SO it looks like I'm going to be running late getting this one in. Reaper started crashing and giving me all sorts of grief last night, right as I was trying to master the tracks. I finally got it figured out this morning, but I couldn't get it all completed before I had to leave for work. So Dan, don't expect it until later tonight.
I was super excited with how this album was turning out BEFORE I did the vocals. DURRING the lyric writing and vocal recording, I got considerably less happy with the project. AFTER all is said and done, though, I am definitely pleased with this record.
Since I knew my voice would not sound good singing these songs, I decided to make them sound intentionally bad. I wrote the lyrics hastily, sang the parts quickly and out of tune, and then I ran them through a guitar amp simulater. Its not how I would have preferred to do it, but given my limitations as a singer, it was the best route to take. Plus, it made the whole vocal process go by quicker, which is always a plus when it comes to Record Time.
hahaha, that pictures perfectly describes how I was feeling two days ago. love it.
