They have recently purchased a Thermionic Culture – Culture Vulture stereo valve distortion unit. “ We’re in the middle of writing our next album and it’s been interesting experimenting with the Vulture in this process, it’s taking us in some new directions and we’ve been mainly using it on bass sounds. We tried using some plug-ins to do this job but we soon discovered that they weren’t going to cut it for us. It’s also pretty cool to use on sub mixes and main mixes to get an analog vibe to the mix.”
