Hey, kids. Smalltown here. Long-time listener, first time caller. Mostly these are speed reviews. And goddammit I’m going to try to be honest. THIS IS A LOT OF SONGS, and a lot of good ones at that. ADD — so, you should know I’ve always been a big fan of your “Systematic Panic.” This is really good....

Well, shucks. Douche Puppy is me and Rob (Hip Cola) plus our friend Dane (who's in Ill Cricket Crew over the years). This was a fun song to make, but yea — completely stuck in the 90s and not something I'd really ever sit down to groove to. We were completely on board with all the "genre bias/not my...

Nah fuck these guys. They've never contributed a thing to the community - they just cropdust us their mediocre whiteguycore bullshit and push their facebook followers to spam votes. These guys are missing the point of songfight entirely.

Fantastic — well put.

Hey all, I don't really know what to say. If I'm this stressed about it in Canada, I can't imagine how you're feeling south of the border. Man, I hope this goes the right way — for everyone's sake. Stay safe.

And here was my live fight video entry:

This was also great. Nice stuff. I like the out of breath stuff.

Erin and I made a video for our song "Elevator Men", for Song Fight! Live. This is one of our favorites of all the songs we've ever made. It's also the first video we/I have ever made!

And a really lovely song it is. Nice work.

Two listens doesn't seem to be enough to figure out the story, but it's about having an Australian friend? (Really? No didgeridoo sample after that delivery?) It was recorded at our annual weekend away, written about the one guy who couldn't make it this year. Yes, he's Australian. And Dane was dyi...

Hey, kids: Ill Cricket Crew got together for our annual guys’ weekend and recorded our Better Luck Next Year (our first SF entry as a group in 12 years!) on a beautiful deck overlooking Georgian Bay. I can’t imagine the other cottagers enjoyed it as much as we did. Dig that beautiful Canadian landsc...

Trumpression is an excellent term and the whole thing sounds great. Nice work.

I rarely post in the prefight, but this is important.

Me and my 8-year-old buddy Matthew are in — Blonde and Bald — with a solid track about a dog named Trouble. Don't worry, Matthew is on vocals so the singing is actually good.

Great to read these stories. Here's mine. In 2005, I googled “Boon Liver” to see if an old band of mine had ever been posted online and found the Song Fight boards because Leaf (who’d been in the band with me) was quoting BL lyrics in one of his VERY LONG and rambling posts. I started posting songs ...

We treasure him up here, too. This is fantastic.

I believe Smalltown hires "Kyle" from Logic and works with him for long hours 'till gets it just right.

What a jack-ass. But correct.

Gaping Maw says this or something like it: We’ve got to take it outside We’re shut tight in our own minds Can we colour outside the lines? can we take it outside? We can’t change if we hide We can’t just let it ride We may be too tired to fight But we have to take it outside Just a minute now — wick...

It's important — SongFight wins look great on a resume.

Here you go, kids. Gaping Maw's Expert Opinion: Remember the day we let the world collapse? Let our reason lapse and we all took a step back? Jackass packaged fake “facts” like stacks of flap jacks, created rats of anti-vaxx. Yea, we should all inject disinfectant, well what did we expect? evidence...

More speed reviews broken into WHAT I LIKE, WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE, and WHAT YOU SHOULD MAYBE DO. Do it, don’t, whatever. Seaweed Delete I LIKED the vocal delivery, the craziness of the lyrics the chaos, the length and the abruptness of the ending. I DIDN’T LIKE ... hmmm ... the hammering synth. MAYBE Y...

Hot Pink Halo, I'd like to introduce you to Leaf and Songfight 2005.

Fussy Britches, yo: Bent Straight I’m bent out of shape Trying to find the time to get straight A bit of a mess Bottled up, throttled with stress But you bent me straight You took a chance, the chances you take Getting tired but it’s not too late To bend me straight So get inside my head and rearran...

Rob thinks this Urban Dictionary definition is funny. Fussy Britches Someone who is trying to hurry or speed something up. Mike: When are we going to go? We're gonna be late. If we're late, i'll cry....i swear...LET'S GO!!! Christian: Easy fussy britches...they're open 24 hours. You'll get your happ...

I sometimes get comments indicating my drum levels are just a bit too low. I purposefully raised these a hair It wasn't necessarily the volume, but how hard the drums are hit. You won't be able to edit live drums, of course, but if they're .... you know, not an acoustic kit, you might try just lowe...
