - reminiscent of the Digitech Space Station. Wonderful sounds. Also, great soles Mr Scott.
Could you please do a documentary on the Rockman tone chase sort of like your Klon video? People are coming around again looking for this sound.
I think it would be a hit!
Thanks.
First tune sounds like it’s front Blade Runner. Love it
I’m totally buying one of those pencils.
Went to go get the Meadowsweet soon as I heard your jam and now it’s sold out :) Good job guys! Love to see some success and it’s a great pedal. I guess I’ll have to wait and get the new Maestro chorus for now 🤘
Fwiw they restock fairly quickly.
Octonaut Hyperdrive is a top 10 pedal name with a top 10 graphic
4:15 Steve Vai’s Flex-able.
My yard circa 1990 so on cassette, of course.
A side front yard
B side back yard.
Perfect fit and yup, burned in 😍
Nice t-shirt Nick. Very refreshing!
Oh man. I had throwbacks of RHCP One Hot Minute album on one of those jams.
That first jam was fucking epic!
Oh boy, these jams are just incredible.
Strong Lulu vibes again, in a good way.
Also reminiscent of Eddie Vedder on
Push Me/Pull Me from Yield.
You absolutely need to make a pedal for Addison called the bass face
YESSSSSS
What's with bass face? Isn't the bassist supposed to stand back, in the shadows, looking as if they need to be somewhere else right now? Then check out Juna Serita and Mohini Dey...Bass face extraordinaire.
The jam on the Sensation Overdrive could literally be cut with a vocal and go straight to radio. Austin and Nick made a straight to radio groove with Josh suggesting melodies and direction. The boys fell Bass Akwards into Musical Genius. 39:30
Okay I know I'm talking too much but I'm really excited about this video that song was freaking awesome I really did y'all's Channel man it's pretty cool more closer to my heart you know
🖤🖤🖤
When Joshua reads poetry over the music it sounds like the band Dry Cleaning.
That first jam was Odins fire 🔥
"3 Cups On His Snare" had a real They Might Be Giants vibe to it.
This episode demands that Dweezil Zappa be a guest in the very near future 😎
26:11 Very accurate descriptions. No misinformation detected here. lol
I just want to point out that before Blink 182 Travis Barker was in the Aquabats. He was known as "Baron Von Tito".
The groan at the bringing forth of the Gaia was one of the funniest things I've heard on this show.
Lol!
44:33 - in hindsight, an much improved name to the working title 'Jeramiah'.
Mechanical pencil prices just sky rocketed!
😂
