So Long Ago is a song about history, which is probably pretty obvious from the title. The song is a mixture of genres: jazz/blues/industrial and finally some metal.
This is the second track from "In View In The Shade" our second album.

Something I've noticed on your tracks is that they have an almost "live" sound, which gives them a very "authentic" feel. This track is no exception.
I like the different sections on here. The blues stuff is especially enjoyable. It was almost reminiscent of the first Tull album. Great rhythm section and nice jobs with the vox and guitars too.
Good work

Thanks seismic1. The live sound is something I try to capture, my brother and I both like the musicality that playing live can bring to the song. Mind you some sections need to be sequenced for precision.seismic1 wrote:Something I've noticed on your tracks is that they have an almost "live" sound, which gives them a very "authentic" feel.

I've always like the blues and the emotions it brings from a simple 'formula'. However the formula might be easy but getting it right isn't. I am glad you enjoyed those sections.
Thanks for listening.

I like the idea that music can surprise and that listeners can be rewarded by listening so it was great to read your thoughts.

Thanks for your comments polyslax, glad you enjoyed it. This one is not meant to be as edgy as 'on the edge' but more of a smooth jazzy sound although there is the industrial drum kit to give it something extra, and a bit of metal.

Added link to a video I made for this track.
The video is a mixture of stills, archive footage, time lapse and stop motion.
