Re: Fair To Midland

demos? not many. There's some live videos of course. For example, it was the encore at this show

Yeah, that's about all I've heard of it.

Amarillo Sleeps on My Pillow is very sick, though. I cannot wait to hear that one fleshed out.

Pour the Coal to 'Er = MIA. But a few comments on the fans forum suggest that track may still be included on one of the versions (or at least a b-side).

Re: Fair To Midland

I hope this is the last delay.

Re: Fair To Midland

Pour the Coal conspicuously missing on the second album in a row = EPIC fail.

Despite my bitching and moaning, it'll still probably be the album of the year, though.

Re: Fair To Midland

Bravo Sierra is missing too. Unless the song title changed?

Cool track.

Re: Fair To Midland

Can someone email it to me? I can't pull that link up on my phone.

Re: Fair To Midland

Absolutely sick track; knew it would be a killer from the first time a live clip surfaced on YT. Still a bit unsure about the extremely ambitious production values (2:39 is just plain unnecessary), but I don't think the worst production in the world could stop me from rocking out to this shit.

Re: Fair To Midland

meh.

The demo songs are a lot better imo.

Re: Fair To Midland

I like the originality of the track, and the instrumentation. The production is wonderful too, crystal clear and it captures a perfect execution of the song, the 'extra' stuff is just fun ear candy imo, nothing extreme about it. Great stuff.

Agreed.

Re: Fair To Midland

I am in love with this song. It was so sick live. I really can't wait for this album. This is the type of anticipation I usually feel for dredg albums.

I have spoken to several people who have heard the entire album and they said this album is the best representation of Andrew's vocals yet. They said that the screams live up to his live screams. If you have ever seen them live, you understand how powerful his screams really are.

As for the "extras," I'm loving all of it. The hammered dulcimer adds a nice touch.

Re: Fair To Midland

Not a fan of all the vocal effects in the new song.

Darroh is an amazing singer...he doesn't need that stuff.

Re: Fair To Midland

Interesting.. this song sounds a lot truer to his real voice than anything off of "Fables."
