Board to Death Ep. 24 - Broken Social Scene
Brendan Canning and Andrew Whiteman give us a look at a portion of their effects arsenal while on-stage with Broken Social Scene in this tag-team episode of Board to Death. This band's sound has tons of texture and layering. Combine that very full sound with many members, people jumping from one pedal board to another during the set, and you are bound to have a lot of pedals. The ever elusive EQD Legacy member Monarch makes a rare appearance, as does the tried and true Dispatch Master. These guys have been playing music for a long time and know a thing or three. They prove that it is possible to be tempted by new options, and imperative to just use what works. Warden Optical Compressor, Avalanche Run, and Night Wire hang out on Whiteman's board along with many other familiar stomps, and even a mystery box. Don't worry, he tells you what it is!
