As some of you may know I've been in a band for quite some time now. Within the last few months we had a few people leave (one voluntarily, one not), and now with our new rhythm guitarist we got the kick in the ass we needed to do everything we've wanted to. This guy has just started learning to play, but his natural ability is even more than our lead guitarist (who is a god btw). Anywho, yesterday before I had my night class I called everyone up so that we could work on a song I'd been tinkering with. So after about 2 hours of teaching the guitarists the general layout, and letting them add their own twists to it we were ready to record. I wrote this song my junior year of HS (4 years ago now) and never really finished it. But it did have potential so I figured I could compose for it now and add more verses later. After 3 takes, here's the product of a great afternoon. It's a rough take basically, something decent we can listen to and practice independently with (as you can we weren't expecting this take to turn out so well with the screwing around in the beginning and my lead guitarists cameo 80's scream towards the end...you can't miss it). Anywho, that's enough background info on the piece. I will say that it should be played at the appropriate level, so that means turning the stereo up to 11 (especially since the microphone's batteries begin to die during the second verse). Enjoy!

try again, I can d/l it fine. It was a 75mb wav, compressed down to a 8.5mb ogg (it's like 7 min. long)

Got it! Yes, definitely some potential there. Nice dynamics. I can see that's going to be a pretty good track once you've polished it.
Is that you on vocals?

thanks a bunch.
yea that's me on vocals. We've been having a blast ever since we got our second guitarist, it added the extra depth we needed to make some really neat harmonies. Our biggest goal is to make the songs polyphonic, and this one seems to be a good example of that.

Don't have winamp or foobar, although been foobar a time or two. I don't want too many media programs on the machine, gets confusing. Besides .wmv, have RealPlayer, Quicktime, iTunes. Is winamp worth it?

>>my winamp won't open it?
really? what version are you running? every version 5.x and maybe even the 4.x versions could open oggs...
>>Is winamp worth it?
winamp is the shiza, it's always worth it
but if you don't want more media players cluttering your pc you *should be able to get a plugin for any one of your existing players to play .ogg's. If not, install audacity like rob suggested or even goldwave...they're wav editors and don't count as media programs
