For your review and comments: Independence Day?

The mood for this piece is driven by all the news stories I've seen this week. North Korea issues, Syria issues, Police issues, etc. It seems that you have to look really hard for good in the world these days.

    Well, this just needs some soaring lead guitar and a nice set of lyrics to scream out-IMO. Outside of that, and perhaps a few tweaks here and there, as it goes along, this is a fine project that certainly has enough backbone to hang more meat on.

    Thanks Dean! Guitar I can do... screaming lyrics... not so much. Might need to hire a singer.

    Coming from a keyboard/piano player, I LIKE THAT..
    That was fun!  Pretty dark in the beginning but that wasn't a bad thing.
    Very open... Someone said screaming guitar???  That would be fun..
    Nice job

    Thanks Arlen! I appreciate the comments. I'm probably going to add a guitar solo. Got nothing on lyrics...

    I liked it...    It's got a vibe that matches up with your OP, and the mix is nice and clear.    Time to get cracking on those vocals.
