Hey Gab's Army members!! I'm starting this thread to share an idea and to know if you would be interested in doing it!

I was thinking that we could create an album that includes one song of each Army's member. It doesn't matter if it's a 30 minutes tune, 1 minute, 3 minutes piece... neither if it's acoustic, electric, electronic. We would work on each track at your own thread for the army. Then we can create a cover art and upload everything as an album to any server where everybody can download our album.

What do you think of this idea?

So fresh idea !!
Eventhought I'm not in your army

Thanks mate!

Great idea, this is gonna be awesome!

Cool mate! I remember that we discussed a bit about this in the first Army's thread!
Let's see what everybody says...

Sounds like a GREAT idea! I have not ever used drum programming so I'll have to look into that. I do have a bass that I can dust off!

sounds really cool great idea.

Sounds cool Gabriel. I've been a little MIA from the Army thread (still practicing that same lesson though) but plan to really get going again. My only issue is recording a backing track. I don't have a bass or any kind of drum programming.

Awesome idea though. I would love to hear everybody's songs.

That's a great idea Gab!

Excellent! Please share the idea at your thread!








I can help you with that!

Right on Gabriel. Let's do this!

That sounds awesome!!!

Cool guys!! Please start thinking on what you would like to create for this album!

Cool Man I wanna be in!!!

I'm in, I'm in, I'm in.... cool idea

Awesome guys!! Let's start discussing this in your threads!

My recording laptop has finally given up, and I've only got a netbook at the moment.

I should be up and running for the 2nd album!

Ok! Keep me updated about this! Can't you record with the netbook? Are you sure?

Here is something i am working on for the album

It sounds cool man! I like that rhythm! Are you planing to do an instrumental piece?

I got lyrics for it but i cant really sing and i can record vocals

Ok, let's search for any singer guest here at the forum, or maybe any instructor that can sing.... do you have any idea?

I'll try and sing on my track for the album, It'll be fun (and good I hope)

Ize, I would go for Bruce Dickinson if he is available

Good idea i will give him a call

Cool man! Let's talk with Bruce! or maybe with his son.

I think I did an ok song (not all done yet).
BUT... the lyrics are hard for me to make.
I wanted to do something serious,
but for now it's just a fun story about,
my feelings for HEAVY METAL MUSIC
(Except I don't have a tattoo)

VERSE:
Gather around children it's time you learn some sense
I should have told you younglings, I'll have to make amends
Now here comes a story about a speciel guy
Raised by a tv you could see it in his eyes
He wears a leather jacket his tattoo looks like a scull
He is a loner but he does not seem to care

BRIDGE:
They can burn my records and cut my hair
the passion for metal will always be there


??????????????
??????????????
They can never kill the flame, that burns within my soul, soul, my soul.


VERSE:
He went to a concert with his favorite band
He tried to tell his familiy but they don't understand
Whats up with those devils, and naked ladies too
Don't stay out for ever, It's not what good boys do
You have to go to school you need to make us proud
and close your door my son that music is too loud

BRIDGE:
If you break my fingers one by one
still my love for metal can never be undone.

??????????????
??????????????
They can never kill the flame, that burns within my soul.


They can never kill the flame, that burns within my soul.





I'll give it some days, and then if I don't get some better words, I'll go with this version.

i would be a part of this

I like it mate! This could be a great GMC hit!!!

Do you have the melodies in mind?




Great! Let's start working on something at your Army's Thread!

Hey Gabe i hope that this album is still at work becuase now i am working on a song for my band that i think will suit perfect for your this album. I have recorded Intro, Verse, bridge and Chourus

Tell me what you think

Amazing Superize!! I like how this song is evolving. Keep working on it and please send me more demos.

and regarding the album... yes, this is still in progress! I'll be setting deadlines soon.

Count me in too now, that I've progressed and am a better guitarist when I joined. I can sing if you want

Ok! Do you have any sample of you singing??

Nah, I haven't ever received any training or something. But I'll try my best.

I have an idea. I'll do a guitar and vocals cover of Symphony of Destruction.

That would be amazing!

Ok Gabe now i am finnished with the writing for my song.

Tell me what you think

Hi mate! This sounds so powerful! I really like this song! Congrats for your work! It remind me to some Maiden stuff but with a more modern arrangement. The only comment that I have is regarding the mix... I think that the guitars are a bit loud and drums are a bit low in the mix.

Are you still thinking on making this one with lyrics? because maybe with some guitar melodies you could make a great instrumental song. Check out Transilvania by Maiden to hear some ideas...

Great job man!!
