VOLA - Friend of a Phantom

Well, I like "More." I really like it. Maybe its just this song and the way they mixed it. I think its a great song but I don't like the backing vocals in the chorus. The live version buries that back in the mix and I think it sounds better. I also think "The Big Money," "Marathon," and "Mission" are way better sounding songs on A Show of Hands than they are on the albums. Art is subjective.

Much better song live. The chorus backing vocals give it too much of a "pop" sound. I liked the main riff as soon as I heard it but the chorus was a let down. I almost think it would have been better to use some textured keys instead of the vocals during that part. This is where the live version shines. The backing vocal tracks are way back in the mix and almost sound like keys. much more toned down and it makes the song straight up rock. Maybe they will remix it down the line.

In remembrance, everyone should run next door and bang their neighbor, fight their neighbor or both.

So, what I am getting is that the program worked better in earlier betas. They neutered the bot....

Oops!

I don't know why at this point, especially if you were a somewhat established act, you wouldn't just self-promote on you tube or similar apps and just offer your lossless audio files for download on your own web site. f**k the record companies.

They have three albums, and they are all really strong. Some a bit "progy" even. Definitely a gifted ear for good hooks. Just a breath of fresh air when compared to other new and young rock bands.

Wow. I remember seeing the videos of them doing Enter Sandman and Back in Black some years ago when the bass player was shorter than the bass she was playing. I am impressed with how far they have come. Tight sound and very good songwriting for being so young.

That he even thought to try it was amazing. Oh, and f**k Denny Hamlin while we are at it!

Resident Alien. It's like Northern Exposure meets Third Rock from the Sun. Very entertaining. Also started Modern Family which reminds me of a much smarter "dysfunctional family" show called Life in Pieces. It's still funny.

You are killing me here.

Congrats brother!

I tend to think so but I have been wrong in the past.
