I sort of like it, but that sound clearly belongs to Sonic Youth... sort of like how if you make a cool wall of efx sounds you can easily become a My Bloody Valentine rip-off.
The behind-the-bridge-area of Mexican Jazzmasters/Jaguars is still uncharted. 😉 Placebo uses it too. Their main tuning is FA#D#G#CC and many of their songs end into A# chord and surprise, surprise - the E-string behind the bridge is A# so it really fits and you can do some crazy outros (also intros) for songs. But that was a long time ago. Now they're "grown up". ☹
it's not one of those A# songs but wait for 1:44
