Скачать или смотреть Into The Void - Behind the Score: Whammy Orchestra plays Dimebag Darrell Tribute

Pantera guitarist Dimebag Darrell is one of the most well known users of this big red pitch pedal called the “Digitech whammy.”

For the Into the Void episode about Pantera, I had the idea to do a string quartet style arrangement for 3 loud guitars with whammy’s and automate the pitch via midi so I could have precise control over the harmony, create fretless, "string-like" glides that evoke Texas and also pay tribute to the tone and style of one of my Guitar Heroes, Dimebag Darrell.

I asked my childhood friend Payson Power from the band Tomb Mold, and Michael Catano from the band North of America to join in.

I think it's an interesting clash of neo-classical, heavy metal, post-rock and film scores that’s never really been done before.

Into the Void is an upcoming Hulu docuseries from Vice Studios that explores the untold history and emotional sagas of heavy metal artists. The eight-part series aims to go beyond the music to reveal the deeper, more human stories of trauma, loss, identity, and resilience behind some of metal's most misunderstood figures.
