“We basically took every part of each track like the sax or the vocals or the drums, all of it, and we re-amped them. Sometimes just through different valve amps and sometimes we ran them back through a variety of guitar pedals. I’d ride the effects through the track manually for the whole song. Most of these extra tracks weren’t used in the end but it was a lot of fun, and we got some really good results out of it. We always write and record the music first, then we give the finished product to the singer who layers over it. So as a band we never really know what the end product will sound like until the singer adds their vocals.”
