Last night (Monday, March 5, 2012), we were finally able to really lay the groundwork for the 5th song for our EP. The song still needs a lot of work. Progression mastery, cleaner transitions, and of course, song completion. The song is around 85%-90% complete, it just needs hooks to really get you into the song.
The song started out as an intro riff from Philip. Revo, Lester, Ian and Philip tried to complete the song (JC wasn't able to attend due to some shit). Revo added the chorus riff and Ian and Philip worked on the verses. LEster wasn't able to make his drumlines yet because the studio was occupied and it was late in the evening at that time. After that session, we had an Intro, a Verse and a Chorus. We also had an idea of the progression of the song but everytime we tried to play it without a drummer, shit just hits the fan! the tempo and rhythm changes are somewhat difficult without a drummer laying out the beat.
Back to last night.
After around a month of not being able to practice as a whole band, Iron Rabbit once again entered the Hole (Department of Rock & Roll Studio) and proceeded to create Music. After warming up by playing Freddy's Back, we tackled the 5th song we dubbed, "Pasakit ni Philip" (Philip's Torture of us). What we thought was a difficult song turned out as a piece of cake once Lester was able to lay down the beat. And boy! does the song ROCK! It's still not perfect but you can already feel the monster straining against the shackles just dying to get to you.
A fast aggressive intro going into a rhythmic verse then sliding into a very heavy chorus. This is the basic characteristic of this song. It's not really riff laden like our other songs (well maybe it still has a lot of riffs but not like the fast riffs of our other songs) but it still screams IRON RABBIT ROCKS!!!
This song is gonne be Legen....
Wait for it.
DARY!!!
