Enjoyed the bass line in this one, the story in Matte Finish and what I'll call the blueish/folk sound of American Ashtray. The vocals in each have the sound of ol' bluesers and rockers, enjoyable.

the good family needs to go on tour! the vocals are awesome. it was a great workin with yall on the rpm. hope my butt print will come out of your orange chair.lol. looking forward to our next project!

And, as requested, here are the lyrics:
I'm Not Afraid
You can blow me up
You…

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…
I couldn't resist crossing swords with Alex on this deft song of his which left me quite touchéd!
*Inspired in part at least by accidental meat on meat.*
Here's the original track.
My take on Hearts Of Mars song Net Negative Impact. I strongly recommend you go listen to there original version here on Alonetone.
Thanks for letting me cover it guys.
