Scott Kelly - We Let The Hell Come


Slowcore stripped down Country is what Scott Kelly have to offer on today's tune "We Let The Hell Come" taken from the Record "The Forgiven Ghost in Me", released 2012.

Scott Michael Kelly is one of three founding members of Oakland, California experimental metal band NEUROSIS, in which he is a vocalist and guitarist. He has been writing and publishing music since 1985 with NEUROSIS, TRIBES OF NEUROT, BLOOD AND TIME and his solo acoustic project. He is also involved in a project named SHRINEBUILDER involving Al Cisneros, Scott Weinrich, and Dale Crover. The first album from SHRINEBUILDER was released in October 2009. He has also guested on five studio albums by the band MASTODON. In addition to his musical projects, Scott, along with his bandmates in NEUROSIS, is co-owner of Neurot Recordings.

On his solo projects it is largely acoustic guitar music which is much different stylistically from the output of his primary band.

Steve Von Till - In Your Wings


Steve Von Till is best known as singer and guitarist for the post-metal band NEUROSIS, replacing Chad Salter in 1989. He is also in TRIBES OF NEUROT and CULPER RING and records solo work under both his given name and the moniker HARVESTMAN. His solo albums are composed of original songs and traditional folk arrangements, using minimalistic acoustic guitar and vocal styles.

Outside his semi-professional role as a musician, he works as an elementary school teacher. His father, Stephen F. von Till, Sr, is a civil attorney in the San Francisco Bay Area. His mother, Beth von Till, is a communications professor at San Jose State University. He resides with his wife Niela and children in Idaho. His sister, Katherine von Till is an actor/singer in L.A. She is Disney's Official Voice of Snow White -- only the 4th since 1937.



Playing with NEUROSIS in 2007, Von Till uses a guitar rig he has named the "Chain of death". He plays Stratocaster- and Telecaster-style guitars assembled from Warmoth parts. He employs Seymour Duncan Distortion (bridge) and Bartolini (neck) pickups, as well as Gibson P-90-style pickups. His guitars are routed through MXR Phaser and Blue Box pedals, a Moogerfooger MF-101 Lowpass Filter and MF-102 Ring Modulator, a Dunlop Uni-Vibe, POG octave pedal, a Parachute wah, empress tap tremolo, a true bypass routing strip, mutron phaser, a ProCo Rat and an Electro-Harmonix Bass Micro Synthesizer. The signal is routed to a Mesa/Boogie Mark IV with a Mesa cab and a Fender ’65 Twin Reverb Reissue combo.

As with his previous solo works, it’s Von Till’s weathered, distinctive voice and sparse acoustic guitar that provide the foundation. The songs are informed by a worldview that attempts to peer beyond the veil of the physical world and recognize the symbols and messages that often go unnoticed.

Today's tune "In Your Wings" is taken from his 4th solo album "A Life Unto Itself" (2015)


Live @ L'Espace B - Paris - 05 07 2015
