A while back, Casey and I recorded some live improvs at rehearsal where I played both guitar and keyboards.
Although these are up on our site, I figured I should post them here because its really the kind of thing other musicians would appreciate, since it's rare to hear this style of metal improvised in the first place, and I don't think the simultaneous guitar and keyboard thing has been ever been done in this sort of manner. Trying to make shit up on two different instruments in real time was incredibly challenging, but the songs that came out of it were diverse enough to the point where I'm actually fairly sure everyone here would really enjoy at least one of these tracks, so here they are.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED WHILE STONED:

Appreciate any and all feedback.
(Just to answer any obvious questions:
* No sustain pedal was used w/the keyboard, with the sole exception of the third song's last ten seconds
* No editing was done after the fact, with the sole exception of fading out the second song towards the end
* Guitar rhythm loops were only used during guitar solos, never during piano parts
* No overdubs - all the guitar and piano parts are played live at the same time
* All legit improv - no parts of this were composed or practiced beforehand)
