Popping the blowstand

Just another overly long drum machine heavy metal guitar demo from 7 or 8 years ago.

The last of the songs I recorded using a Smokey amp pointed at my laptop. The low fi days before I discovered Line6 products. Poor drum sequencing courtesy of Acoustica Beatcraft. This song was little more then a collection of riffs with no direction or point, that for some reason I saw fit to play over and over until nearly 9 minutes of your life have been wasted. I have countless hours of songs like this at varying stages of unfinished, just ideas I throw down on tape so that I can maybe take riffs from them later..

(Get Flash to see the track player.)

Weirdly, I can imagine a Celtic pipe band playing this.

You shouldn't stress out about this. Opeth made a career out of doing the same thing.
Would love to hear stuff you've put together since you got the Line 6 gear.
