Cool! &mdash 06/01/07 - 08:12:39 PM
Reminds me of a hard rock version of Duran Duran, nice notes

Duran Duran, eh? &mdash 06/02/07 - 12:42:01 AM
Never had that comparison before,
but I'll be your electric barbarella
if need be. Thanks for listening.

If you find yourself lacking finesse, a big rock will usually make a sufficient substitute.

Like it &mdash 06/02/07 - 05:01:34 AM
it have a sort of Rush feelings.... NICE DONE :D)

I wish that I could play as sharply &mdash 06/02/07 - 11:16:51 AM
as Rush. Unfortunately, I'm too quickly distracted to pull that off as well as I'd like.

thanks for listening skean,

RIff &mdash 06/02/07 - 05:17:24 PM
I detect and approve of the polish. I like the main riff a lot. The middle part provides some interesting tension. Percussion is right on. Thanks for sharing.

Your approval is appreciated, &mdash 06/02/07 - 05:50:47 PM
but did you notice any of the spit?

Thanks for listening,

I feel gobbed - but not to Polish &mdash 06/02/07 - 06:25:01 PM
This has such a great lo tech prog feel - really reminds me of Henry Cow and Fred Frith etc. Like King Crimson off the steroids meets knotty players on the lower east side circa 1986.

I can't see the picture all that well - but the plant on the left looks like mint - and if the other thing has anything to do with figs I'll be damned. I do like the band title.

You close to being damned, &mdash 06/03/07 - 11:13:12 AM
but the picture on the right isn't anything about figs.
Keep guessin'
