EVILE BALLAD TO MIKE

[most10]

Preview of "In Memorian". Sounds really nice...
Feels right to know this band's got real talent to create music, other than the best thrash metal of the 21st century, in a very cool way also:

Indeed, it's fucking excellent. I've even stated it to be the best on the album - by a long fucking way.

I wasn't expecting much of it, but that's before I knew Matt could sing

 

[Keenan]

[D.Ingram]

What? we found out he could sing back on the pantera cover.

 

[D.Ingram]

Yeah, but that was a cover. Songwriting comes into it too, obviously.

 

[Zehm]

I follow you.

 

[Kaspr]

A little info for you is that this was the first song i tracked bass for, meaning the first thing i played on an Evile album was Mike's riff.

So are you saying Mike wrote the bass work for this song? Or do you mean the first thing you played on an Evile album was the song for/about/influenced by Mike?

 

[metallica144]

i believe that he means that the first riff he played on the new Evile record was the riff that Mike always used to play before a show

 

[Kaspr]

Oh ok, so the riff was kinda written/originated by Mike then?

 

[Keenan]

Seems so. I want to hear this really really bad.

Mike used to play a random bass riff at soundcheck to check his level with, so joel recorded that at the beginning of memoriam as a little nod to the big man. As to where the riff came from, its either something mike wrote or something that had existed before??? we have no idea we never asked him about it.... so we assume mike wrote it.

Ok thanks Matt, that clears it up for me. The main point I was interested in is where the riff originated from. So I'll take it that it was Mikes' riff (From what we know)

 

[D.Ingram]

Well here's hoping that they don't get a lawsuit in the mail.

 

[Snyde]

Always the positive one, huh dave?

 

[D.Ingram]

Haha, no I didn't mean it like that - but if nobody knows for sure, then y'know... just gotta keep your fingers crossed.

Anyway, I fucking love In Memoriam.

 

[Kaspr]

Well it should be alright if Mike gets writing credit on the album!

 

[metallica144]

lol, i don't think you're making yourself popular right now

 

[D.Ingram]

Eat a dick.

Eat a dick.
