nihilistic? yes. horribly so? not at all. Quite a catchy anthem, in fact. defeatist? possibly ... it depends ..whatcha gonna do about it, eh?
it is kind of ironic being nihilistic *about* a revolution tho ;-)
good track, i loved where the drums pick up in the middle
Colin, this newest batch of songs you're posting are just outstanding, particularly regarding your vocals... Just great without a note out of place. My daily dose of new Colin has been and will continue to be a welcome distraction from the day.
Everyday Heroes

What if i told you there were everyday heroes
That walked along side of us all
Holding it together though hell n high water
Always there to answer the call
I’m pretty sure that’s your brother
I’m betting…

Joe Silence - guitars and vocals
Mark Cook - Chapman Stick, fretless bass, synthesizers

I just cant shake it no

My first completed 2013 RPM track. Thanks to Kavin for turning a simple acoustic song into what you hear today.

RPM 2011 number 2. Inspired by an ex-friend of mine who had the most dazzling rose tinted glasses. Always used to envy the simplicity of his view and how nothing could ever get to him (everything gets to me).. since i knew him I know a lot of…
Really wanted to try and learn what i would consider one of the best lead guitar solos of all time, recorded this in early 2010 and it's my effort at learning the solo. Hope you enjoy it.
Thanks to Colin for writing, performing and producing this song, and for letting me mod it. I think it's a great tune, benefits from an uptempoing. This is Hot Wheels Spaulding reimagining Colin's song 'The View'
I fused 3 tracks, 'Tapping water', 'Sweet dream', and 'Every where I go', in my mini hadron collider in the basement, and this is the result.
It may need a little longer in the oven, and few burnt bits sanding off.
Inspired by and in collaboration with [My First Dictionary](http://myfirstdictionary.blogspot.com), [Ali Kilpatrick](http://veryusartists.com/alikilpatrick) & [John LaSala](http://veryusartists.com/johnlasala) waltz their way through the ups…
I was inspired by the music of a friend of mine, their band is called Aradhna and you might like to check them out. I've attempted to compose a song in the Hindi language and here it is.
The words are very simple
Union with Jesus

Another angry song. My boss once handed me a spreadsheet about cost prices from vendors and said "I don't like the way this looks". I wondered if the upper management looked at salary costs the same way, and that led to this song.
This is my most angry song.
