Thanks guys, just like to know if what I'm doing is appealing to other people, lol.

I use a microphone I stole from my girlfriend's house, it says "Audio-tech ATR20" on it. I use Cakewalk to record and just added some preset reverb to it. I wish I could sing like that live, but I get too excited, haha.

:wow what a fantastic idea you have there: I bet it doesn't snow as much in Nashville..... hmmmm.

No, but the rain freezes sometimes and makes for a nice clusterfuck! :omg:

*refrains from making obvious "9 inches" joke*


I forgot to mention my drummer's an asshole, and I'm awkward and gay. :omg:

Anyways... between that and the last song you posted... you should do more Pumpkins covers, IMO. :rock:

I'm planning on "in the arms of sleep" next. My goal eventually is to cover "Starla" and make as good as the original, or at least similar to the quality of this Silverfuck cover.

I listened and enjoyed it.
Can't think of anything else to say really. Simple does it, like your recording.

Woah! not what I was expecting. I turned down my computers volume a little, in expectation of the snotty guitar intro. I'm actuallys till istening, but you delivered and recorded it very well, great interpretation. :dance:

Thanks for the cool compliments! :hug:

I don't think I'd ever record a heavy cover of the Pumpkin's heavier songs. It seems to come off insincere, even live. Which is weird because I don't get the same feeling with Nirvana or other band's songs. :idk:

I've done that pre-listening volume lowering before, haha, you never can be too careful.
