Ok, heres ANOTHER one...

Any DEVO fans? I decided to do a cover of Uncontrollable Urge. Its a little heavier then the original. That wasn't intended when I was recording, but it turned out that way.

So have a good laugh and listen to some old skool' made new. :)


Oh and "instantdan" you are are not invited!

    Devo, now that takes me back! I can remember them walking on those moving treadmills? That was DEVO right? Pretty cool. This is a pretty spot on representation of that style of music. I thought the vocals were perfect, and the guitars, I would give the drums a bit more "oomph".

    I hadn't heard that song before. The mix sounds great, especially the guitar and vox.

    Devo? "Are we not men, no we are Devo!" You vocals are right on for Devo. You totally nailed the genre, great job. My only nit, is that I want some more drums in the mix.

    I have a Marshall, but that was direct from my POD.

    Thanks for all the comments and support everyone. Should I do more DEVO?

    ORIGINAL: robby

    Troy, good cover, your vox are blinding on this.

    Robby the treadmills were 'OK Go' from this century I think, you have to be an old fossil like me to remember DEVO clearly....I think they were more famous for white boiler suits and robotic moves than treadmills.

    Yeah Troy do more covers by all means but I preferred the addition of your own creativity like on 'They're out to get me'.

    Good memories here from when I used to 'have a job, wear a hat and bring home the bacon so that no-one knew...'
