It’s Death metal.. Been working a lot on the World of Shit. My old vocalist and I are actually back in touch and he ended up writing the lyrics and patterns. He actually did a demo of it so my buddy, who always wanted to do vocals, so I said “well here’s your chance to do vox” has been laying down vocals with me. We are making good progress and since this song was essentially done, I had him cut his version. They are 2 quite different vocalists. My “old” vocalist is a pro. He sang in a pretty decent sized band back when they were metal and toured around a bunch and that really elevated his skills behind the mic. But it was hard getting him to complete shit being I’m in Chicago and he’s in Berlin.!
Anyway enoigh if the back story. It’s called “Millions will Die” its 90 seconds long. It’s been in the pipeline for a number of years and finally got er done! I post the lyrics since it’s always fun reading along to death metal!!
As for the recording it was the Evh 5153 el34 blue channel boosted with the 808. I miced and Evh Celestion with a 57 and a Mesa V30 with the Sennheiser 421.

MILLIONS WILL DIE
GET A GUN, A TON OF AMMO
A BOOK ON KILLING, UNDERSTAND
-
AND THEN, WHEN THE TIME COMES
AND EVERYONE RUNS, YOU’RE ABLE TO HUNT
GASOLINE, CANS OF BEANS
SELF ESTEEM, UNDERSTAND
-
AND THEN, WHEN EVERYONE RUNS
AND EVERYONE SHITS, YOU’RE ABLE TO LIVE WITH IT
PILLS AND BOOZE YOU CANT PRODUCE
WIN OR LOSE, UNDERSTAND
-
AND THEN, WHEN EVERYONE SHITS
AND EVERYONE PANICS, YOU’RE ABLE TO BE A DICK
SHIT FOR LUCK, ARMOURED TRUCK,
GIVE A FUCK, UNDERSTAND
-
AND THEN, WHEN EVERYONE PANICS
AND EVERYONE DIES, YOU’RE ABLE TO REALIZE
MILLIONS WILL DIE BY THE HAND
OF THE AI THEY SUMMONED
WHEN A SUPERIOR BEING
SEES EVERYTHING THEY ARE SEEING
MILLIONS WILL DIE AT THE SIGHT
OF THEMSELVES IN THE MIRROR
WHEN MIRRORS ARE SMARTER THAN THEM
THERE WILL BE NO MORE PRETENDING
Millions will Die!!!
New Song¡!

Sounds awesome man!!! Really killer track and production!!
Re: New Song¡!
Thanks brutha-man!!
Yknow back in the day I did a half dozen EPs for friends and THEIR friends. End up being mostly punk stuff. I also did the mix for a doom band. At one point I had real interest in doing that. I actually realized I’m pretty good at being someone “2nd” ears and hearing things like a “producer” would. If I only I wasn’t so stubborn and wanted to write my own, I may have found a lane doing that.
But anyway, I’m open to anything. I wouldn’t say I’m itching to mix other stuff but if you have something, it wouldn’t hurt to show it to me and see. I can gauge if it’s sumthin I can work with pretty quickly.
Re: New Song¡!
Thanks as well! For 90 seconds of music, I spent about 2.5 hours before recording the guitars getting this tone dialed in juuust right. Haha. Which I actually think it was well worth it. Of course what k had was “good “ but it was just my standard. And if I’m putting this shit out, which I’m working on a proper release, really should go above the status quo. And I actually can nail this song fairly easy. I had all 3 rhythm tracks done with 10-15 minutes of playingGuitarbilly wrote: ↑Tue May 28, 2024 6:35 pm Sounds awesome man!!!

I won't even say how long it takes me to record a song but let's just say I count in days not hoursEndtime wrote: ↑Tue May 28, 2024 11:38 pmThanks as well!

Re: New Song¡!
Sounds killer! Vocals sound great. Song is cool. Would listen!
I like 5150s. The rest of you bullshit amps can get fucked.
Re: New Song¡!
We’ll from start to finish? This technically took YEARS! Haha, I wrote this some years ago. But I always wanted to get a proper recording done. I just meant, I spent almost 3 hours just moving mics and testing speakers until I was satisfied that I found the right representation. Then, because I’ve been playing it on/off for so long, I blew out the takes in pretty short orderGuitarbilly wrote: ↑Wed May 29, 2024 12:38 amI won't even say how long it takes me to record a song but let's just say I count in days not hoursEndtime wrote: ↑Tue May 28, 2024 11:38 pmThanks as well!
