Liner Notes

I used a Boss Super Octave OC-3 for the bass, Nobels ODR-1 on guitars, Sonic Cake Levitate reverb and Boss DD-8 Delay. I changed from an M-Audio Sputnik to a TLM-103 which seems to work pretty good for my vocals.

Lyrics

it’s been a helluva a day
all i’ve seen is red
i shoulda rolled on over
and played dead
i shoulda rolled on over
and played dead

i wish i wasn’t awake
i wish i wasn’t awake
i wish i wasn’t awake
i wish i wasn’t awake

it’s been a helluva day
i lost my brain
i shoulda stopped my mind
for once this time

i wish i wasn’t awake
i wish i wasn’t awake
i wish i wasn’t awake
i wish i wasn’t awake
i wish i wasn’t awake

when i opened my eyes
i shoulda’ drawn the blinds
blankets over my head
yeah!

i wish i wasn’t awake
i wish i wasn’t awake
i wish i wasn’t awake
dumb.
i wish i wasn’t awake
fuckin’ dumb.
i wish i wasn’t awake
so fuckin’ dumb.
i wish i wasn’t awake
i’m so fuckin’ dumb.

Very catchy riff and rocking groove! The vocal effects really do work well for this style. I love the repeated chorus, a very punk thing as is the loudness. Conjures some of the 70's garage rock to mind, which I am a big fan of.

a full-throttle dive into headbanging depression

This song 100% speaks to my mood today. Great work with the recording. I love the overlapping vocals at the end, that's a great tension builder.

I'm really digging this one. I just wrote an(other) insomnia tune and then I saw this title and couldn't resist. Then I get this rocking piece of candy.

Whoa dude this kicks ass. I love the ascending and descending within the chord progression. It’s punch rock a billy that just punches you in the gut and doesn’t give two fucks about it. Nice!

@frenchcricket 2w

That bass riff is so deliciously filthy. Really enjoyed this garage-psych trip! Thanks for inviting us

@joshalmond 2w

Damn that's good! I like the production, and I used to have one of those OC3's!

@shakedown_jesus 2w

That's a great groove. The cleanish guitars piercing through the fuzz riff is a nice touch!

@gwynjones 2w

Those 'Rock Hands' being put to great use here!

@speakk 2w

Hell yes I love the energy in this. Such a nice combo of dry and slap-back and reverb in this, makes for a focused sound but full of character along with the drive in the guitar etc.

Great playing too!
