“Ignore the voices from the telescreen” reads one of the lines from Hidden Amongst Us’ first single “The Machine.” The song is a message to the masses. It’s a call to arms. It’s “1984.” Things are happening right in front of our eyes and out of our control leaving us with only two options. Follow like sheep or think for yourself. FUCK THE SHEEP.

I recently had a chance to speak with Les Hall, guitarist of the hard rock band Crossfade. The South Carolina based band have just released their latest disc, We All Bleed, and Hall was kind enough to take a moment to speak with me about that one special piece of gear.
