Finished this track recently, and I figured I would share it with everyone. Thanks for listening, and feel free to download it if you want! 

For those who are interested, I used my PRS SE Custom 24 guitar with stock pickups running direct into my PC, with a couple of LePou plugins. LeGion for the amp, and then a Redwirez impulse through LeCab 2, along with some more goodies in Guitar Rig 5.

The bass is my Squier Jaguar, three tracks total. One direct, one with some grit, and one with minor distortion for a slight kick.

The drums are Superior 2.0 with a mix of the Avatar and Metal Machine kits.

The Mental Straights is my musical ramblings on a plate. From dirty fuzz pop to anarchic and wacky , to punk to funk. But all laced with the same DNA.
And it's all old school...no computer trickery, just play and record and go.

Lliam Greguez is a macro ice photographer who captures freezing moments of a mountain stream and a creative arts therapist who, before C-19, used music to engage chronically ill children in five hospitals around New York City.

He also unlooses his experimental tendencies with five albums - a pair of Acoustic, a pair of Electric, and one Ambient. 

The acoustics are: Other People’s Children in English and La Yola in Spanish, the latter written by Dominican artist Luis Días. Each showcase uptempo acoustic music that could be labeled anti-pop with a unique essence accompanied by deliberative lyrics.

Then the two rock albums also contain one by Luis Días and one by the trio "Any of Several Weasels" reveling in the electric guitar sound. Luis' album is driven by Caribbean rhythms, while AoSW fuses punk and progressive.

Meanwhile, the "Look of Utter Disbelief" explores synth, sampling, and guitar improvisations.

Be sure to check out Lliam's website for a taste of his ice photography and stories from working with hospitalized children.

I live in Tennessee, and I'm currently 24 years old. I write music in my spare time. Thanks for listening :}
