Ok this track was retrieved from the lost hard drive, or The Vault as I like to call it.  I've esentially been working on this for 5 years, after I lost the first version I redid the track unsucsefully and for the last year I have been working on the bottom end of version one.
 
I'm happy now!!
 
Ok the song is about a woman, as always and I think the lyrics speak for themselves.  I suppose I have tried to create a 4/4 foot stamper complete with heavy electric guitars but with a couple of suprises.
 
Enjoy Peace

Hi Ben, you sure are an original. No idea why you're so angry  ; ), hope you find some..... peace. There is some , probably, unwanted distortion sputtering along in this, thought my speakers had given the ghost : )

Rik

Like Rikkie said, you are one of a kind.  This piece brought a smile to my lips, much like opening a time capsule from 20 years ago.  I had some trouble understanding all the words, but I suppose the lyrics weren't the raison d'etre.  The emotion does come through loud and clear, and that can often be all you need to communicate.  I sometimes suspect you may be a space traveler who landed in the wrong era.  Yet, your contributions on this forum can often be invaluable.  Peace.

The break at 2:00 was great.

War!!!

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothin'.

Peace Ben.

I actually got Peace @ 2:34**.












** Ben, I keed, I keed. But it did kind of evoke the song "War" to me.

Hey guys, thanks so much, sorry I haven't been able to contribute to the forum as much.  I will try and do a catch up today.  I've also got a lecture on the sublime to do and then a 500 word comparative essay on two art peices.  But enough about my life.

Rikkie, thanks can you describe this distortion or can anyone else hear it??  I do have this track pushing the averages a bit -12 to -9db RMS but also there is distortion on the main vocal.

Lynn: I am a spaceman and I certinaly feel sometimes I don't belong here, hence the angriness Rikkie.  Seriously though I am a little bitter all this talent and it's sitting in the garage going nowhere.

James-Thank you very much.

Bapu, well that really is a compliment, WAR was sung by a black man and if I am getting close to sounding like a black man, downstairs must be starting to look like a black man too!!

Peace Neb

Ben, I suspect you're reaching a lot more people than you realize.  Jolly good.

Sounds like the distortion is from clipping in the levels on the bass. I'd be full of anger too if this is what I ended up with after 5 years.

This is a little like Devo on acid.    Love that bass and drum tone  Daryl

There's definitely some distortion in the vox and the bass, but all in all an enjoyable track. I like the pause starting at 0:49. Ripping it out at 1:45 on the guitar! It's definitely experimental. Definitely look at your levels as there is some clipping. Maybe relax the threshold a little bit on your compression?
