Too freakin long. I'm in this one. Just went to an Ace Enders concert Monday and I'm pumped to do some writing. Have lyrics and chord progression already. Hoping to have everything written in a day or two and spend some time mixing.

Good title. My brother is coming to visit me on the 25th, so I'm going to see if maybe I can't concoct something that he and I can collaborate on. :wink:

Seems like an appropriate time to try and come out of remission. We'll see...

I'm stuck in a hospital room for the time being, so it's safe to say I have lots of time to work on this one. Gonna do kind of an electronic orchestral peice, and haven't decided yet whether I want dark, moody vocals, death metal vocals, or no vocals at all.
I've got a better idea. You go in there and talk to him. I'm going home. http://www.facebook.com/#/pages/REFLEKT ... 011?ref=nf

If you're taking a poll, I say you should definitely incorporate all three!

I like this title also, and I've got half a stupid little song in my head already. Given a couple days I hope to have an entire stupid little song.

In, for better or for worse, with the theoretical soundtrack of a theoretical video-game stage.

Oh - like salmon immigration?

I'm picturing Grizzley Bears in hats, squeezed into little booths blocking access across some wild Canadian river - stamping passports and directing tired salmon to join either the "SPAWN" or "LUNCH" queue.

I might enter for this one. I haven't entirely decided if I can write anymore. Everything I write seems forced. Le sigh.

Elaine has done me the honor of guesting on vocals and keys, so we're totally in for this. It's down to the final mix right now...

... and the final mix is good. I'm excited.

Final edit: done and dusted. Get ready to boogie your butts off. In a down-country, bluesy kind of boogie way, that is.

I am disappointed that I have little more but lyric at this point, but maybe everyone will just go to sleep tonight and LEAVE ME ALONE! so I can pull this into shape.
