Title: Smoke 'em If You Got 'Em
Post by: Zoltan on March 18, 2022, 02:23:19 PM
Aargh! This is doing my head in :D Been slaving around this idea for a few hours for the Psychedelic Fest, but the verse vocals are giving me the blues. I wouldn't want to rap them and the only ideas i seem to get are borderline rap stuff.

I'm posting the demo on the second post so it doesn't show on the player...

I like the overall sound. Some great performances. Love the guitars and drums. Nice psychedelic vibe in places. I think you could maybe use the verse parts as the chorus and the chorus as the verses? I'm sure you'll work it out.

I think this is cool as it is. The main verse riff part has enough character and interest to stand alone. I didn't find myself missing lyrics on those parts as they already have a decent hook.

Not sure what you're worried about - I'd post it to the fest as it is. It's a very entertaining song and performance :-)

Cool riffs and the drum track works extremely well!! A really toe tapper!

Excellent job!

Killer drum track and cool overall vibe, well suited to the fest. Defo a Doors feel. I agree with Tim - this is cool as it is and has plenty of character.
