The Fight Has Begun
Posted April 18, 2008
Each new song we’ve ever had the privilege of writing/recording/releasing has been an experiment of some kind.
We’ve played around with different sounds, genres, and even song lengths. However, our newest song, “Battle Cry”, is even more of an uncertainty than anything else we’ve produced in the past.
1. Never before have we written a song that lasts eight full minutes.
2. Never before have we had an intro that lasts two minutes.
3. Never before have we recorded a song with violins and strings in it.
4. Never before have we had to change some of the melodies at the last minute while in the studio.
We certainly hope that we’ve succeeded in making a song that someone can relate to.
Something catchy, even.
Something you’ll be subconsciously humming throughout the day.
Only then will we feel like we’ve accomplished what we’ve set out to do.
A song is only as good as the listeners think it is, though…so what do YOU think about Battle Cry?
We want to know. Honestly.
It doesn’t matter if you love it wholeheartedly, or if you hate it with every fiber in your being: your voice needs to be heard, so we can adjust our techniques for all the songs we plan on composing in the future.
Leave us a comment, either here in this blog, or on our page---constructive reviews are always appreciated.
Much love, and even more new music,
Levi, Nate, and Gunner.
PS: for better sound quality, listen to the song on our myspace. Thanks.
