      @@6oundStudio I think he means that the tone is more influenced by the amp/cab set-up than the pickup types. I am not sure how true this is, but I've heard recently that pickups do not really change the tone (disregarding passive v. active, or split-coil) and that some pickups out there are selling gimmicks. Either way, this dude's tone is killer and so is the band :)

For instance I have probably 4 or 5 songs called hypnotize on my phone that have nothing to do with each other, and I don't see why anyone would take issue with their "unoriginal" titles.
      I do think I'd side with you if someone blatantly named a song something JUST to garner more attention from a super popular song with the same name. That's lame and dumb and gross. In this case tho, 'Opiate' has a great deal to do with the subject of the song, ie being addicted to and unable to quit someone. It's also just a great, catchy title that fits the song perfectly.

    Nice...but it's no juice burst Qatsi. 😜 Seriously though...John must walk to some scattered internal rhythms...this kind of riffing makes my breathing and heart rate feel weird. It's a special ability! Like a riffing superpower!

    Love the music in this band.
    New singer needs to stop and let us hear it a little more often, turns me off their new stuff. Amazing musicians though
