I HATE the clickthrough mentality of fuppin websites.

e.g. in Gaming Parlance: On front page of Eurogamer "Dishonoured release date announced" but you have to click through to the page to find out what the date actually is. And don't get me start on "top 10s" that come on ten separate pages.

You cocking fuckbag mothershitters.
If in doubt, put the kettle on.

Been working on this for about just over a week, first recorded thing I've ever done vocals on and there's a few timing errors and whatnot but aye. It'd be pretty cool if yous gave it a listen :)

My girlfriend who's more into that sort of thing, did enjoy that. As it's not to my tastes, I can't really pass judgement myself but well done Gugly.

Fixed...

I listened to about 5 seconds before turning it off. It really isn't my cuppa, though I'll pass the link on to my nephew who loves this sort of stuff.

I think it's pretty good actually Gug, vocals are good. Did you do the shouts yourself or did you just autotune it (Either way, they're good anyway)?

And Gug you wonder why you get called a 12 year old Emo girl? :wink:

The guitar work was class, but the shouting to me is just not my thing.

There's no autotune involved aha. It wasn't all in one vocal take though hence a few little timing errors, but they can be fixed easy enough. :)


Glad some of you sort of don't dislike it. :wink:

On Christmas eve
'Gunna buy a goldfish
I'll call him Steve.
Oh Steve why can't you see,
You're the only fish for me?
Why won't they let us be?
We could just live in the sea.
It's you and me,
Me and Steve
Living life to the highest extremes
We could be, we could be
Diving into our destiny.
Oh Steveeeeee,
Oh Steveeeeee.


STEVE.

Just had a listen to this Gug. Although it's not really my sort of thing I can appreciate that you've all got some skills.
My girlfriend (who is the real metal fan of the house and knows her sh1t) was impressed with your vocals. In her words... 'Although most people hate those kind of vocals it is something which is very hard to do and get to sound right but he can do it'.
Can't be too bad if it impressed her mate :)
