i read this title and i hear "minor threat" for some reason.

Oooh, that's a good title. But when oh when will I find the time to record it?

2dogs · Post by **2dogs** » Wed Jul 01, 2009 8:48 pm

Oh I like this one. Brings back memories. The choppers whopping in the background, troops with their feet hanging off the landing rails, racing towards the drop zone.
"You. Yes you, you you... little criminal. Your ass is grass, and I'm the twelve bladed lawnmower"

Well that's my twisted version anyway.

Acquitted. Ha!!! We'll see.

I find myself singing the title to a tune similar to Dylan's "Nothing Was Delivered".

But I probably won't do this because (a) few people can/should imitate Dylan; see the fact that most famous covers don't really try to sound like him (b) I doubt I have time to be in this fight at all.

This title entertains me.

Resist the urge to rhyme acquitted with committed, y'all. Just say No.

Everyone knows you're supposed to rhyme "acquit" with "fit" anyhow.

It's remotely possible I might be in, as I now have lyrics and have posted them. As insurance against the likely event that I won't make it, burglars are welcome.

HeadShot · Post by **HeadShot** » Sat Jul 04, 2009 7:44 pm

I'm out for this one. I tried coming up with a way I could make that title nerdcore, and came up blank. I also considered making a hardcore song in the vein of Minor Threat/Circle Jerks, but I'm too lazy to record guitar and bass.

Edit: Nevermind, I decided to go for it, and I came up with a song that kind of sounds like an electronic Bad Religion, lol. Will be submitting that one as "Water Bill"

Totally production-free entry submitted.

The Weakest Suit · Post by **The Weakest Suit** » Mon Jul 06, 2009 5:52 pm

i've got a very simple, very short, and hopefully, very punk song.
now, to find time to record that and write and record three other songs this week...

I'm bored of bickering in a thread about a slideshow I haven't seen and a song I haven't listened to. Wanted to drop by and show the pre-fight some love.
Things are coming together slowly, so whether I have anything to submit tomorrow or not will likely come down to how much I want to sleep tonight.

IN with a somewhat southern/countrified ditty. Thank you Tom Petty, Ani Difranco and Caravan Ray for the inspiration.

In, with lyrics, slightly dodgy though they may be, but I ran out of time & patience, mainly paitence... this is also the simplest and yet most complex song i've recorded

roymond · Post by **roymond** » Sat Jul 11, 2009 9:46 am

I had hoped to have something in this fight, but it didn't quite come together as planned. Here's what I did get done, if it interests anyone. But it's not in the fight.

ujnhunter · Post by **ujnhunter** » Sat Jul 11, 2009 10:06 am

In. In.

Eric Y. · Post by **Eric Y.** » Sat Jul 11, 2009 10:07 am

Totally, totally right down to the wire (actually my email program says I was four minutes late) but I'm in. I hope.

Ripping Hammer · Post by **Ripping Hammer** » Sat Jul 11, 2009 10:09 am

Brand new here, and I definitely have a dog in this fight. It's a thoroughbred, too. Slap its robust flanks.

Teplin · Post by **Teplin** » Sat Jul 11, 2009 12:07 pm

Howl Down the Chimney is grateful to have some very talented guest members this week.

reve · Post by **reve** » Sat Jul 11, 2009 12:12 pm
