All Wars Human

[Bluesberry]

utterly entrancing and fantastic...lyrically and vocally this reminds me greatly of Joy Division.....utterly fantastic....your experiment was a great success....

A stellar entry Mike. The cut up lyrics have quite a level of depth to them, with a foreboding and almost mechanical quality to them. The chords are great in here, pretty unorthodox progession but it really works well. Excellent guitar work too, you have so much character when you play lead.

This is superb Mike, really worth the effort. I love the lyrics, I'm glad you persevered with them. The cut up approach throws up some odd sounding ideas and phrases but if you tweak them a bit and also find some interesting sources for the generator, you end up with something really unique. Which is what I think you have here, it's sounds a bit off the wall (which gives it a great edge) but there's a lot of sense in there as well.

The music is great as well, I love that off kilter second chord in the "All wars human" line, it really sticks in the brain and creates a bit of dissonance. The guitars sound fab and I love the solo, great use of the flangey/chorussy sound - it sounds great but you also use the sound really well in the solo. The vocals are really well done as well, and the whole mix hangs together really well.

Finally, I really like the drums - how did you do them? The pattern over the "All wars human" works really well.

A belter, really enjoyed this one!

yeah baby.

I'd pay good money to see this band live - when are they on tour?

Fantastic. Great to hear you singing too, a really good job.

Thanks a million for listening everyone, really appreciated as always.

Nigel... the drums are done in garageband... the full iMac Desktop version... so you get to see and edit individual beats, create your own fills very easily. It is a bit time consuming but I really enjoy this part. I used to do a bit of drumming when I was a kid which maybe helps, so I have a decent idea of how I want the fills and patterns to sound. But fiddling around a bit makes a fair difference I think, rather than just leaving a few simple loops there... well for rock music anyway.

Cheers
