Hi Everyone,

Back with Progressive Rock after giving the synths a good go...

Steam Powered Intertia
-----------------------------
I don’t want
I don’t want to hear you
I don’t want to see you
hear you
or see you
No not any more

You suck up
You suck up our essence
You waste so much data
You vacuum
You vampire

You are famous for
Nothing nothing
Empty likes and platitudes
Facade
Echoes
Flashing lights and noise

You are searching for
Glory limelight
What ever it takes for you
Stature
Honour
Throw that all away

Equipment:
Logic Pro
Guitar
SY1000 Guitar Synth

Seems only right and fair to comment on yours since you were good enough to leave feedback for me.
I really liked the video and intro. Unique and interesting, it made me want to hear what was coming next.
Percussion was good.
Liked the brass riffs, e.g. 1:44.
Liked the change of vibe at 2:36.
Was that piano on fire stock footage, or is it yours?
My only reservation is the vocal and its treatment. The vocal space (reverb space), width and thickness could do with a boost.

typical Allomerus quirkiness. i dont want to hear you, but i wanna know whats coming next!
mix was great like the change in sounds throughout the song. and the vid was
entertaining as usual. good work, John!

[justin3am]

Well done! An engaging composition and great performances. The mix is clear and each sound has it's own space.
Thanks for sharing.

I enjoyed the video and the composition. The production is very transparent and really good.
And especially I liked the lyrics, so clear, open and direct

[Frantz]

Good song with a nice clear mix.

Any reason your brother didn't do the drums on this one?

Thanks Bansaw. The vision is all stock except for my hand. I'll have another listen to the vocals. I had is less clear but my lovely wife had trouble understanding the words.

Thanks layzer. Good to hear from the mix champ that the mix is great!
All the best.

No, thanks for listening. The internet is so full of stuff that it's hard to rise above the noise!

Thanks Thomekk! Glad you enjoyed it. I really think it's the noisy/angry ones who are getting the attention. Let's not give them our valuable attention!

Now that's what I call a clean, in your face mix. Your voice is really quirky. I like it. All in all, very well done. Love the sax or whatever that is. Could be a trumpet. Hard to tell. It's obviously synthetic but sounds so cool in context.

[ATS]

Man what a great song and video. I didn't want it to be over. Well done man, very cool.

[guitarmiester]

What a fun time that was to listen to and watch. The mix is very clean.
On a more serious note, it's not every day tinfoil hats make their appearance. Don't let them read your mind.
