Nice rock poetry with some cool guitar work!

I like the increase in drum volume there. Sounds awesome!

Haha! Love all the panning and filters man. Great stuff! Music to drop acid too.

How to describe this track? Organized play?

Leilani Kilgore is doing brilliant work. I play guitar and bass on this cover.

Diamond Shine (Leilani Kilgore Cover)

“Trudge” alludes to the weird disconnected-yet-superconnected reality that envelopes us all day, every day. We wade through a mire of strangely polished ‘normal’ on every social medium we consume, and then can’t work out why we feel so substandard all the time. We voraciously seek the positive feedback that is designed to suck us in and keep us coming back for more. We scroll, and scroll, and scroll, and scroll. What will it take for us to stop and look up? Or will we all slowly fall into the void?

Lyrics

This is the future baby
Trudge along ahead
Lead in my footsteps baby
Follow in my stead

Oh I’m a child of my time
I live out loud
And you call my name but I can’t hear you
I’m standing alone in the crowd

Friends on my left babe
Friends on my right
They like what I’m doing
But they can’t help me tonight

Oh I’m a child of my time
I live out loud
And you call my name but I can’t hear you
Standing alone

I feel like nobody today
Faceless, insignificant, in the way
In the way
In the way

Yeah I’m a child of my time
I live out loud
And you call my name but I can’t hear you
I’m standing alone in the crowd

We’re so together
But inside we’re so alone
Got all the answers babe
But still just don’t really know
We don’t really know, no

Yeah I’m a child of my time
I live out loud
And you call my name but I can’t hear you
Standing alone
I’m a child of my time
I live out loud
And you call my name but I can’t hear you
I’m standing alone in the crowd

Remastered from a song I made last year. 

Best with headphones or earbuds, since it is mixed binaurally (left ear should only hear the left channel and vice versa). But it isn't horrible on speakers, it just seems to fade in and out in parts.

Lyrics
--
A piece of wood
a pane of glass,
lines of code 
a broken road.
Winding up that hill
towards you.

Unused tile
a country mile
ignored so much 
it’s paved with brush
and cuts a jagged line
towards you.

Take something that’s left to you.
Pick it up and turn it around.
Make it into something beautiful
Make it into something new.

Take a look around,
take a look around.

Take A Look Around (Headphones)

One of my favorite Beatles songs.  Epiphone Casino (2016) and Epiphone Viola Bass.  Virtual drums, but with a real tambourine.

"And Your Bird Can Sing" (Beatles cover)

I've always liked this song by Band of Skulls. Thank you Dali for adding your talent to this cover.

The Devil Takes Care of His Own
Band of Skulls

If you fed the rock then you reveal an ugly scene
But the strength of 10 000 will never weaken me
Witches like a razor blade you carve me halve and whole
Oh I'd better wait to kill the time

Didn't you read it in the detail?
That if you're idle in your welfare
Now you wanna know an answer
But if you're dancing you're a dancer
The devil takes care of his own

Do you dare to speak his name there's evil at the roof
Crueler plan it's on your mind, go on and give the dice a roll
Never did believe in saying fortunes are for souls
Easy come and easy they will go

Didn't you read it in the detail?
That if you're idle in your welfare
Now you wanna know an answer
But if you're dancing you're a dancer
Didn't you read about it?
The devil takes care of his own

Didn't you read it in the detail?
That if you're idle in your welfare
Now you wanna know an answer
But if you're dancing you're a dancer

Didn't you read it in the detail?
That if you're idle in your welfare
Now you wanna know an answer
But if you're dancing you're a dancer
The devil takes care of his own.

I met Chris Duarte years ago; he's an amazing guitarist. He put on great show.

A guitar, a microphone, and a little bit of time to tell you the story.
