Hey all,
As the title says, I sponsored a local Battle of the Bands. This was to benefit a suicide prevention hot line.... ....a cause that's pretty close to my heart as I had a good friend and bandmate kill himself 2 days before Christmas of 1995.
So, when the organizers asked me if I'd be interested, I jumped at the chance. I gave away 10 hours of studio time.... figuring it would be enough to lay down at least one song.
Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised by the winners. This isn't metal by any stretch of the imagination.... it's funk-rock. These guys really stood out among the numerous cookie-cutter screamo bands.
As for the recording, it's 100% real. No autotune, no sample replacement, no amp sims, hell, we didn't even use a metronome! I was especially impressed with the drummer. Great technique... lots of finesse. ...and he's only 16.
Here it is: First song on the player:
Nuclear Sunrise - Come in from the Cold.
