This one is also about 11 years old, from 2012. Classic song. I really tried to emulate their sound effects myself (which they did in studio) - i.e. “Foley”. Fun song. I think I did a decent version. I may not have mastered this one. This was also probably done in Pro Tools, not Reaper.

Did you bust out the silverware trays for this one!?!? Cool song and cool cover!

I sure did! An interview I read described their process in the studio (an English mansion IIRC, Tittenhurst?, Ringo Starr’s old place?). They dropped silverware trays on a metal kitchen table for the Metal Gods stomping feet at the end. I did mine on a tile floor, with a close mic on the adjacent carpet.
For the “bam” sounds in the intro, they had hit some sheet metal with some object IIRC, with lots of compression and reverb. I took a thunder clap sound from my field recordings, and did about the same thing.
I’m glad you liked it!
