This is Dragon, from Multitudes’ new album Twelve Branches, featuring bass by yours truly.

Im happiest with the bass sound on this of all our releases. I exclusively play fingerstyle, so getting the attack / high end to sound right when playing hardcore-inspired music is sometimes a trick. But I think it’s essential to the jazz-elements in our style — I think we got it to work on this album.

On this track, however, I use a Freeze pedal to simulate arco (and some crazy switching to get the instant feedback).

I am pleased to announce the digital release of the new album from Multitudes (that’s me on bass, Pat Foley on guitar, and Alex Lambert drumming), entitled Twelve Branches. This is the cover art by Jacob Feige with design by Greg Mihalko.

The concept was to keep it short and high energy, our broken take on SST-esque hardcore. Im really psyched about the results. It’s either 12 quick tracks, each with the character of a zodiac animal, or a 30-min progressive freakout, depending on how you listen to it. Recorded live with the inimitable Colin Marston, no overdubs, minor editing.

Listen to it here.
