I'm back! I'm sure you're all happy to see me. >_> I haven't really been too busy to post, I've just been spending way less time on the internet. Of course, that doesn't mean that I have a life now. :p
I feel weird writing lyrics too. I have to write a short story for school and I feel weird doing that too. I'm starting my career as an edgy existentialist writer. 8)
I've wanted to start writing philosophical fiction, actually
You guys and your not posting very much.
I'm working on my singing, and I also have trouble with lyrics. Sometimes I can actually get started on a song, but when I do, for some reason I can only ever come up with two verses and a chorus worth of good lyrics, and everything I write for the third verse is shitty. I have actually never come up with a good third verse, and I've written a decent amount of songs, although I've thrown away most of them because they were impossible for me to sing.
I also have a lot of trouble writing melodies that are good and interesting. Thats the problem with singing, I'm always worrying about the words, and the melody, and my tone, and those are all things I'm not very good at, whereas for guitar I'm only ever worrying about my tone or the notes one at a time. Singing other peoples stuff would help with this problem, but I haven't really figured out my vocal style yet, and most songs are not in my range, so that doesn't really work out.
I'm for the most part the same (except for the lyrics part; I tend to have too many lyrics I like that I wind up not using). Remembering lyrics is practically impossible for me.
I like it, though I think the drums could be better. The guitar sounds pretty good though.
@Danjo I've also recently started working on my singing voice. A friend asked me to help him out with his musical project and he needs a bassist and a female vocalist with a bit of gothic quality to it...if you know what I mean.
@Grungie I agree with Danjo, I really like the overall sound but the drumming needs a little more attention. That song really has potential. Just add some vocals and your golden - it doesn't feel like an instrumental type of song that is why I said it needs vocals.
i swear to god i've ordered 2 things from barnes and noble so far and seriously, the first order didn't go through so i had to talk to some tech support guy to place a new order with the gift card and if the savagely beat saying "order can't be placed" is true i'm gonna murder someone
oo hey it's not screwed up anymore and the tech support guy fucked up and put all my order on the gift card
now i don't have to pay the extra 12.00 XD

I have no clue how to write drum lines, I might listen around to see how to write one that will fit. I don't know how to make it more interesting or better, cuz I can't think of any other kind of rhythm that sounds good unless you have some tips.
I just noticed that I have an affinity for rats.
It's shame they live like, a year and a half :\
