To enter, you have to jam out some blues.

So I did.

Problem is, I didn’t want to go to the trouble of using an amp or anything, so I plugged the Tele’o'doom direct and used some free plugins for the sound.

Problem is, I couldn’t decide between the fake Marshall, fake vintage fuzz or fake Boogie tones. So I just gave up and layered them all in together.

I also used some new free delay and reverb plugins I found to round out the sound.

So even when I don’t win, it was still good as a tonal experiment. Plus, both of my fans get to here a new tune.

Do-do-do Daaa-Daaa Do-do-do

This is that, but played in my usual metal style.

I recorded this at the end of 2008 for my own personal use, but I thought someone out there might want it. It’s a full “band”: drums, bass, rhythm and lead guitars, and it really cuts through any background noise.

I’ve never not heard this when my phone isn’t on silent.

It was also the basic meaning of the suite I’ve been writing over the past few months.

After 137 straight weeks of new songs, which have amassed almost 11000 total downloads I need to stop the constant punishing pace of creativity.

It has been great to have the deadline to force the creativity out of me, before this I had only written a small handful of songs, and now I have hundreds. It has also been great for me, both as a musician and as a person, my skills have grown and many of the darker elements of my soul have been able to be poured out through my music.

Since those two areas of growth were the reason I started this insanity in the first place, and with the time I spent on it needing to be reallocated to my studies, it is time to stop the weekly song schedule.

Not that ChaotiMusic.com is completely finished. I will return, but only when a song is ready.

So for now I must say τετελεσται.

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
Breathe it in
As you step
From within
Pretend that it is fresh
In the air
You will let
The despair
Soak right into your flesh

Chorus:
The cloying stench of false freedom

Verse 2:
Round and round
You can’t stop
The unsound
Corruption of all you know
You’ve heard this
All before
You won’t miss
Once I finish the show

Bridge:
This bridge is written
To end this chapter
A purge of the darkness
That lived within
Not that its over
Or that I’m pure
But now I must say
It is finished

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
I feel my hopes soaring
With each step I take
I feel my hopes soaring
From this dream awake
Think as I approach
What will I there find?
Think as I approach
Leave it all behind

Chorus:
Feeding back to scorched earth

Verse 2:
The end’s getting closer
But is it what it seems?
The end’s getting closer
Fraying at the seams
Can’t escape the madness
Even in the light
Can’t escape the madness
Now its just real bright

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
I trek along on this dark journey
And I wonder when this all might end
The road is long and I’m getting nowhere
How much more can this path extend

Chorus:
And then I see something up ahead
The first rays of tunnel’s end

Verse 2:
The crushing depths where this road began
Are well matched by where I’ve travelled through
I’ve groped along like a lost blind man
As the pain upon me does accrue

Bridge:
Walk towards, the bright light
Walk onwards, taste delight
Walk towards, the bright light
Walk onwards, do not fight

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
See the blight spread
As the journey goes
What is ahead
Is there far to go

Verse 2:
The pollution
Gained on this dark road
The dilution
Makes my mind corrode

Chorus:
Cumulative corruption
Accumulated scourge
Need the end to purge

Verse 3:
I’m defiled
With each step I take
Rot compiled
Is this a mistake

Verse 4:
This affliction
Destroys all I am
From addiction
Can I end this sham

The title should give away the theme, and then some.

Especially if you speak ancient greek and can therefore understand the title of the suite.

This part is the obligatory instrumental introduction.

Starts with a soft bit, blippy synths, jazzy drums, soft pads and some noodley clean guitar solos.

Gets heavy in the second half.

I’ll explain it all when I get to the end of the set of songs.

As much as I can anyway.

I even made a video for it:

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
What is #boobiewed?
Why are tits in my twitter list?
I guess the wed means Wednesday
And funbags are really fun

Chorus:
It is Boobie Wednesday
So reach in and have a feel
Yes its Boobie Wednesday
Lets stop cancer cos tits are cool

Verse 2:
So on Boobie Wednesday
Make sure to check for lumps
And remind all your friends
Because cancer really sucks

Verse 3:
Boobs aren’t the only cancer
You can get it anywhere
So keep checking with your doctor
To find it and treat it well
