New Yorkers and that loud feedback noise

So the most ambitious project we've undertaken so far is a 5 piece recording of Reptilia by those fantastic lads from New Yeork, The Strokes. I can't even begin to guess how many hours I've sunk in mixing this thing alone, not even to mention how long the guys and myself have spend playing it.
Good thing It's such a great fucking song.

The process of it was so backwards It's embarrassing to think about it now. Suffice it to say, don't try and record a rock song with three guitars WITHOUT a drummer.

After uncountable amounts of retakes, and section overdubs, we are getting really close to a finished project, and myself and Zack just spent a late night "working out the kinks" session that proved very fruitful. Once the song gets the stamp of approval I'll go over some of the weird stuff we subjected ourself to to commit this thing to virtual tape. Until then, enjoy this picture of the man himself, right before the fortunate lightbulb moment.
