this could potentially be ridiculously embarrasing

but one day a few months ago i was feeling pretty aggressive and decided to record an alien sex fiend song

holy shit i actually just listened to it

it is very embarrassing

[Savage Clone]

That's one of my favorite ASF tunes.
Let's see what you did, then.

[Cantankerous]

it's me half assing it more or less

oh by the way, prepare yourself, there's a screech at the beginning

[acousticrock87]

The yell at the beginning is awesome. It sounds great so far, though. A little low for your range, maybe, but your voice still sounds fine.

[Cantankerous]

well thanks

[Savage Clone]

Guitar's OK, but I think this might actually sound better in your usual vocal style. I know the impluse is to go aggro with the vox, but it might sound more sinister the other way. Maybe.

[Cantankerous]

if i can find it somewhere on this unholy machine i can redo the vox

also it needs to be remixed

[acousticrock87]

It's always good to have a few coval takes.

I really need to install my MBox on this computer. I haven't recorded anything in months. It's just such a pain in the ass to set up.

[Cantankerous]

i typed coval hahaha
i'm so retarded

[Everyneurotic]

will let you know what i feel about your batcave performance, cantanky.

[Cantankerous]

i'm redoing it right now

[acousticrock87]

What the fuck? ProTools doesn't work on Vista?

Are you fucking kidding me?

Someone is going to die.

Here's a one-off that I don't know what to do with; a track under my "solo" project that was intended for release on a compilation that wound up not happening. Electric guitar in the bridge and "throat drone" by mister Paul Metzger, drums by Nate, space bouzouki by Dave, chord organ, acoustic guitar and voice by yours truly.
I also found out another group has been using the name "Forgotten Works," which is disappointing, as my usage predates theirs, but they're more active than I am and I'm not too attached to the name of a solo project, so I guess they can have it.

Anyway, here's a track that was laying around collecting dust:

will definitely listen to yours too, drone.

How much did you have to pay Marianne Faithfull to come over on such short notice?

haha is that a compliment or not? i can't tell but i love her so i will take it as a compliment.

^^^Nice cover, there. I like your "smoked a 1,000 ciggies before I did a vocal take" vocals. Needs more screaming at the beginning though

[Cantankerous]

it would only take me...let's see (math time)

about two weeks to smoke 1,000 cigarettes

christ

Why the Malboro corporation aren't sponsoring you already is a shocker. Still, it means that when you get to rock goddess status and come wanting to use your image, you can name your price to them

I liked the dirty guitar sound on your tune - d'you plug in straight into Garageband, or do you record through an amp? (Which guitar did you use, as well?)
