--> Ok, I've got to fess up about this release and my last one. For my most recent album, link my wife wrote me a press release. She included the statement "His previous albums, Bees and White Chicks received online accolades from his electronic music peers at em411.com." Looks great, accept it's not true. I hadn't released or shared my old stuff with anyone on this site. So I was left with three options. I could remove the statement from the press release. But it makes me sound so good! I could just leave the statement and not worry about it's inaccuracy. Or I could leave it and release some of my old songs in hope that at least a few people like them enough to offer up praise. And that's just what I'm doing. Save me from my own lies people!

And a little about the song: I made it in 2001. There's a power chord riff that I sampled from Slaughter's "Up All Night" song. The other guitar sounds are treated keyboard ones. It probably ends up sounding like corny 90s industrial music. But parts of the song remind me of some of the absolute shittiest rock that was on MTV in the late 90s. Think of really aggressive dudes with goatees. Maybe the bassist has evil make-up or contacts. But my pitch shifted munchkin voice hardly sounds tough. In any case, the song abruptly evolves (or devolves) into a classical sounding composition complete with very fake sounding keyboard strings.

OMG this is ridiculously fuckin awesome

yes, fuckin

crazy, I'm laughing but in the right sort of way

you are a nut

Needs more stallone and less van damme

Actually, this is great, I just wanted to make an 80's comparison

Hmm.. slight predicament eh nick!.. nothing a good money bribe won't sort out! ;)

I gotta say, this track's a mixed bag.. the glitchly intersection between the first and last sections is a nice touch..
It sounds well mixed, almost has that rock sheen to it!.. But I would've of loved it more if it had sounded as kooky as a Chrome or Helios Creed track.

not my bag per se, but nice track.

Thanks guys.

If I ever legitimately go insane, I will make a lot more music that sounds like this. And I'll have to check out Chrome and Helios Creed. I've never heard them before.

i love this
i love you

an excellent band.. up there as one of my favorites!

i love this
i love you
i love your self portrait
i love

this is great. pretty funny.

and as a side note: chrome is pretty killer, everyone should check them out. but i don't think this song needs to sound more like them, i think it would loose a lot if it did
Thanks some more people. I feel less like a lier already.

Actually Sam, I look just like Fred Durst circa 1998. The main difference is that I also wear black opaque contacts.

genius. best track i've heard here in ages!

fred durst eh? well, i look like henry rollins (ha!). my rock god beats your rock god...with or without opaque contacts

J-Chot, I always hoped that I would one day gain your approval. Sweet.

YOU FUCKING RULE
