in this song: my voice, a guitar, a coffee can, two knives, a trash bucket, and two halves of an envelope.

The quality isn't really entirely flawless, but i really just threw this together in a couple hours of spare time i had. I've been coming to newgrounds for quite a while, so i figured it was about time i actually got an account and submitted something, to see if you guys were going to take to my slightly skewed stylings, or if i should just disappear into another realm of cyberspace. :-) if you like what you hear, though, i have more of this softer accoustic stuff at myspace.com/zacharylouis, or if you are more into faster, louder rock, you can try my band site at myspace.com/backfeedrock.

I first read that semi-biography type deal, and it looks like you've been through a lot.
So I decided to check out some of your music, when I heard my brain just about exploded. For some reason it was a big surprise. This is phenomenal.
Keep it up bud.

"Coffee Can Surprise ~ZLH~"

date: April 26, 2008

Cool song! It reminds me of Franz Ferdinand, although I'm not sure why.....
anyway, After hearing alot, and I mean ALOT of bad music on the audio portal, its nice to find an actual GOOD song here. I can't think of any problems with it. the percussion was imaginative, and the lyrics were sung clearly and were creative.
by the way, are you using an acoustic guitar or an electric.
and did you do this by yourself, or with your band?

"Truly Amazing"

Give yourself a small cigar, man.

This is a fine piece of bluesy alt-country. There is evidence of a wide-ranging musical taste and incredible talent.

If you don't mind, I shall compile these recordings and send them off to the British publication Q, for the purpose of a professional review. I feel confident that they will be in raptures about your songs. After all, I was...

"beautiful"

date: April 10, 2008

the percussion is cool, i opened and closed scissors to this and thought it was cool too... i might even remix this with scissors xD

the lyrics were amazing, vocals were superb, guitar was nothing too fancy but it was perfect. the chorus reminds me of modest mouse.

love this.

Author's Response:

as always, thanks for reviewing
