Oh wow! I love the treatment that you've given this, it was a claustrophobic number to start with and you have made it more so.

The gated distorted vocal is fab. Then suddenly light and airy. Mad World.

Fantastic cover.

A really interesting twist. The verse vocals were peaking and fizzing in my headphones a bit, but it didn't spoil the ride. Love the contrast between the scuzzy verse vocal and clean chorus. The drum sound is brilliant, and I liked the glitchy little jumps. And that's a big finale! Boom!

ODH

Great song and very nicely performed by the both of you.  From the comments I was expecting something more off the wall, instead it's a fairly faithful version, with a nice twist at the end.

Me too actually.  They don't add to the performance for me and should have been worked out.

Nonetheless, good post.

Thank you for listening, gentlemen.

I was aware of clipping and distortion in the vocal track and I removed as much as I could without destroying the track altogether.
I think as some point Trevor and I will redo said track and re-post the song.

Thanks again for your suggestions, guys. Nice to have many sets of audio receptors listening in. Mine are getting old and worn out.

I'm still not as old as ORH. We will need to cut him in half and count the rings to determine his true age.

Yes I enjoyed this. Captured the feel of the original. I too was aware of the clipping but after a while I more or less filtered it out as the quality of the performance was so good.

Sometimes I think that the human race started out as a malignant bacteria that suddenly became sentient.

Intense heat destroys bacteria. Quickly, I might add.

A fitting end, as it were. Where is Godzilla when we need him?
