Rock! I really like this, drezdn. And the beginning made me realize what a sucker I am for stick clicks.

Thanks cortex, it's like praise from Caeser himself.

Are you kidding? He IS Caeser. Seriously, I love it when people make pretty simple music-that rocks! That means YOU. Yea, this rocks alright.

Hell yes. Nice one, drezdn. Really nice and simple and very well recorded. Did you guys record this at home?

I'm embarrassed to say I'm not sure if that's a saw-tooth wave synth or just a very carefully diliberately played fuzzed out guitar playing the repetitive line. The attack is weird and throwing me.

Whichever it is, I think it's a little too hot.

Otherwise, this is a solid rocker. Nice work.

Micayetoca, we actually recorded it at a tiny studio with the bassist from Jungle Rot engineering.

Ynoxas, I'm guessing the part you're referring to is the cheap keyboard ran through a basic distortion pedal, playing a repetitive part.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.
