but i've started listening to a lot of Enter Shikari stuff recently, and i was wondering if the nailbombs would be powerful enough to get this kind of sound:

if not, which pickups would be best (this is for going into my OLP musicman copy)

Cheers

Sound like Nailbomb, I'm aiming for the same kind of sound but more in the Killswitch Engage vein :P

yeah same sorta guitar as them, cept more synthy and with like dance beats and stuff in the background (another reason to fit a kaoss pad) ... and with less full-on drums

I didn't know about that shiraki band but I know I hate their singer :lol: too "MTV radio edit mumbo jumbo" for me :lol:

nah i don't think he's that bad, i'm not one for all the cookie-monster shouty stuff, and this band is one of the first to mix that with 'normal' lyrics, so they kinda clicked with me.

Plus i love the first riff in that video :D:D

The riffing sounded good and then the singer went and spoiled it all - don't like that boy-band singing style in my metal.

Nailbombs would be a good bet for that stuff, go for it.

:twisted:

kewl, i just wanted to make sure that the NB was powerful enough, as i've never really used high output pickups before

Wow, the band sounds really good. I can't stand the $%&#ing singing though.

Hmmm- not really my thing but the guitar tone was cool

Kaos pad being used a lot in the intro

I preferred the Emo Video

I know its been on here before but it makes me laugh

Nailbombs should do it and you should also be able to find a use for them with the style of stuff you normally play as well, so good call.
