Leia (by Arto Hietala)

here's my most recent spare sounding heartbreaker. Really depressing stuff here so may require a certain mind frame.
This has already been compared to Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Chris Rea and Joy Division.

Good song & production. What type of gear are you using. Welcome aboard.
Rock on!

[artokh74]

Thanks a lot, Hook. 

my main recording gear:
ESIU46SE interface
cheap T-bone mics
Art Tube Amp
Cakewalk Sonar X2
Samsung laptop
EZ Drummer
Guitar Rig 5 & Ibanez Artcore (on this song, mostly I use small Fender amps and Fender or Squier strats on gtr)
Harley Benton Short Scale Bass
Harley Benton  C  Blues Harp

so it's very affordable

[artokh74]

thanks for all the nice words.  The song is very important to me, so it's especially comforting to get good feedback.

[Jarle]

Nice song, lovely vocal.

I shot and sampled a quickfire home video for this song. Since it features closeups of my well worn face and untended hairdo this might not be safe for work, and at least PG is recommended with children around.
