Wow… This is all a bit crazy folks

Scapes, thank you so much. The feedback on this post has been incredible and to get your endorsement on top of all that means a great deal indeed.

Thanks too to Seron, I’m really glad you like it! The front page looks awesome and the tracks has had 200 hits since yesterday afternoon

Scapes, here are the lyrics that you requested. I never thought to post them so thanks matey, what a cool idea.


---------------------------------------------- A Veteran's Last Stand - Lyrics ----------------------------------------------

Verse 1
Sitting in my cockpit
Smoking on a woodbine
Wondering will it ever end

There's a Reaper in the back streets
A Sniper on the roof tops
And I can’t see a single friend

I could just boost on out of here….
But I don’t know where I’m going to
So I’m just gunna sit here…
and see another day through

Chorus
Me and my mechanic we are the bringers of war
For pain and for hurt is all we’re built for
At the end of the battle, when there’s nothing else left
I feel that life’s real tough when it’s all about death
(Repeat)

Guitar Solo

Verse 2
So lady luck has run away
I may not fight another day
And I can’t take a single shot more

I’ve been raking through my past
Syncing every little task
Never knowing who it is I’m fighting for

Maybe I’ll be saved by the Cavalry
My division by my side
But I guess it’s just them and me and it’s time to ride the final ride

Chorus
Me and my mechanic we are the bringers of war
For pain and for hurt is all we’re built for
At the end of the battle, when there’s nothing else left
I feel that life’s real tough when it’s all about death
(Repeat)

Guitar Solo – SFX Outro

Well done Pastorius!

[KOS_Baconman]

i would prefer if it were fully electronic

[DialUpRanger]

"But I guess it’s just them and me and it’s time to ride the final ride" That statement just hit home a bit.

Thanks for the great song.

[DavisAce1]

Brilliant song. Can't wait to hear the final edit.

Thanks DavisAce1, glad you like it. Actually, now the track is getting more attention I am going to try and master it properly and clean up one or two bits_ The root notes aren't quite right in the bass parts and I think the mix in general has too much low end. I think I'm over compressing certain things too. Anyways I'll let you know when I have something better on the go.

Thanks again

Edit: Scapes, again, thanks for the coverage on the social media pages, I have added the links to the OP

[VIPERHEART]

Great job man !!! This is awesome song !!!

[Houruck]

This style of music is not my not my cup of tea, but you did an amazing work!
It certainly have to be included in the jukebox selection at the BSB Bar uptown.

[ShazaM]

Haha this is great.

[Silverfire]

This should be used in the Hawken feature film. Legit.

[[HWK]shadiradio]

Oh man this is great!

[Pastorius]

Wow, [HWK]shadiradio... Thank you very much. It’s just awesome to get feedback from team [HWK] but to hear from you, their Sound Designer is just amazing. Thanks for listening and I would love to hear any advice you might have. Feel free to drop me a PM if you have the time.

Edit: I've just noticed that [HWK]ZamboniChaos has been listening too. Thank you for all your support guy's. It's overwhelming.

Thanks Silverfire, I tremble at the thought as writing for film is a lifelong dream of mine.

Houruck, Dude, thanks so much for the kind words. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but it’s great that you appreciate the effort that went into this. I would be honoured if it were played on the juke box in the BSB bar uptown. The picture looks awesome mate.

Thanks to ShazaM and Viperheart for your posts. I am really glad you like it and no problem at all Scapes, my pleasure

very nice music i love it could i use it in my game play videos for background_ i would give you guys credits

[ShazaM]

Dude its raw, and the lyrics actually mean something. What the heck more can I ask for_ It's grown on me now that I've listened to it a few times.

Already grabbed it from SC and its on my J3's daily rotation.

If life ever downs upon you, at least you know you can become a full time band and make some monz, ya'll sound good

Wonder full song love hearing it, my only recommendation for improvement is the sound engineering it's not that good. However i beg you make more song and this is a fine show case of what this community can do.

[Vlad0011]

[Dubsteph]

double thumbs up
