Rig Rundown - Spirit Adrift
Музыка
Guitarist Nate Garrett earned his stripes in the Arkansas metal scene alongside sludgy contemporaries Pallbearer and Rwake. He toured the States and beyond with Gatecreeper and Take Over and Destroy. He always played the support role. (Garrett claims in a Consequence of Sound interview to have played in 29 bands before Spirit Adrift.) He hammered away on his 6-string in the shadows, bringing to life other people’s visions. It was time for his own story to be told. So, in the mid 2010s, he started Spirit Adrift as a personal creative space.
Garrett admits that when he started Spirit Adrift as a personal endeavor two things never entered his mind. First, he never planned on playing gigs. Then, he went full Spector and layered dozens of guitars, bass parts, and synth colors in his 2016 debut, Chained to Oblivion, making it nearly impossible to fully recreate with a band smaller than Skynyrd.
In 2017, he formed a 4-piece band and took his riff portfolio to the stage. The sonic consolidation and incorporation of others input pushed the band from its doomy, swampy roots and broadened it with a Master of Puppets-meets-Vol. 4 realm that featured chugging rhythms, guitar harmonies, and slicing solos. Later that year they put out the more svelte, menacing Curse of Conception and the further polished juggernaut Divided by Darkness in 2019.
Just after Spirit Adrift’s fourth (and most eclectic) album Enlightened in Eternity was released, Nate Garrett virtually welcomed PG’s Chris Kies into his home jam space just outside of Austin, Texas. In this Rig Rundown, the former one-man band opens up about turning to his heroes for gear guidance, formulating workarounds for dreaded bunk backlines, and explains (and demos) how a little chorus and reverb goes a long way in heavy music.
[Facing a mandatory shelter-in-place ordinance to limit the spread of COVID-19, PG enacted a hybrid approach to filming and producing Rig Rundowns. This is the 28th video in that format.

I love Nate! Such a genuine guy with an unbelievable musical talent! Also one of my sobriety heroes! Hope you’re doing well, Brother!
Thank you for doing this PG! Nate is one of my favorite front men in metal right now and the last three Spirit Adrift albums have been five out of fives. Hopefully when this is all done they can come out to the east coast and play.

Spirit Adrift are fun! Some satisfying albums.
Sucks there's only 524 rig rundowns lol I need more! Great job chris
Nice rundown. Enlightened will be included in my list of top metal albums of 2020.
Great video, thank you PG! Nate is the greatest
His old band, Take Over & Destroy, used to play at this bar near my place in Tempe quite often. Kind of an interesting sound.
Love this dude's tone and the new album is fantastic
Spirit Adrift led me to Crypt Sermon. That would be a great rig rundown to follow this! #615boys love metal too.

OMG, the king of tone let us see his precious settings?!!!! We are truly blessed!
My man with the type o negative shirt
That's the 6L6 not the EL34 as Nate says. Or at least it sure looks like the 6l6 as the EL34 version is black and gold.
I'm pretty sure I have a BOSS Dimension C. Does it have 4 push buttons? My Ibanez Chorus is awesome!. I also have a BOSS Compression/Sustain pedal but I'm not a fan.
I love playing Echoes, the slow build with that pacific slide Hawian sound then it has that kinda snidy lick following the verses. Takes some fiddling with the footwear to get the sound right but once you replicate it the settings are easy enough to remember. I haven't been able to replicate the sound to satisfaction using modeling gear for understandable reasons the analogue stuff works best for me. Not knocking modeling equipment, loads of players have found their sound via a modeling unit and i have my own but theres a reason the vintage stuffs so costly.
Blue channel is set to OFF lol... I heard that's the most used channel but I only use red and green
Sasha made me a one off Dunable SG back in 2018-19. It fucking rules! I'd love to have another one but he's way busier these days!
Gatecreeper next please?

Great show! A friend inquired where exactly in Oakland is the white one your other guitarist has right now? Reason she's asking is there's a peaceful -riot- rally going on this Friday night and we could weaponize that sumgum with advance notice. One-of-a-kind, Musk-Approved Design and if it gets chipped up in the streets she promises to buff out any incidental _dents_ that may be incurred. You guys cool widdat or what? Thanks in advance.
