Bobby's Blog for College

With Week 4 creeping up on me like mothers day, I am scrambling for ideas of how to spend my time. My rehearsals for the new songs aren't happening as frequently as i'd like and I don't start recording the songs I already have until Thursday. My ideas for research are wearing thin but if theres anything I can do in college it's arrange the songs independently and get everyone in my band up to speed with the structure then record them. I have no time to make this perfect, but getting a good result is certainly not out of the equation. Heaven knows I have plenty of riffs in my phone that can create a song, I just need to figure out how to arrange them properly into songs.  The tide will turn, and before soon I will have something to show for this project I believe that the best course of action for the songwriting is to make it as simple as I can.

My solo is not that good but I will hopefully make it better on the record.  Lyrics Poisonous Soul Poisonous Soul is our title track and definitely the heaviest. It is structured like a typical thrash song and it illustrates what we do best, strong choruses, surprising harmonie...

For when recording guitar away from the studio, I will research the recording of guitars into logic and how to get a good sound from the amps in logic. It also goes through the different pedal boards you can apply like distortion pedals, delay pedals, and harmony pedals which will be useful for my upcoming songs I recon Today is where I begin work on my next song, it never fails to excite me when it comes to songwriting. there will be multiple images coming up showing our writing session including riffs, chords, and all sorts of information about the music theory behind what we have so far This is my set up Here is our bassist Misu and here is our new drummer Bien The writing session was mostly successful and we created a pretty silly song but it worked well. the song itself is two notes E and F and I play a lot of octaves in the riff Our working title is gonna be "Yellow Fog" since it sounds a little bit like purple haze by Hendrix but that name is probably not going to las...
