New Song Preview (24 Hours Only...)

[Gomo]

Just look it up on youtube.

 

In fact here is a video I took of the song in NY in March 08 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ollBU1qI4RY

Anton hasn't chimed in yet, but if anyone does convert it to mp3, keep it off the boards. Matt would be furious (and justifiably so).

 

agreed. Let's just chill and be respectful of Matt's property. He was nice enough to preview it in the 1st place, we don't have to be dicks.

[Gomo]

Matt made it a point to say this song is not officially the first single...I'm wondering what could be? None of the demos that I heard sounded very commercial friendly aside from maybe Silent Army and Fought to Fight it. I'd put my money on one of them.

[Prometheon]

The break in the middle of Silent Army is way too long. It sort of kills the song's momentum IMO, and thus would make it undesireable as a single.

 

Fought to Fight It or Last Parade would be my bets as singles.

I have some severe demoitis with this song....i really miss the guitar at the end from the demo. ;)

 

I thought this could've been a single going from the demo, but not now.

don't get me wrong, i still like the final product, but there were more guitars in the demo. i wish it made it into the final product. one thing i do like though is the drums in the break. overall it's good and i'm excited to hear it mastered and at full quality.

 

now my curiousity is piked to see how different the studio versions are from the demos. there were some minor changes from this demo (removal of guitars mostly), so we'll see how the others turn out.

 

the oct release date is disappointing. it should be july. i know it wasn't his call and i really respect matt trying to help us out by giving us some previews ahead of time.

When I last messaged mg, I don't think he had picked a demo yet. But yeah, he knew it wasn't going to be Silent Army.

Agreed. I loved how the guitars kicked in at the end of the demo.

 

I do like this version though.

[Guest Bimbly]

Disappointing. Demo was way better.

[Gomo]

Good thing I never listened to the demo.

[HoboFactory]

So wait... this demo version is different from both this past 24-hour preview, and the recordings of the acoustic performance on youtube?

[mrchipps]

I heard this song played in calgary on x929. Wicked song wish I wouldn't have missed it on matthewgood.org

Agreed. I loved how the guitars kicked in at the end of the demo.

 

I do like this version though.

 

after listening to it more, i really miss the end guitar too, it gave a really nice scrappy feeling to the end of the song, good thing i have a copy of the demo so i can swap it out on my ipod.
