So...uh...yeah. By now, everyone should have an idea of how it is that I work. This was straight-forward. 6 vocal tracks, three guitar tracks (1 nylon, 2 steel with body percs), one afternoon, 4 beers.

This is for the NG Halloween contest, so give a Ceevro some love!

Well, it certainly seems more fitting for Valentine's Day than Halloween. ;) It's catchy, humorous, well-structured, and smooth-flowing. I enjoyed the vocal harmonies a lot, as that gives the piece a pretty nice, full texture. I suppose at some point I would like to see you take some more stylistic risks (you do the bare-bones guitar, vocals, and body percs thing a lot). The piece was also a little long, especially compared to most of your other work. Still, you did a good job of telling a story with the lyrics. Keep it up, Ceevro. ;)

Ceevro responds:

Well, this was a cover, so they lyrics were already set for me. I know I've got a certain style to my methods of composing, but it you look back at my REALLY old stuff, you'll find out that recording with real instruments and my own voice actually IS the risk! I'm trying very hard to perfect a certain more real style. What I ultimately want is a method of doing these types of pieces live, at this quality. I'm getting better at it, though I still have a long way to go before I can call this method mastered!

Personally, I am not at all satisfied with this cover. It felt rushed, and not crisp enough for me. I also really hate the sound of my own voice...
