it's getting hard to find these gems among all this hotmeatballs 40909029-07 rot. Luckily.. I'm dedicated and trawled through it all. Was worth it. Great track here. Right up my street. Honest, true, simple, and brilliant
This is really a true story.
No, really...
And our holiday gift to you & your friends. (Feel free to download it and share it with anyone who you think might enjoy it.)
Oh... by the way... acl is finally waking from a very deep slumber…
This is my big production number from my 2009 RPM Challenge album "Relative Polyphonic Mutiny" that features Philly rapper Marvelous. It's a rockin uptempo affair that has a beat you can dance to.
Like Rob and Laura, I can't believe that this album is the product of a month's work, fantastic stuff. And this is the standout song for me. And really nice cover too, maybe I'll stop praising you now! :-)
somewhere around 3 minutes you should here the sound of people chopping down a tree in the Peruvian Amazon turn into the beat of the song. This song was somewhat influenced by Kim Hiorthøy.

love this! and yeah, the surf guitar was cool. uhh uhhhh uhhh uhhhhhh uhhhh like its so cool. uhhh hhhhhh uhh uhhhhhhh (don't you just love Beavis and Butthead?! Reminded me of them)
This is maybe the first track written entirely by This Caustic Autumn as a group effort. I'd been to see Sigur Ros play at Massey Hall in Toronto the night before we wrote this, so that's where the idea for the bowed Les Paul came from. Other…
This is the first cover song I've ever really recorded in my 15 years of playing and recording.
The guitar and voice are each full continuous takes, I didn't want to do comping (copy and pasting), though the vocal harmony parts were done in…
Wow, thanks for everyone's comments and thanks for the link Rewind, listening to it now. I went to uni in Glasgow for a year and loved it and always love going back. If you spend any time there it reeks of atmosphere. Good luck with your homage, look forward to hearing it!
