Hey people, here's a cover of "Song For The Dead" by Queens Of The Stone Age. I added this to my list of covers shortly after Mark Lanegan (who originally sang on this track) passed away earlier this year.
The drum track I originally recorded was very sloppy (that's what I get for trying to cover a Dave Grohl drum part), so it's the only one of these covers that I recorded while at TAFE where I went back and re-recorded a more consistent drum track on top after doing the rest of the instruments. While most of the rest of these covers have a relatively similar drum mic setup, this was the first one where I tried a different set of mics for the toms (AKG C418 microphones). They're not being made anymore from what I can tell, but they have a naturally boosted top end that works well for dense mixes like this one.
