Breakups? Hard enough on the living, but harder for zombies.

Perhaps you can guess from the title, but this is a breakup song.

Sigh by IngeChiles

When you're in a summer fling and you can't wait for fall...about being too shy/nice for your own good. Rough recording, more verses will be added

Breathing On Another Planet by Saellys

Saellys — Mon, 04 May 2009 18:37:37 -0800

One of the first songs I ever wrote, remade in a multi-million-dollar studio by a band that broke up shortly after it was recorded. The original version is here.

hospital walls by edlundart

Guitar-based melancholy song with vocals. I've had this around for several years, and keep thinking I'll continue to dabble with the outro. I think it's time to just let it out. I wrote this after the breakup of a 7 year relationship. I like the lyrics, and the little solo, and many other things about it. The long fade-out ending is over-indulgent and a bit off-key, but imperfect as the song may be, it has heart.

I Overshot You (Demo) by allaboutgeorge

This one is probably about reiterated obviousnesses and vain hopes regarding poorly plotted relationship trajectories, but what do I know, I just wrote and sung it. Oh, and the guitar tuning was EADGBD, capoed to the fourth fret.

Second Ring by allaboutgeorge

Wherein I discover writing a song about kissing off an ex is easier and more satisfying than kissing off an ex.

Seams (vocoder bringdown edition) by cortex

cortex — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 08:51:44 -0800

A recording from 2004 of a song from 1998. I really like vocoders: I think that they are very awesome. More inside!

Waitin' For You by grubby

grubby — Sun, 19 Nov 2006 11:18:10 -0800

The lyrics are pretty self-explanatory - it's a breakup psychosis song from a while back. I layered my voice and guitar with a four track, but kept things kind of sloppy.

I Don't Want to See You Anymore by 23skidoo

Collaboration with some people over at myvirtualband. A slow stumbly fuzzbass thing.

the long lost light by edlundart

edlundart — Sun, 09 Jul 2006 16:22:58 -0800

A slow and sad song I wrote and recorded after a breakup/separation a few years ago. Features a falsetto chorus and acoustic guitar, including an e-bow undercurrent.

Eponymous 4 - Our Best Wasn't Enough by NemesisVex

NemesisVex — Thu, 06 Jul 2006 22:08:07 -0800

And now for something slightly more urban ... I was channeling ACO's "Yorokobi Saku Hana" when I wrote this one. At the time I wrote the lyrics, a lot of people I knew were going through break-ups. I'm still not a singer. Vocals are rough. Sorry.

The New One by cortex

cortex — Fri, 30 Jun 2006 11:32:16 -0800

This is my former band, Heat Lorraine. I'm lead guitar on this track. We had broken up already when we played this show. There was a lot of resentment floating around. We'd all had a few drinks before we went on, but our lead singer (and rhythm guitarist) Brian was drinking with a vengence.
