I think anyone who ever reads Orwell's 1984 gets that feeling of "Man, we are suckers!"

This song is about living in the "real" world and not concentrating on hiding within the self as so many people do and have done, me included. Its a balancing act really surviving in their world while crafting our own.

Thanks to Mick as per usual for the engineering job.Shane on Bass and Vocals, Dekki on drums.
The song went through so many arrangements that its hard to recall the original layout but this recording is the best recording of the song so here it is for your ears! I hope you enjoy.

Anthemic
Starts off anthemic... then I got hints of Dire Straights.
Its a good concept and delivery.

I found the snare distracting. Its not balanced with the toms, and it sounds... hollow
- I don't know. Too much reverb and not enough whack! The snare sound is like an echo of an intensity that might have been... kind of the way a people oppressed might have been something else. (ha)
Anyway. I think this is well done and well mixed.

:) great!
You're a pro! I like the guitar. You should improve the sound though.. Sound quality is too low for such a great song.

I love the message, and the song is really nice.

The drumming is excellent, but you need a beefier snare. It sounds like you were using a tightened piccolo snare with weak sticks.

It would also help if you had more than one voice, and if you didn't accentuate your words so much.

singer
The singer is the weak link of this song.
If the singer sang a bit more strong and in key the song would be a hit.
