Title: Damned
Post by: Ron D Bowes on September 26, 2022, 08:37:05 AM
Life has been getting on top of me and I was getting depressed. One disaster after another and that was making me grumpy here and elsewhere. So, I turned to music to reflect my current outlook.  So, here is my latest.

Get out of my head. Sadly, a very relateable song.  Love the chimey guitars and BG vox. Great tune.

Love the vocals on this, loadsa character. Great original track and very original sound, a little bit indie rock maybe? Very catchy and very cool.

Hey this is really great! I applaud you on being able to turn disaster(s) into great music.

And the other stuff you said tells me that you're a man of great character! I hope you've managed to strangle the dragons and things are already looking better for you Ron!

The playing, the vocals. This is really vibey and memorable song.

the cool thing is you made your vocals sound almost completely different... I like this so much!!!!  It really adds another dimension to your catalog... it's almost got a 60's psych feel with a cross of Van Halen on those backing vocals sounds... liking that guitar work also and the bit differing sounds there as well...
you know what the heck you are doing...
It's obvious you are a great musician and songwriter and know how to record and mix too... glad I get to hear your stuff and that you found your way to songcrafters.... I can relate to all the other stuff... it happens.  Good way to blow the smoke off!

Another great rocker, Ron. Love the guitar work and I'd be damned if I didn't like this.

Damn another good rock track Ron , very catchy that is a great vocal hook and tone. . Some real grungy rock on that break.  that end section with the effects was a surprise,  Hope life is treating you more kind.

I comment while listening, and right now head bobbin, shoulders swaying, and grooving in my mind. Guitars are wild! There is a rawness in the vocals that transport me back to 60s (yes I am that old). Anyone else reminded of early WHO?

Hope you get to better place, however, we all will suffer when you do get there cause we won't hear creations such as this. God love those guitars and that solo - ha ha!

Well done!

Mike

Damn good! See what I did there?

The deep reverb gives this song a sense of railing against the sky – which works for the topic of the song.

I admire the ability to turn the present sentiment into music. I tend to jot down an idea, and when I come back to it later, the feeling that inspired the idea is no longer fresh.
