This Train Ain't Bound For Glory


Get Flash to see this player.

Description
"I'd like to welcome you aboard the train to hell. I know some of you were expecting to be BOUND FOR GLORY aboard the train you see to your right, but rest assured that you are on board the right train and that this train AIN'T bound for glory. If you are dissappointed, I am happy to hear that.
Our trip to the underworld is not an express trip today because we have a lot of stops to make on the way. Among other stops, we'll pick up a dictator in Africa, a few suicide bombers in Iraq, a Columbian drug dealer, and we need to make a stop or two in Washington DC. If the speed of our trip seems slow remember that it is not how FAST you get to hell that is important but HOW LONG you spend there. If we had seats you could sit back and relax during the trip, but I guess you'll just have to stand. I know there is not much room on board but I don't apologize for the overcrowding ... you'll just have to get used to the discomfort."

hellishly good
bill - you make darn good exciting music. i don't know if it's reading your DESCRIPTION that makes the story come alive - but i hear/see it as plainly as you've laid it out. the synth pattern you use throughout is subtle but effective. cool percussion, among many other cool components. i enjoyed my ride to hell. ;) anne

Don't you love that pic?
The times have changed, as evidenced by the picture, that's for sure.Thanks for the comments. I really wanted to stay away from the blowing whistle as a direct sound. It may be sort of implied on some of the synth chords but not strongly. Hey ... if you want to lay a guitar solo over top of this feel free. ;-)

Unnerving description
I almost regretted I pushed the play-button, but hey, this is a really nice piece of music, very good percussion, nice flow, arrangement, everything. Could be interesting to hear what vbluesky could make of a solo guitar over it, but this stands really good as is too. Thanks!

Ooh, this is so very good. Extremely atmospheric. Definitely goes on my favorite list, and the download goes in my Garageband playlist in iTunes! A BIG thumbs up!
