Reminds me a bit if the Sundays which are a favorite of mine. vocalist is nice. Off Topic: Love the Sundays too. I will check this vid out. Everyone gushes about Harriet (rightfully so) but Dave Gavurin is/was a fantastic guitar player as well.

Some pretty good samples here folks. I applaud your efforts absolutely!

Here's a link to another little project I'm in. Gingham Dog is more symphonic progressive (Neo) as opposed to the more metal Cryptonomicon.

This is one of those never ending things that is constantly evolving and also, these samples are quite old. The Myspace link has a 15 minute version of one of the songs represented. Thanks for any "likes" or positive feedback...

Good listen, very mature-sounding.

For the past year or so, I have been working on an important piece of music, which really has been a long hard journey. I started recording in November for a demo and did all of the guitar work and drums. Over the past month or two, my brother Jay (who goes under the name PrismEye on here) added bass and keyboards (along with some preliminary mixing and fixing my stupid errors).

 

Though I have yet to record my vocals for the song yet, we have decided to unveil a working demo of the song. Of course, there are some fixes to the mix to be made and other things to be added, but we felt it was in a state to "road test" it on you guys.

 

Although I have had many different influences throughout, my primary ones would have to be the guitar work of Andrew Latimer (his use of the harmonic minor scale is absolutely beautiful) and Allan Holdsworth (perhaps the greatest guitar player to walk the earth).

 

"The Man In The Background" begins with the sounds of guitar chords fading in (resembling an organ or keyboard sound). The first 7 or so minutes of the piece are very much fusion based, which is how I've been writing recently. Throughout, there is a progressive edge to the song, with varying time signatures and instrumentation. The second 2/3 of the song are composed of a very progressive solo section which, in addition to vocals to be added later, features several guitar, synth, and bass solos. I hope you all enjoy it, and please let me know what you think!

 

You can hear the song and download it here.

 

Some highlights to listen for in the song:

 

0:00- Beginning of the song (duh!), but also faded in guitar chords

0:44- Introduction of rest of instruments

3:10- First Synth Solo

4:07- Start of 6/8 section, featuring harmonized guitar interplay

6:55- Guitar parts that sound like the howling in hades

8:55- Crazy odd time signatures synth solo

9:28- Crazy odd time signatures guitar solo

11:49- Bass solo featuring fretted and fretless bass playing

12:37- 2nd guitar solo (harmonic minor solo)

14:01- Section that Jay calls "hell" because there are so many harmonizing guitar parts that it made mixing a living hell

15:03- Final guitar solo

19:26- Return of the main theme

19:55- Big, out of key, final chord

20:12- End

Been meaning to upload something for a while, and finally got round to it.

It's instrumental guitar stuff, just me playing all the parts alongside some programmed drums.

Please take a listen, if you'd be so kind.

Hi guys, I'm making a bunch of songs under "The Booger Myers Band" name. Which is just me for now (maybe forever who knows hah). Anyhow my stuff is probably a cross between Prog Rock with no awesome guitar solos and Weird Al Yankovic. This is my 1st video for the project called "Gold-Plated Lobster". It's about how a guy gets screwed when his date asks for the most expensive thing on the menu.

 

I'm pretty brand-new to writing prog music but I love it to death (Rush and DT are big influences of mine even if I can't play it).

 

Thanks for checking it out!!

BTW this reminds me of Primus. Lyrics and singing is very goofy :)

 

but I really do like the jam / solo section... It's something pretty fresh, and I'd like to listen to on my own time. Very original, great job.

Thanks a lot man, that's a huge compliment! Les is the whole reason I started playing bass in the first place waaaaaaaay back in '91. My buddy who was into death metal and stuff played me Jerry Was a Racecar Driver and I couldn't believe a bass could be played in that way. Been practicing ever since and I'm so glad I learned how because it's great fun still.

 

The weird part is Gold-Plated Lobster is one of the more "serious" songs I have too. I'll try to post something more goofy for next time, you'll see hahaha :dweez:

[Del_Duio]

Here's another one called Pippa, a song about a little pug with big plans of world domination.

Annnnnnnnd here's one more called Plutonium Park. It used to be an instrumental I did back in 2001 but I added some cheery nuclear holocaust lyrics to it and re-recorded it the other day. It's not so much as video as a still w/ the song but the words are on here just the same.

Here's a short one about the dangers of MMORPG addiction. If you know anything about these types of games the words are pretty funny. I used to be way too much into Everquest so I have a lot of inside info or whatever hahaha.

Lyrics:

 

I can't wait to get home from work

I hope the patch won't make my gear all nerfed

They're going on a massive raid

My $15.99 a month's been paid

 

Who needs to sleep or wash the dishes?

My longsword's god-damned magical, bitches!

They got the cleric with the epic wep

The dragon's gonna' make short work of 'em yet

 

I went into the cave of doom

But the guildleader said that they didn't have room!

 

They're going on a massive raid

Who needs to sleep or get themselves laid?

They've been camping this MOB for hours

Holding their pee, skipping their showers

 

Who needs to vacuum, this apartment's fine

All my closest friends are online

If I leave now I'll be AFK

I'll miss the spawn and that'll be gay

 

I went into the cave of doom

But the guildleader said that they didn't have room!

 

I'm level 23 with twinked out gear

For past raids I'm always at the rear

I wait for epic-grade loot to fall

Run to the front and ninja it all!

 

Then everybody starts to scream and shout

But I just LOL and log the f**k out

I do this same thing all the time

Who gives a shit when your life's online?

 

I went into the cave of doom

But the guildleader said that they didn't have room!

[Del_Duio]

Here's one I wrote and recorded in a few hours today. This should be pretty impossible to play and sing but oh well.

I'm on SoundCloud as Cael2107 if anyone's interested enough to find me?

 

I'm taking quite a bit of stuff off now, making room for the album-like thing I'm making with my iPad and GarageBand. It's just me and a couple of guitars, nothing fancy
