I'm beginning to realize just how much material I wrote for KABOOM! that never saw the light of day...
Unreleased Track - "Death of the Party"
This is a track from March of 2010, before I had done too many other writing trips. This song is in the same vein of "Save Me From The Dance Floor" - a somewhat snarky take on being socially awkward and well... snarky about it. I was clearly already feeling out of my depth in a music industry full of savvy people that seemed to always know what to do and say and starting to get pretty insecure about the whole shebang.
It never really made the cut, but there are a couple of lines in here I really like, specifically the prechorus - "we're fighting fire with ire"
Semi-Released Tracks - Project Atma Bonus Tracks
We've already released a a few items from the Kickstarter here (the Livestream Acoustic Show last week, our 2012 Metro Show, and I Fight Dragons & Friends), and to round it out here are the three individual tracks that were released during that crazy 30-day stretch.
- "Burnadette" - Demo: This was the first appearance of the song Burnadette, which I thought for sure would make The Near Future. It didn't, but this was my original demo version of the song which I still have fond feelings for (even though the full studio version is way better)
- "cRaZie$" - Acoustic: A wistful take on the song, in the vein of other mellow acoustic cover versions of ours
- "The Geeks Will Inherit The Earth" - Gameboy Cover: This is a pretty straightforward Gameboy cover, which was something we used to do somewhat regularly, partially because it always helped me flex my LSDJ muscles and try new techniques. That said, the funny thing about this track is that I wrote it while having food poisoning in Hong Kong. I was traveling there for work during the Kickstarter and needed one more track that I could make without having access to anything but the gameboy I had brought with me. So voila!
