The Darkness Tone WTF ????

OK Brothers don't kill me, but if you get around the vocals (which I think are kind of fun in T&C way) the guitar tone is huge.

Any ideas on the amps and the mics used ??

Was on the eliptical yesterday and they came up on my Ipod and i was thinking wow this is some big ass old school tone with a conteporary recording approach.

Cheers

At the bottom it goes on about his effects racks and amps.

what song in particular are you talking about?

At least live, maybe in the studio, the singer actually was using a Mesa Boogie head.

The first time I saw them live they were using Mesas (Justin) and 1959slp's (Dan) both in a wall stack configuration, the second time Dan had upgraded to 1959HW's.
