"Now That It's Clear" a Hook original

[Hook]

Wrote this riff & progression about 20 years ago but never thought I'd be able to make it sound like it sounded in my head. This is close. I used my new traveler electric, it has a toggle switch with a distortion setting, this is that setting straight into the br. The vocals are the new Pyle handheld condenser into my line 6 Pocket Pod.

1 Electric guitar
1 U-Bass
1 drums (Garageband-stereo)
1 lead vocal
1 weird phased/distorted vocal

Now That It's Clear

written & performed by Hook

I know that you can see
much deeper than I
but I feel that we will be free
if we can beat the odds

Revelatory coincidence
open my eyes to what has been missed
I've been lied to for all these years
& I can't see now that it's clear

I've always trusted you
Your opinion and your word
You've always believed in me
and I've always thought that absurd

I can't see through the haze
It's so in my way

Great song Hook, corker. Nice to hear more of a rocky attitude.

Guitar sounds wicked too

Super track brother. Reminds me for some reason of early Rush (Fly by Night), that guitar sound and riff is very Alex Lifeson - and although your vocals are nothing like Geddy, I can hear Geddy singing it in my head - super cool track.
Rock on brother.

Is that opening riff in 9/8? It hurt my head in a good way.  Very cool. Something atypical from your recent posts. Very cool.
