Short and sweet...not much else to say...enjoy  ;D

Loaded Gun
Andy Casson
18th Jan 2014
They've drawn the lines
They've stolen and they've run
Don't turn your back on a loaded gun
I tiried and tried
Stood my ground where they had none
And turned my back on a loaded gun

So the sum of all I know is in this skin
For it's written in the soul of everything
If i'm alive then I must know, and reap all I sow
But the sum of all my fears is in this skin

It's borderline
If you cross it you are done
Can't turn your back on a loaded gun
They've drawn the lines
They've stolen and they've run
Don't turn your back on a loaded gun

This is terrific track just rocks,
your vox seems to have less reverb on it which suits you
Only thing I would say all too short would love more!!

Another great rocker. I love the harmonies on the chorus, together with the strings they make an interesting atmosphere.

thanks guys for all the comments, it's another of those songs I don't know really what to do with it... and drew a blank at 3 minutes...I guess it will go on the pile to be re-visited at some point...
Cheers
Andy

Big drums, big guitars, rumbling bass and a real rocker. I also like the clean vox, they cut through nicely. Massive guitar solo somewhere? This one was crying out for windmilling arms and a face-shredding solo...

Love the punchy sound here, don't leave it on the revisit pile too long....

Pure class Andy.
Your song always have that classic vibe to them.

The mix and arrangement are on point as are the playing and vocals
The drums, My Goodness... just wicked.

I could not help but dig this one.  I don't think much else needs to be done to it.  The drums got a number of mentions but to me the guitars and vocals are the topper...the drums do rock this though
