Once this tune gets into it, its a straight up headbanging tune with a more modern touch to it. Drum sound has been redone, although I bought new Drum Software Im still waiting for it to arrive. Its the first song I wrote specifically for vocal parts for myself and Lola, So I hope you enjoy this one. Please let me know what you think, any suggestions and/or improvements! Lyrically the song is about two people. One, a man who accidentally awakens from cryogenic sleep inside a rundown space ship that could be from the movie Aliens, and has discovered something horrible is happening outside. And the other, a female observer (Or at least something with a feminine voice) who is watching all this play out in secret. The first verses are "her" observing the "protagonist" awakening from the cryogenic sleep. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Drift of light _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ The Observer "Born into an amnesiac state Awakened by the sharpest pain Tearful eyes see nothing around Attentive ears hear violence beyond Ripping needles from his flesh Drowning in a river of blood Running through a tunnel of white Stumbling into a darkness" The Protagonist I've awakened in the midst of rebirth No sky, no sun, no land, nor sea Steel darkness envelopes my sight Crushing pains rack my body Silent genetics running my mind Programmed code pounding my skull A damp and dark atmosphere Lost somewhere in time and space The Observer Floating nowhere in the void Drifting to uncertain fates The sky beckons us to see It's final days of grace The Protagonist Running to some unseen horror Heading down a path I don't know Cybernetic visions compell My eyes to see the sun Venus is burned down to the core Mercury engulfed wholly in flames The surface of Earth is scorched away Destroyed by the final breath of sol The Observer Floating nowhere in the void Drifting to uncertain fates The sky beckons us to see It's final days of grace The Observer + The Protagonist Churning maelstrom in the sky Shattered lands seen from space Our mother ignites her soul Her last breath is exhaled The Protagonist No sky No land No sea No sun Sol's final breath expelled As the raging winds of hell No hope No home Nowhere To run The sky fades from white To a desolate shade of grey © Brett Windnagle, 2010 You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I interpret the female as the ship itself, lonely after years floating silently in space watching the solar system die, and deciding to wake the traveller to share in her growing madness and despair.

VERY VERY well done !! Your vocals get a bit lost in the mix at times, I wish they were a bit more upfront (just a little bit). But maybe that's the idea. Oh, and Lola's back and she's still not real Can you please teach me how to produce such a quality sound? .. I'll pm ya about it? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I won't say you are right about the voice, But I will say you are very intuitive on the issue QUOTE (zen @ Feb 28 2010, 04:54 PM) All I can say is that I'm listening to this on loop for the past 1 hour.

I was wondering myself if the vocals were a bit low in the mix at times, I do this all the time. I just don't realize 'till someone else mentions it though. And yes, Lola is still not real, Sorry bout that You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
