Philipso - there are moments in this when it veers far too close to electro-Tull for my tastes. All it needs is a flute solo. LOL you are so right! I am not in the least bit offended and actually flattered, maybe J Tull isn't cool but I LOVE them! It's that 2nd part of the verse where on the open D...

John Eric - I like the singing, melody is good. Music is too repetitive and that hesitation thing in the main riff drives me a bit nuts. However I really like the piano solo. The Be-box percussion I don’t really care for, good ole drums would’ve sounded a lot nicer. It’s a cool tune. Lon Bobb...

by Kari & Glen Phillips What a Horrible Thing to Say (Glen): I can’t believe what I just heard What a horrible thing to say I don’t you meant it, it’s too absurd I’ll come back when you feel OK (Girl): How did you get my address Glen? Do I have to call the police? I’ll tell you again, ...

Ben Krieger - I really like this one a lot. It has a really strong chorus. The loud bass with the Steve Harris EQ is cool. I'm not sure, but I think I'd like to hear the guitars a bit more. Nice track! Chin Music - I like the slide sound with the chorusy effect, very Zeppy. I'll 2nd the notion that...

Congrats GLO! or is it Gio? Anyway, great track and a deserved victory! Please keep the strings coming!

Beatnik Turtle - This is the funniest song in the fight for me. The Latin towards the end really cracks me up. It’s a catchy ditty. The guitar playing is great, especially the 1st frantic solo. Chuck Chuck Moose - Great guitar playing, great vocal stylings, wonderful voice. Nice melody. The lyric...

14 entries, lot's of great rockin' stuff here. Tough tough choices. Carpetburn - Off the bat one of the strongest entries. I especially like the Minus the Bear clean tap guitar, though there are 2 wrong notes (to my ears) it strikes me weird at 2:16 and again at 2:46, was that deliberate? Otherwise ...

REVIEWS: Covered in Bugs The Older Brothers Quite new to the scene, this is the third song for The Older Brothers, each having been submitted in the last month. Their upbeat and inspired song is the kind of thing you'd listen to on your front porch, Corona with lime in hand, on a hot summer day. It...

Good Job Ryan, that's a damn good song and recording!!!

Book Club - Solid production. Chord pattern isn't very interesting to me, but the guitar sounds good. The lyrics are cute, I like the kid. The female deadpan delivery doesn't do it for me, I really like the male vox however. King Arthur - Well my daughter (10 months) likes this one best. She stops ...

I usually like to take in the lot of songs over a few days then review, but I'm on my 3rd round of listening, it's Saturday morning, and I have the time. Beatnik Turtle - This is catchy, and fun. All the background vocal stylings really make this one for me. Very cool. Ben Wong - Well I think you ha...

I just want to congratulate Beefy, it's a damn good tune! We (Phillipso) don't mind losing to a gem like this.

I think posting on the website is a good thing, I don't see how exposure to all of our music could be a bad thing.

Beefy- The music is really groovy! This "beat" stays in my head long after I listen. The rap has a very mid 80's rap kind of affectation. I generally don't like the genre, but this track transcends my bias and I like it a lot. Bewells- Good down home folky country strumming on the guitar. ...

Undulating oil blob Relic of the flower mob A tacky piece of bric-a-brac We felt a void We brought you back Lava lamp Oh lava lamp 40-watt orb at swinger’s camp Chorus: I see the colors I know the way I found Enlightment Floating at bay Jelly art within a glass tomb A nice addition to the room A f...

Wages- You have a great voice! You're a great singer. However every submission the guitar playing ruins it for me. Can you track the guitar with a click track? Then sing solidly as you do over it? Anyway, it's particularly upsetting because there's soooo much potential , but the execution of your en...

She'll growl when she likes you She'll flap her arms to get attention She wants you to stand up ..and use only vowels to speak She's Not Exactly Normal She's exactly weird She's exacting and there's nothing that she fears... except the phone She'll play a mean sonata on the Hammond organ Sing a song...

Dust Pipe- This is my band. I'm the one responsible for the lyrics, guitar playing and mix down and edits. We are an improv band for better or worse. Luckily the song titles were posted and we were able to riff off of them. I'm pleased with the result, though there's room for a world of improvement....
