could anyone tell me what effect the lead guitarist is using here to get that sort of echo sound? is it delay or reverb? and if so is it a specific type of verb/delay? or could you dial it in to your general reverb/delay pedal?

if its the guitar i'm hearing there, i think it may be reverb set to Hall.

Sounds like delay to me. In the beginning I think I see a Nova Delay there, cant be too sure, but that was with the bassist. Maybe they use similar gear?

Nice song. It's a slapback echo (about 50ms IINM) from a tape delay (or digital with a filter), feedback set to give it about three clear repeats. Then there's a hall reverb on the whole mix, including quite a bit on the guitar. The slapback gives it that rockabilly/early rock 'n roll feel.
Second prize would be to use a room reverb with a long predelay, which would give you something sort-of similar (but not quite).

thanks alan! dialed it in on guitar rig and its almost right on the money. cheers mate!

Nice vibe! Main vocalist kinda reminds me of Parlotones ... (please don't fight guys)
Lol, the bassist hits his head on the mic near the beginning!

man.. how i wish you hadn't done that >☹ kahn morbee sounds like a mere boy, years from adolescence, when compared to rossen. his voice is haunting!
kayDUB
Wasn't comparing them, I said he reminds me of Parlotones. ie there's something to his voice that makes me think of them ? don't think I'm making this any better for you, hey? ?

haha. yeah, i'm just taking the piss. i really detest the parlotones, and grizzly bear is awesome. i spose there is a resemblance... albeit tiny ?
Vick
There is NO resemblance...thank you ? ?

Alan nailed it on the head...What confuses it a bit is the quite high wash of hall reverb across the whole mix. Nicely done though.......

I kinda taught I was hearing a vibe and a hall reverb over the vibe or sumthing....One day,I hope to achieve this in-depth and slightly scary, understanding of effects.........

All a product of my "wasted youth" when I would sit for hours on end, fiddling with effects - especially delays. ? Also, there weren't many effects available in my youth and they were relatively expensive, so pedalboard growth was slow. That meant we got to learn every single effect backwards before we could afford the next one. These days, multieffects are the first thing a player usually gets and there are so many options that most people barely skim the surface.
kayDUB
Yeah, that's one thing I like about building up a pedalboard over multis. I only started to understand the realm of effects when I switched from my POD2 (first effects pedal) to singles. But of course my ear has room for improvement! ?
TomCat
My path was similar to Alan's.....My first effects processor was the Roland DEP-5, a unit that came out with horrible factory presets but when you dug your way into the unit you found it to be a real gem. I spent many hours working the what is now limited parameters to squeeze the last ounce out of the unit.
Then one day I had two of them at the same time...it felt like Christmas...... ?
