At least we have plenty of cover art to choose from.

I've written a song in an hour. I like this song. I may be able to record this song and submit. We'll see.

I have a super experimental microtonal piece going that I plan on making work in this fight but I dunno if I'll songfightify it or not, I guess we'll see how inspiration/time management goes.

Rone Rivendale is in. Very much experimental. I didn't call this a feature despite there being a 2nd vocalist. I went back and forth on this, but the vocals are built-in to FLStudio and so I presume they are no string attached to use. For the record, as I included in my lryics, the wonderful lady is named Laurie Webb
From spoken word to actual singing, I can screw up any style with style. :D

Still not sure if this is going to end up being a songfight submission. I'm off the next couple days. Let's see if inspiration strikes.

Late again. Optional challenge met; the end of the world has always disturbed me. Sometimes the disturbing songs end up being my favorites.

Submitted my instrumental. I like it. I know it's not done but it was at least inspired by the prompt and I just never figured out what to do with the vocals. But hey, it's kind of spooky and so is the end of the world so...

WreckdoM did something this week we almost never do, (I can't recall the last time but it must've been long ago) we submitted a song and then submitted a revised version. Hopefully the revised version is the one that gets posted, but either way 'll likely offer the alternate version in the review thread so you can hear both and decide for yourself which one you like the least. :P All kidding aside we are pretty pleased with our effort and hope you are to!
