Many thanks to Diemen for editing the original post to add that link. Should be all good now. For soundcloud users, here's the link to that:

GAF shout out!

8.6

Clearly "Love You Like Murder" is the standout track here. The National meets Patrick Bateman.

And of course "A Murder A Day" should be Scumbo's theme song.

 

[LemonMelon]

Awesome, 8.6 is BNM territory. Thanks for listening. I'm planning to send a copy to whatever P4k writer gave Perfect Pussy a great score; if there's any justice, we can top them.

The two songs Ben contributed lyrics to had murder in the title. His talent is both crazy and insane.

GAF earned that shoutout. He's been one of our most ardent supporters from the very beginning. I hope he hears this soon.

 

[phanan]

This is fucking great.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Oh, I'll be listening soon.

 

[iron yuppie]

Nicholson Went Down to Mexico strikes chords reminiscent of Nick Cave circa Henry's Dream.

 

[iron yuppie]

Am I off in saying that Ben sounds a bit like Meg White on vocals?

Hahaha

He did essentially quit the band because of shyness.

Giving this thread one bump before it can fade into B&C obscurity. Disappointed that BoMac pulled an iron horse and hasn't commented despite starting this.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

typical BoMac... How are sales? Have you reached Tin yet?

That's a pretty serious charge.

Our success is measured in smiles.

I think we may have picked the wrong song to cover. Forgot about this platinum vocal performance:

Jack Nicholson "Go To The Mirror" (Tommy 1975) - YouTube

The only time the high C isn't being beaten senselessly is during the instrumental parts.

 

[Danny Boy]

I'm just waiting for the tour announcement.

 

[LemonMelon]

Assuming we do any shows, we're implementing Pearl Jam's make-every-show-available-through-our-website model.

Doesn't matter much though if our own fans aren't listening to the record BoMac

 

[BoMac]

I haven't had the time to listen to much new music these days. A record such as this needs my undivided attention. I promise to listen this weekend.

 

[LemonMelon]

Just be honest, you're hungover as fuck after double OT and can't handle loud music right now. I understand. Looking forward to your review.

 

[BoMac]

A murder a day, keeps the doctor away.

Why, why, why, WHY?

He's already dead. I already killed him.

Classic stuff.

 

[LemonMelon]

Basically everything makes me insane
It's easy to find an excuse for murder every day



What's your favorite track, BoMac? It sounds like Love You Like Murder is an early favorite.

 

[BoMac]

I've listened to half so far, and Drive, I Say is an early favourite.

It's a fun record. I actually really like the bass on here so far.

 

[LemonMelon]

The first half is pure speed, most of the punk rock songs are there. The second half opens things up and shows off our versatility.

Most of my favorite songs on the album all have Ben on vocals or somebody else had a hand in writing them (like NSW on Always Stabs Twice). Not because I think I suck at everything but because the collaborative aspect of the project was so much fun.
