Frail and faltering follower of Jesus

gavD - Wyverne Sessions

By Gavin Davies

Songs recorded in 2002, a mix of funk, metal, industrial, punk, soundscape and messing about, along with a few quite pretty instrumental pieces.

Many of these were intended as demos for my band at the time, Vibration White Finger.

Some heavier tracks like “Grind”.

SOME of my bass playing is noticeably tighter at this point than on older recordings… Some is still a fiasco! I remember I had a Behringer V-Amp and an envelope filter.

Quite interesting to hear “Digitial Mutilation”, no recollection at all of how I made that!

Shoegaze/black metal/breakcore song.

Whilst obviously most black metal bands are spiritually very dark, and I don’t recommend listening to it on that account, I’ve always loved the sound and production of black metal - the tremolo picked guitars and sheer noise of it can create an amazing soundscape. I had a guitar teacher at university - Huw Davies - who showed me how to play this way and I always enjoyed it musically speaking.
