This was fun. Love the tracks you're putting together. Thanks for the inspiration!

I like the way this builds up and takes off. Really great stereo fielding on the lead guitars.

Very satisfying rock song! Hard-driving but with intricate texture.

That's for sure! The forests in the United States are apparently not the same as in France!

I love this soaring music that keeps life exciting and hopeful as long as you're determined to make it work. Exciting celebration in this lively track with fantastic guitar.

Brilliant rock music- fantastic playing and production - well done !

Eighth and final  track on a loose concept album I did for the RPM challenge 11 years ago. Amen is the finale of the story as the protagonist and the band of survivors have found a sanctuary and vow to keep from making the mistakes of the society that destroyed itself. 

We have destroyed society though some horrific mechanism, perhaps nuclear war, and our protagonist travels the wasteland with his guitar looking for other musicians, hope and a chance for some of us to start anew. I used a pretty convoluted recording process, but I like the songs, I hope you do too.

The Pact

Amen

In your eyes I see the truth,
The pain that pushes away those who come near.
Led by the darkness that you bear,
Yet you stand strong for others, your own fears unclear.
Through storms you've weathered, battles fought,
Each scar a story of the battles you've won.
But love's embrace, a realm untrod,
For fear's grip tightens when the past is done.
Yet within you lies a glimmer of light,
A whisper of hope amidst the night's despair.
Though shadows dance, obscuring sight,
Love's gentle touch waits, tender and rare.
Let down your guard, let love draw near,
For strength is found in the arms of love

Love's Gentle Touch

Without You

You and I

Century of Sin

I've made a few Juke Bounce records, but this is the first one I ever liked.

Surrender

Well I'm here to top it off
Momentum dropping off
Some nerve to write me off
But my drive will define it
You try to shut me down
Keep buried in the ground
No room for me to sprout
But my mind is confine-less
--------------------------------------------
Pain's a motivation
Away from comforting touch
Some days will always be tough
There's ways to get out this rut
To get out this rut
--------------------------------------------
I want and I need
I want it all
Yeah, I need it all
I want and I need
I want it all
Yeah I need it all
--------------------------------------------
Make me the underdog
Bet on the higher one
Not even close to done
Cause' the fires still risin'
I'm coming from behind
And get you by surprise
No chance of wasting time
Cause' the fires inside me
--------------------------------------------
Pain's a motivation
Away from comforting touch
They say it's only tough love
Some days are better than none
--------------------------------------------
I want and I need
I want it all
Yeah, I need it all
I want and I need
I want it all
Yeah, I need it all

I want and I need
I want it all
Yeah, I need it all
I want and I need
I want it all
Yeah, I need it all
I want and I need
I want it all
Yeah, I need it all
I want and I need
I want it all
Yeah, I need it all
