This was my 4th attempt for this group of songs to create an overtly CKY sounding song, while trying to limit my other usual influences/sonic preferences. It ended up sounding like a mid-point (along with the 1st track) between the most successful attempts (the 8th track) & the initial attempt (the 4th track on the album).

The song is built around one riff that changes slightly during each section of the song, with the different drum parts providing the change necessary to keep the song interesting.

The guitar tone throughout this song, & tracks 1 & 8 on the album are a close approximation of the signature CKY guitar tone, that’s achieved through an octave pedal & fuzz/distortion.

In a departure from the norm for my songs, the bass throughout the song is played with a pick, as are the 1st & 8th tracks, with a bass line that grooves but still follows the guitar part, adding to the signature CKY sound.

This song was notated in Guitar Pro, with the MIDI/RSE audio files exported & mixed in Garage Band. Additional synth, sound effects & editing were done in Garage Band, then sheet music was altered in Guitar Pro to reflect this when possible.
