Bro. Not all heros wear capes. Thank you uploader

Sounds we'd keep hearing for a decade: the guitars at 2:48 here are in Chucky vs Giant Tortoise ("Pico de Gallo").

the contrast between the distorted and clean guitars are amazing always so sudden!

I've been listening for over a decade now and have never heard it. These takes are so raw and unfiltered. The crackling of the mics just add to the aggressive, powerful sounds, and makes the harmonics in the first song (and the rest of Will Swan's beachy guitar) sound all-the-more soothing. Like a breath of fresh air in the middle of a turbulent stream

Sorry for crappy album cover qualitiy. the size of the image is 306x306 and no bigger size exists of this album cover. sorry guys, I hope you enjoyed this video though :)

If by "shitty" you mean the really "underground" tone the album has that makes it sound almost like you're listening to a band play live at a venue in someone's basement while a tiny moshpit is wailing away, then sure. But that's a good thing in my opinion. If I was the record label guy who first heard this demo I would IMMEDIATELY rush to sign them as they have 3 things that a mid 2000s alt/hard-core scene band would kill to have: 1) Incredibly unique guitar and vocals. Not just on a technical level either. They just OOZE style. 2) Fills a gap between more mainstream post hard-core bands marketable on hot topic t-shirts and underground hipster bands. 3) incredible gift for writing songs into stand alone experiences. Each song gives off its own vibe and they are all written in such a way that you could insert them into almost any other DGD album replacing song number 5 etc.. and it'd feel right at home. In short what I'm saying is: their "shitty demo" feel is the thing that makes them great. Their choice to focus on incredible technical instrumentals with soaring groovy vocals alongside a basement scene atmosphere instead of creating a perfectly chopped up auto tuned radio trackset is in my humble opinion the main reason they are so beloved to this day.
