    I have to say that I did actually enjoy that, some interesting lyrics and an engaging vocal style.

    Yeah, the vocal sounded like it was going to tear up your throat, but I think I liked it!  Interesting music and arrangement. Yep, I did like the song, especially the instrumentation.

    Thanks, Warren! Yep, that vocal is the pretty sound of a Shure 527B, with its high-fidelity frequency response of 300Hz - 5k For this kind of sound, I love that horrible little thing....

    OK, that was a little bizarre, weird, and out there.     I like it.   
     
    The instrumentation was really cool - loved the violin lines.  And it all meshed really well.   And the vocals, of course, carried everything forward.

    It's hard to do something that far out of the "norm" and still have it be engaging.  Great stuff.

    Thanks a lot, Steve & Jonas! And yeah, weirdness is pretty much our stock-in-trade - we don't go out of our way to be weird, it just ends up that way. We don't ever write with an agenda or worry about what "style" we should be, so one song can sound like Ministry, and the next like Salif Keita. I'd even go as far as saying Love Song might be on the more "normal" side of things
     
    Thanks again to everyone who took time to check out the song - I really REALLY appreciate it, and there's a lot more to come.
     
    Cheers!
