2021 025-365 Out of the Black

For Macro Mondays Lockdown Song, here's my interpretation of Royal Blood's Out of the Black.

Thanks to Ken Scott for reminding me how much I loved this two piece band from Brighton (not far from us). Sadly I haven't seen them live, but the Virtual Glastonbury 2020 near the end of Lockdown 1.0 in June helped me reconnect, and their two albums soon became part of my regular playlist, especially in Lockdown 3.0...

My son was given this bass guitar years ago. He hardly ever used it, being totally immersed in the drums. I can't bear to get rid of it, and it has featured occasionally in previous 365's. You may notice one of the strings is missing! I enjoy the way the strings appear to be vibrating thanks to the dof.

Width of fingerboard 1.5".

Processed to be more contrasty and gritty, just like their music. Apologies for one swearword in the attached video. I love to see bands enjoying themselves, from Glastonbury 2017, something else I have never experienced *sigh*
