Phlebia - I'm not good at genres, does this sound like lo-fi new wave/early 80's punk? Anyway, I've always liked that particular drumbeat and that synth sound. Yes, indeed it does! that whole Goth/Deathrock scene is a natural fit seeing as how I'm mainly good at drums, bass, and synths and that's t...

I believe in you! I hope it wasn't like technical death metal or anything, relearning those may be hard.

Ha. Technical death metal! More like Jangle-pop.

Well, good news is I like that genre way better!

I went in imagining it as a murder ballad,

Ha! I was toying with the idea of -- theme pending -- trying to write one of those next week. I'm always astounded at how many of those have been made over the years.

I'm recording angsty-ass lyrics in my driveway and it started storming. I guess I'm stuck in the car for awhile.

I submitted my votes! I swear I'm going to review this fight eventually, but the afternoon that I decided I was going to write out my reviews, I decided to plant a garden instead. So now I'll have collard greens, radishes, spinach, and onions within a couple months. The benefits of living in the dee...

Phlebia - Something's Wrong Day after day they seem the same, the same stale air, it's such a shame To resonate with the myth of Sisyphus in so damn many ways To make a mountain out a of a hill, a gaping chasm from a hollow Fill your reservoir with Chinese water torture And when I look into your fa...

Seems like there must be something in the water attracting dormant Songfighters to submit again :) Maybe we all just need a creative outlet these days! I'm always surprised with how many accounts here were opened over a decade ago. I guess this place just has some sort of magnetic pull... Anyway, I...

Hi everyone, I used be be much more active as Brown Word and the Big Whine 7 years ago but things slowed down. Semi-regular contributor to WreckoM for about 10 years. Lately I've been ramping things up and I see/hear a lot of new artists so I thought I'd reintroduce myself. Hope to be a more regula...

Here we go. I wrote some reviews. They may be brief and baffling, but hopefully not hurtful. rvwx - Checkered Past Phlebia : I really enjoy the pacing of this, and appreciate the effort you went to to get it to us. I'm really digging the vocal treatment as well (sounds much better than my own in-ca...

For the very first time ever I've written all my lyrics before doing any of the musical bits.

I was gonna do that too this fight...But then I picked up my bass. Oops!

I got a Turkish coffee set and after making way too many batches that were boiled way too hard and cleaning burnt powdery coffee off of my stove, I've finally figured out how to get a damn good cup. Also, my shiitake logs are going nuts so I've been cooking a ton of those. Any good shiitake recipes ...

First listen through and all I can say is that Dust Pipe song is faaarrrr outttt mannnnnn. Reminds me of Bardo Pond, heavily. Reminds me of stuff I'd play when I had a space and psych rock radio show back in 2010.

Well... We used my 100+ year old upright acoustic piano for ours, and I suck at piano, so that was fun. There will be no comparison I'm sure. It's f***ing hard to record a real piano! I've never even tried! Mine's around the same age, inherited indirectly from my uncle's ex-mother-in-law. My piano ...

I dunno, so far my year has started well, but I've been promising myself i'll eat less junk food and continue to maintain my gym routine. I've got some inheritance related legal financial stuff I need to iron out, so I guess finally getting that done. Oh, and I'd like to try and continue my consecut...

I got promoted!!! Yay! Congrats!!! I hope they heard a preview of your new track and you're now Director of Steel Drum Solos. Ha! I don't think I've made more than a passing reference to songfight to any of my co-workers, but I'm sure they could just look at my artist name and figure out it was me ...

I got promoted!!! Yay!

I appreciate all of the reviewers comments. My singing 'style' is a result of trying to stay in time and on pitch as much as possible. I am not trying to emulate anybody, just trying to get out a vocal that does not totally suck - even after pitch correction. I liked it! It had that new wave metron...

Snuck into the bathroom for a bit with the laptop, transferred my vox from my 4 track, mixed it down quickly, and submitted.

Christmas gifts featured: new drumheads and a steel tongue drum solo!

I know it's late already but I just pulled a gizo and recorded my vocals on the side of the road. I won't let holiday company prevent me from getting this in!!!

I wrote one that was WAY to personal to ever share. The kind that you write, and then put away and never ever play again b/c it tears your insides out, and then your insides lay there on the floor writhing and pulsing, but then you can examine them, and put them back in correctly. I don't know if I...

Phlebia We played checkers in the past So many years since I saw you last We'd make the rules and Go anywhere we pleased We played checkers in the past ‘95 or 6 or 7 What’s the use of keeping track When there’s no contact for so long She’s got a checkered past 11 years since I saw her last 40 and 77...
