Streaming Free This Week: Stages and Stereos “Anchorless” EP

I’ve carried on here previously about the Stages and Stereos EP that I recently mastered…you may recall.  Well, check this.  The guys are streaming it for free this week at their purevolume.com page.  You can dig on it right HERE.  A little rock for your ear holes.  These are the guys I blathered on about in this BLOG POST about being grabbed by the lyrics.  Seriously.  Dude had his leg blown off by and IED and only survived because he happened to be running.  His story is better than….almost anyone’s.  And it’s in their song “Pressure Under Fire” – you really should check it out.

Also, check out their facetube HERE, their Tweetmachine HERE and the dude behind the sounds, my long time buddy Lee Dyess at Earthsound Recording – my man knows some underground.

What's Going On...

Grabbed By Lyrics? Me? Whoa. Stages and Stereos

Anyone who’s spent much time talking to me knows that I’m not exactly a “Lyric Guy” – meaning, I listen more to the sound of the vocals, but not always exactly what they’re saying with the vocal.  I’m more interested in making the vocal sound engaging to the listener.  The lyrics are for *them*, not me.

 

Not always.

I just did a single for Stages and Stereos.  It’s gripping.  It’s about a guy who is in the military, in the middle of the action, and it’s one of the guys in the band.  It’s different when it’s real.  The bass player was in Afghanistan.  He was running and stepped on an IED.  It wasn’t pretty.  He didn’t come away unscathed.  He’s alive and sharing.  That’s bold and I think it’s great.  Be on the lookout for this one.

Oh, it also ROCKS

Engineered and produced by my old buddy Lee Dyess at Earthsound Recording – bringing me screaming rock with killer kick drums and really loud snares since 2004…or something.  It’s been a long time.
