criminal

A recent recording of a slow and maybe a little creepy song I wrote a couple of years ago. I'm responsible for all vocals and instruments minus the bass, which was recorded by my Scottish buddy Riadsala.

Awesome song, edlundart. The rhythm section sounds like something along the lines of what Elysium Fields would do, and I love the vocals. Really good stuff. Props to you and your Scottish buddy.

some of the instrumental passages in the middle put me in mind of "before and after science"-era brian eno... really well done.

This track is really growing on me. Can't wait to here more, edlundart.

Thanks again for all the praise. I posted another song, but it got kind of buried. If anyone reading this is interested in hearing another song of mine, you can try this. More songs to come.

I missed this song first time around, but it finally popped up where I could see it. Criminal, man. Criminal.

Great song. The backup vocals really make it something special. Haunting.
