Hey Everyone,
 
I usually wait for when I have music videos to share new songs but I figured why not... Here's the next release off my upcoming 3rd album Head Like Fire which comes out on 12/6. I'm actually hoping to shoot a video for this one next year if all goes well.
 
Anyway, enjoy. Hope you all like it.

Hi David,
 
this sounds great! Very strong build up while staying on the theme which is really catchy. Is this virtual guitar or played?
I don't care how it's done... for me the outcome is what counts and this is really good.
Looking forward to the video.
 
Best regards,
Daniel

Thanks Daniel! Yea on this album i used a mixture of fake and real guitars to hopefully blend it all together, but this song particular is all virtual. If I remember correctly some of it is from Omnisphere and some is from Shreddage 2, but I use a few other virtual guitar sources too plus Guitar Rig on the virtual instruments and other effects.

Thanks for listening!

The Devil is GOOD! Great job, like the tight drums...solid synths & rugged guitars textures...

Thank you Shawn! Can't wait to release this album. Less than a month away :-)

Liked this from the off David, really atmospheric, good use of delay patterns. That 'spaghetti western' guitar sound is perfect, love it. Track builds very nicely too.

Entertaining.  I too liked the spaghetti western guitars.  Thanks for the tickle.

Love this!
A great combination of synth with the earlier-mentioned western guitars...

Thanks so much you guys! You know it's funny, when I was working on it, I wasn't even thinking spaghetti western I was just thinking "Bad Ass but Sparse guitar" haha but it's totally Spaghetti Western like. You're all right. And I'm totally cool with that :-)
 
BTW as soon as this album is out I am due for my quarterly go through and listen to all of your music session haha. Come to think of it I'm behind schedule on a bunch of my This Thing Rules software reviews too... and a short film I'm scoring... Gahhh.. Haha. This album is killing me, but that's a good thing :-)

Nice track builds well, nice bottom end rumble.  Thanks for sharing.  For the release I hope you break that metaphoric leg
