HEY!

It's Roy here again!

Figured I'd upload another one of my tunes,
in case you nice folks in here ain't tired of hearing me scream yet!

This one is called Shameless , and like the other tune (Drift Away) I'm doing all the singin' and playin' on it.

(I downsized both to 128 kb/s-files to fit them in)

I hope you enjoy it, folks !

ROCK'N'ROLL ! ! ! :rock:

Greetingz,
Roy.

Roy I checked out Shameless and have to tell ya I think your vocal work is amazing. You have a great voice, man. The track sounds great and 128 and must sound killer in a lossless format. Love the griding guitar...the tone is absolutely killer and the whole production rocks. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Man, that Green Lizard thang is so damn cool! How come it's not longer??
I think you should make a full piece of that one, I'd sure love to hear that!

And it made me dig back in my archive too, and pull out a coupla blues-tunes I wrote a few years ago, and inspired me to record'em in the not too distant future!
Thanx!
And keep the good stuff comin'!
Roy.

Very impressive Roy. The vocals are superbly sung and produced. I seriously cannot fault them - they are full of confidence and sound fully professional in every context. The playing is pretty faultless too, the rhythm work is exceptional and I love the leads too. As for the songs, they are fucking great.

W O W ! Thanx, man!!!
What a compliment!
I'm really glad you gave it a listen!

My recipe is as little effects as possible on the voice.
That way it sounds the way it sounds in my head! :twisted:

I'm listening my way through you other folks' stuff in here too, lotsa great music, singing and playing!!
As I'm writing this 'Wish You Well' is playing in the background!
Beautiful tune, man! :icon_thum
Keep Up The Good Work!

Singin'n'playin' is what it's all about! Right?

Greetingz,
Roy.

Pretty amazing work. This is excellent on many levels, just sounds like professional quality studio work. Your guitar and production work would be great on its own, but the quality of your singing really stands out - you just sound like you have an abundance of natural talent. If you're serious and motivated to pursue a career, I think you might have the type of demos that could land you a record contract. I could see where it might help to focus your compositions a little bit, but otherwise this is pretty much flawless work. Get some other songs on here, dude!

 

[3fingers]

Pretty amazing stuff!! Vocals as good as any pro I have heard!! Seems a cross between Sammy Hagar and Klaus Meine!! Great total package with that guitar wizardry thrown in!! :thumb:

 

[Roy Bratbakken]

Hey, thanx for the kind words guys!
Feels unreal to get this much positive feedback!
And I never took any singing- or playing-lessons either!

Sammy Hagar and Klaus Meine, huh? Well, that can’t be all bad!

And Ksdb, I have this thing where, for every tune I put up anywhere on the net, I make sure that I have another one in more or less the same style, but a little better (in my ears), that I keep to myself, just in case!

Thanx Again!
I really appreciate you guys taking the time to give it a listen!

Rock On! :rock:
Roy.

I checked out your other songs at the Download.com site. "The Prisoner" is a great, great track. I was wondering if you've tried layering your vocals or to do any backup vocals during the choruses on your songs. I didn't notice it in these demos, but maybe I missed it. I really think that extra backup vocals might give your songs a little more depth. Also, was wondering how you record your drum tracks - they sound very natural. In fact, feel free to share other recording info: guitars, amps, etc.

Very Intense music! I liked all aspects of both tunes. Especially the chunky rhythm you had going on in Shameless. Reminded me of Fu Manchu. Excellent lead work as well. Great vocals too. You've got the whole thing!

I'm glad I listened to these! Can't wait to hear more.
