Re-recorded vocals through a guitar amp and it changed the whole mix
Last week I tracked vocals for a demo straight into my old Fender amp instead of the usual mic pre. I turned the gain up till it broke up just a little, then backed off the mic a foot from the grille. The take sounded like garbage solo, but in the full mix it sat way better than anything I'd done in months. I had to redo the bass line to fit the new grit, but the whole thing finally felt like a band playing one room. Has anyone else tried routing vocals through a practice amp just to see what sticks?

Grit over clean, every time. Ran a sm57 into my little champ with the volume at like 3 o'clock and it was gross by itself but glued everything together in the track. The trick is you gotta notch out around 2k after, or it fights the snare. Worth the hassle.
