Betrayal is okay. (scratch take of cut intro)

about

I still really like this idea and wish I'd kept it in.
Since this is guitar only, allow me to include some guitar facts about this album:

All of the electric guitars for Bad Happy were played with my dad's then-brand-new Fender Stratocaster through Sean's* Marshall Twin, recorded with an SM57 on a tall mic stand hanging off the side of my bed. The only exceptions to this were the guitar solo on Loud Noise and all of Betrayal. Both were played on a pretty beat up Les Paul with Logic's native digital amps. The clanky-ness of Betrayal's guitar tone come from the MXR Bass DI+ running in "color" mode.
I can't remember all of the pedals and what songs used what, but I am fairly certain Proclivity used a ProCo Rat. Spazzpop and 888 may have been overdrive from the amp and my instinct says that Feeler used my BM-1 Black Metal Pedal.

In any case, this intro was recorded with this bizarre Tokai guitar that I bought in 2008 that looks like it has EMGs but actually just has single coil pickups under the pickup guards.
