OFF: New song "Parallax" by Espada Negra (on the Hawkwindy side!)

[Abra Cadabra]

Also check out King BathMat and the spinoff Arcade Messiah. Alot like
a VERY progressive Gabriel Genesis meets math-post-riff Tool, Tool not
being my cuppa except "46 and 2", but i really liked these after
getting some promo emails and grabbed them for free. Maybe depressing
but a theatrical element like the first Arcade Fire album as well (NOT
my generation hehe).

>>>>>>>> Yeah ;) "Afterburner" is _very_ self-consciously a tribute to a lot of things in the stoner/space genres that I love: the main verse chorus riffs are really a mash-up of "Master of the Universe", "Gardenia", the Open Mind's "Magic Potion" as covered by Sun Dial, and "Blue Snow"-era Orange Goblin, while bits of the bridge are basically riffs lifted from "Dopes to Infinity" at a different tempo. ;)  It has the "stop-start" thing from "Master of the Universe" as well. ;)  And the same John Glenn sample used in Hawkwind's "The Phenomenon of Luminosity" .... ;)
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> "Afterburner" was really my first home-recording effort, with the basic tracks recorded about 10 years ago now on the Roland VS-1680 I had then (though remixed more recently). All the guitars and bass used the built-in amp models! Actually, I'm not sure I've ever since got as useful a bass tone as I did out of those then. It sounds rubbish if you solo it :D but it suited the mix very well. :D

>>>>>>>> I've sometimes thought about trying to redo the vocals an octave higher, but I'm not sure I can manage it. Still that might be better ... or I could try to get Dave Wyndorf to sing it. ;)
