Demo #2: Midwestern Mediterranean
My thanks to everyone who checked out the previous track ("Blood State") and provided feedback. Bear in mind, again, that this is just me on guitar with Garage Band on drums and effects: what you're missing are the 8-armed drum poundings and backing vocals of my brother Chris, and the rock-solid bass genius of my man Ollie (we'll get them on tape in due time, along with lead guitarist-in-training Sean H.). In the meantime, check out my second shitty I-made-this-in-35-minutes-and-no-I-didn't-bother-to-tune-my-guitar-or-even-try-singing-well demo, this one an excerpt of our elegiac tragi-comic ballad "Midwestern Mediterrenean", which describes the situation of growing up in an ascendent Right-Wing town (Midwestern) where the Inquisition has just been reinstated (Mediterranean). Hope you enjoy (don't worry, it's brief)....
PS
And to you nay-sayers, all I gotta say is: if Rick Moranis can record a country a album, then yours truly has every right to record what are essentially blogs posts with generic chord progressions, no?

i like this one, 2. cool effect on the vocal! you know, prince famously recorded many tracks sans bass. not that you should, too, per se, but i hear a very experimental, nonstandard bassline here. just a thought. keep 'em comin'.
Rick Moranis has a country album? Why wasn't I informed!
who's nay-sayin? i'll kick their ass!
kismet:
rick moranis was nay-saying. he said "how dare you try to usurp the promotion cycle of my new country album!" i guess he thinks we are country as well. tg, i saw it on itunes. you can hear samples if so inclined...
