u know who u are !!!!!!!!!

Lyrics:
trendsetter
are you any better
than me X4
attention seek
u come across as piss weak

they copy your styles when they see it in a catalogue
your the leader, come on now go walk the dogs
being yourself used to be so much easier
dont beat yourself up, just blame the media
they gotta sell. And sell sell, they do it well
they pull your leash like a bitch of society
if were all diferent does that makes us all the same
something in common other than to throw the blame

chorus x 4

but is it niche if ya see it on the t.v
how long does it take for others to copy
your monkey suit with sweat shop exuberance
your mindset retails for dollars but not much sense
crack baby suicide labels will be the death
rip off the past cause you know that theres nothing left
set the trend like an arrogant american
when will it be cool to sing like an idiot

like…………. me
anti-
trendy

does this mean that what u see
is genuinely only skin deep
what the hell are we trying to achieve
wearing our money so proudly on our sleeve

chorus x 4

The Residents go punk &mdash 01/03/06 - 03:19:28 PM
Rockin' tune. It's such a strange cross between different styles. It's like
The Residents went punk. It's cool, but I don't know if I could listen to
too much more at once without getting a little weary of those vocal
effects. Would be nice if it didn't just cut off at the end. Still, a great
offering to the Punk/Grunge library here at MJ.

This is one of those tunes I just don't know how to vote on. I'll just say it
would be positive.

I couldn't agree with Peter more on this. Definitely rockin'. For me,
sounds like The Residents meets Zappa meets Cardiacs. I also think it's
cool, but I would get a little weary of the vocal effect if it went on much
longer. I like the sudden change of style near the end but, again like
Peter, I wish it didn't cut off at the end. Overall, great stuff!

very nice &mdash 01/04/06 - 05:14:55 AM
another very nice offering. I like the blending of styles with the groovy bassline contrasting the almost thrashing parts. Some elements remind me a bit of Converge, then others bring the Clash to mind. Excellent lyrics again. This song could use some refining of the production IMO but otherwise it's pretty cool.

you are your own thing &mdash 01/23/06 - 05:47:27 PM
Great chorus. I wish I knew more about production so that I could give
you some meaningful help. I can tell that this one needs some, but I
wouldn't know where to begin.

Maybe if you gave real info in the hardware/software fields someone could offer
some informed advice.

Fantastic &mdash 03/11/06 - 07:56:54 AM
What an awesome song with a whole lot of energy, particulary love that
chorus and I normally hate screamed vocals... but here it really works
well and I quite like the vocal effect you've got here.

Though the production isn't all that bad... it unfortunately pretty
average compared to the rest of the song. There's a couple of things
that could be done to really bring this track out... for starters... the
song is effectively in mono... theres almost no stereo variation which
makes this song sound a bit small and muddled... also you're not
focusing on some of the parts of the sounds you should... the biggest
thing being that that your kick drum and bass guitar are quite trebly.

To your credit though, how the song is now, the levels are pretty much
perfect... but with a bit more in the way of post-production you could
push things so much more and end up with a really fat track.

there is merit to this music in my humble opinion. There is an honest
energy expressing valid observations and some pretty impressive
musicianship as well.
