So, let me guess - the band name has spaces in it so Facebook doesn't shut you down like a North Korean virus. That about right?

Did my help with amp settings contribute to this tour de force in any significant way?

It may be weird but this was definitely the objective. A lot of people don't like it but some people do. A lot of college people I know love it. A few select kids at my school love it and a lot of people on the internet do, but it is a tad surprising that only two people on here like it I guess you guys are more interested in blues and such.

You're right, it's noise, but it's awful music.

If you can call it music.

Follow this link, then select the song "Highcheck". Those Fatuous Sunbeams on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads

There is a difference between music and noise - music has rhythm and adheres to established intervals. Listen to that cut closely - you might get some good ideas.

It produces images in my mind of pre-teen zombie girls waltzing around a cemetery. Noise doesn't foster mental images, it just fosters a strong desire to hit "Mute".

Your mainly interested in being a douche when you don't listen to or have knowledge of similar music style or even know the definition of music.
Music: The art of arranging sounds in time so as to produce a continuous, unified, and evocative composition, as through melody, harmony, rhythm, and timbre.
:laugh2:

I heard some melody in the background... how much of it was ripped off? :hmm: I didn't hear any harmony at all with the "vocals". Don't get me wrong, I'm glad you're working on something but it seems to me that you tried with part of the music and then just gave up when it came to other parts, like the lyrics and vocals. The lyrics are nonsense and straining to be as offensive as possible, with what would appear to be no thought behind them and the singing shows a complete lack of vocal control.

To me, it comes off not as avant-garde... it comes off as if you were thinking "Okay, I'll take the guitar playing seriously... but I can't sing so I won't even bother trying and I'm too lazy to write lyrics so I'll just make stuff up".

That said, I do appreciate that you're taking the time to do something... I just hope you work on a few things and try to reach a point where you're putting more effort and thoughtfulness into what you're doing.
