So... I usually try to come up with a little story about each song when I post. This time... I got nothing. It's in 7/8 and there was one section that I screwed up the guitar part about a million times. Other than that? I got nothing. The…

The third song of my socially distant RPM ii: RPMarch 2020 thing or whatever it is. I have this need to try and make 3/4 time rock. This one is okay. Recording the vocals in the car on a Friday morning before work is even weirder than usual…

The second song for my ridiculous post-RPM Challenge album in a month yet again thing. I was working on a guitar part for another song when I played the riff for this by accident. I dropped everything and made sure I had it recorded. I was…

My post-RPM Challenge plan is to just keep going. Here's my first March 2020 Challenge song. I am trying to go much more raw and low-fi than usual. One guitar straight into one amp. No doubling, not extensive overdubs. Same with the vocals…

This song is a bit of a mess, but I think I kinda like it. I have an unwritten rule during recording projects like this that I won't copy and paste sections of guitar tracks. If a song has two verses I will record the guitar parts for the verse…

May 2020 is the fourth straight month I've done an album in a month challenge (RPM Rules) and while I still have one more song in the pipeline, this one makes 10. Four months in a row... over 40 songs... probably a grand total of three riffs…

Not sure if this one is worthy of the 6:00 running time as it's not nearly that much of a prog epic. I think I over did the padding (unintentionally). I could have cut the break in the middle considerably, and the solo at the end could be cut…

This is sort of two songs stuck together. That wasn't the plan, it just sort of happened. The only thing interesting about the noisier first half is the fuzz pedal on the rhythm guitar. Big Muffs really are harder to fit into a mix. I do love…

My song writing happy place is sort of slow to mid tempo dumb rockers. Something like 75-90 beats per minute. Every once in a while I feel the need to shake things up and write something super hyper active. This is an example of that. I also…

If ever there was a song that begged to close an album, it was this turkey. A couple of things here. First, I don't really know what I was going for. Quiet, slow, boring? Probably not boring, but there you go. The cool thing happens in…
