Nothing so advanced. I was just explaining to Doug which melodies were done by which instruments. He thought there was more synthesizer in the song than there really was, and I pointed out to him all the places where things he thought was a synth was actually just Alex's guitar being played skillfully. For example, there are a couple moments of controlled feedback that sound very pure, and I was pointing out those sections.

For anyone who is already familiar with the song's instrumentation, it's not a very interesting read. It was only interesting for Doug because his ear is trained to recognize orchestral instruments, and he didn't realize you could get so many different kinds of sounds out of an electric guitar. What made it take eight pages was the descriptions of how they pulled it all off, for instance, the Taurus pedals at the beginning. And the back-and-forth bits on the bridge.
