GORILLA by Sean Thomson

Here’s a few random facts about GORILLA:

1. Pretty much all the guitar and bass parts were played through this little tiny Gorilla amp. Sometimes even the synth/keys/drums were ran through it. Picked up the amp because it was another one of those “Secret Weapon” amps of Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age uses from time to time and it definitely does a thing. I think you can hear my fanboy-ness of Josh come through on it.

2. Some of the riffs were written back in my late teens/early 20s.

3. The album is best listened to loud. Like Motörhead or AC/DC loud. Put on some headphones or put it on some big ass speakers and crank it as loud as you’d listen to Overkill or Love Me Like a Reptile.

5. It’s probably best listen to as a whole too. It’s like, only a hair over 25 minutes, you can do it. It’s kind of like stoner rock but for people with ADD.
