Love Blank Generation! Consider myself lucky to grow up in Detroit area in 70's....lotsa great Iggy/Stooges, Alice Cooper etc on radio all the time....kinda ingrained in the brain!
Yeah, I really dug this! Not my usual genre vocalwise, but I found that reading along with the lyrics(which were brilliant!) I could actually understand them...agree that bringing em up in the mix a bit would be cool, also agree about the guitar tone, sounds awesome!
Like Billy Joel meets The Beatles....love the swingin vibe, great lyrics...did not hear a "gurgling leslie" sound, but perhaps that was on a earlier mix? Anyways, I really dug it, nice job!!
RAYC was kind enough to provide me with some lyrics that I think fit perfectly for this song, so heres my 1st attempt at vocals on this.....going for a Iggy/ALice Cooper/Bowie/Ian Anderson/Elton John/ kinda vibe:drunk:

Thanks alot HM, funny bout that solo, it was my 2nd attempt and I broke a string at the end...
Yeah, a tough one to tackle for sure, I think you definetly do it justice, nice guitar thru out! Also noticed the keyboard kinda going away...nice vocals...really nice harmonies at 3:40! Enjoyed the listen, nice job
Wow, really cool ! Kinda reminds me of Jade Warrior with the vocals/dynamics....Love when the bass and drums kick in around 2:00 or so...acoustic guitar sounds fab!!Well done, I really dug it!
Agree the vocals are a little buried,I like the 12 string, and the little flanging guitar that appears at times....would like to hear the bass guitar a bit more prominant as at times some cool lines are coming thru, and it might give the song a bit more swing....nice lyrics
Thanks Greg, Im pretty happy with the bass sound....funny, when I havent played in a while, my guitar playing/solos seem to be really wanky /cheesy....I will be redoing it , probably with something besides my strat which always brings out the wanker in me :o
Thanks , working on lyrics...
Working on some stuff, this one is going to have vocals I think, but wondering how its sounding so far, trying to get a good solid low end bass guitar/drum sound, and think I may be a little to busy on the bass at times(played like a guitar player) and the drum hi-hat sounds annoying at...
Hey, that was really cool....get a real Beck vibe, keyboard has a cool early Floyd sound to it. Vocals sound great, really nice clean recording with everything sitting nicely in the mix on my headphones....really enjoyed this!
Thanks a lot HM! "It's cool, but a little disorienting." I like that :>) Working on a new thing I wrote now and am really trying for a raw , vibe thats entireyl diffrent then what I normally do, and way outta my comfort zone....should be interesting.Thanks for taking the time to listen and...
