Reverse (rough demo)

-------------------------------------------- 
wounded by a violin in heat tasting of the rain 
i became the aperture; i became the iris
with no colors save the greys 
and the only stains are fades 
giving way to just a blank page
now and then it blows my mind 
forward, play, stop, rewind... 
reverse
forward, march! another taste. this time 
a little taste of spain remained inside me 
with its eyes gouged out.
i remember all the veins 
(you know i used to name my veins) 
i named them after the apostles
now and then it wears me thin 
slows me down and puts me in... 
reverse

Daren!  You human beings are at your very best when the chips are down, or when you're producing music like this.  This is a musical stew of Revolver meets Alice in Chains meets Led Zeppelin.  The backward percussion takes me back to my youth.  Your lyrics are in a league of their own.  How come you're not recording Imogen Heap?  The two of you would be a match made in heaven.  Anyway, my hat's off to you!

Hi Daren, I like this, a lot. maybe experimental but it certainly works. Vocals, lead, could be a bit louder, very nice lead guitars .

Rik

hey thanks guys :) 

Imogen...yeah i love her- her creativity and enigmatic blend of styles kinda has no parallel... nice to hear you bring her up, Lynn. 

cool Rik- indeed i may have set the vox in the soundbed a bit too much esp in the verses, but i was kinda going for that low-fi sound eg Lennon's 'Give Peace A Chance' which i think was recorded live at Lennon-Ono's "bed-in" bedroom with just a room mic or two 

also Lynn i noticed a few have noted the 'Revolver' homages - that is one of my fav Beatles albums 

excellent feedback- gracias 

hi daren great production all under control vocals could come up a tad brings me back to the days at the montreal forum not sure thats spelled right well done thanks for sharing  eric

Very cool track... love the lyrics and harmonies...
This is very inventive and interesting... well done Daren...

Good stuff Daren - love the guitar work on this one

I've suspected it all along but now I can say you are truly a freak!  Of course, that's good!  Daren, this is a combo of a lot of elements like I think you said.  Kept me interested the whole time.  I will say this is my favorite of yours. 

a talented freak he is....the force is strong in this one!

:-) He come on flat top, he come grovin up slowly...

Reverse? Interesting. I did a song called "Reverse Cowgirl?" It is simalar, but "wildly different..."
