With that much twiddily widdily sleaze, you're bound to get slapped with a restraining order of some kind Sounds fun, almost got a slight surf vibe with that first riff?

strong cognitive dissonance between how I hear this track and how I imagine the track with the title of this track anyway after getting past that I really enjoyed the track! Amazing shredding! I didn't understand the sleazy part tho. sounds pretty schwanky to me!

Was really hoping the grooves would have that sleaze vibe, but I will take the Schwank instead!

Wow this one takes no time to kick in. I merely clicked the play button that I got a kick with an army boot right into my jaw.  Sick riffage and shreddy solo. You're really good at producing these tracks. If I attempted the same thing it would all sound like mud. What is your trick usually? Number of guitar tracks/panning/things to look for in EQ, etc, please share your secrets!

Hi Ked, how long you got lol, first trick, leave the cab mic'ed up, then you can adjust week to week, but your starting point is never awful. I very rarely do much different than 1 guitar each side panned hard L and R, but I do double mic. At the moment a dynamic and a ribbon. EQ as a start, do the low pass at 10-12Khz, high pass 80-100Hz, with heavy guitar a multi band compress at 200ish to control palm mutes then try not to push any other band to far in EQ, i like the never boost by more than 3 db, never cut more than 5. And narrow Q for cuts, broad for boosts. But all these are only start points, rules are made to be broken lol. Leads I keep to the middle, and often cut even more low end, but shape the mids a bit more, and remember that using FX like delay and verb inside your DAW is not the same as recording delay or verb on the mic itself. That one took me years to learn.

You dirty man, and yet, these riffs are so clean.

I really dig the drum beats you have going on here. The kick/snare/kick/kick/kick/snare pattern at the beginning is great. Simple, but effective and fits perfectly. Awesome riffs.
