    Rich that's very dark reminds me of coil or certain cabaret volitaire tracks if you listened to the full album I wouldn't be suprised if you searched eBay for razor blades

    I guess music doesn't disturb me in that way. People being shot through the head disturbs me emotionally, music does not so whether uplifting or sad and melancholy, music moves me emotionally. I think there may be a big difference.

    Hm. Named after a 1922 horror film. Interesting listen definitely it paints an interesting vibe.

    Best of three takes. Still not great but I can't be arsed to do it again.

    Listen at your own risk! Recorded on an old Rowland Edirol R-09-HR, resting on my chest! 44.1KHz 16 bit. The actual SQ is good, but the singing and guitar playing... er...

    Smile as you will please. Nice cheerful Xmas ditty no doubt.
    Now I am not really recommending anyone listens to this as it is a bit of a one take live mess, but I played it on the Apogees the other night for the first time.

    Two things struck me:

    1) I couldn't believe the amount of power registering on the Accuphase power meters for any given volume level. Far more than I would expect from a commercial recording. Is this just because there's no compression used, I wonder? There's certainly no obvious clipping through out as per loudness wars tracks.

    2) The SQ isn't as good as I thought it was. Sounds fine on the 2nd system and my Ultimate Ears Bluetooth speaker, but the vocal is distorted more than I thought, even beyond my attempts to make my voice sound shaky and therefore disturbed (didn't work that well and actually Curtis doesn't do it - he sings it quite clearly). Odd as the auto recording level of the recording device should have stopped it, but it hasn't.

    Doubtless hours spent in the studio with Martin Hannett with his wall of sound of Tannoys and spooky sound effects, and it would have been better. Dream on...

    For me, after a serious in the right mood listen to it, this is the best post on the thread. No lyrics, but there is a lot of conviction here to a cause. Painting aural vibes like this takes a lot of skill and a hell of a lot of effort for probably not much in the way of mass appreciation. I rank it top stuff with obvious niche caveats.

    Thanks.
