Solo Album #15
Big changes in this lil' album o'mine. First off, the tentative new tracklisting.
1. Away Tonight
2. The First Day of the Rest of My Life
3. Happy Pill
4. Nickels and Dimes
5. Without Metaphor
6. Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)
7. And the Chorus Sings
8. Demise of Solace
9. Green Bananas
10. Binary Emotions (He Said/She Said)
11. Heartbreak and Vodka Chasers
That's right, I have titles for everything now. And, if you'll notice, the Beatles cover has become a deftones cover. Simply put, the album just became too fucking dark for a song as cheery as 'Two Of Us'. I've never been happy with the acoustic versions of 'Be Quiet' floating around, either, so I'm going to try my hand at it and see what I can do. "Big Fat Cat Scroatum" became 'And the Chorus Sings', "Hate Me" became 'Heartbreak and Vodka Chasers', 'Binary Emotions' got the subtitle "He Said/She Said", and "new acoustic song" became 'Green Bananas'. The playlist got shuffled a wee bit, as well, and I think that as things stand now, I have a pretty strong album in concept ONLY. Without Metaphor, And the Chorus Sings, Green Bananas, Binary Emotions, and Heartbreak and Vodka Chasers have yet to be written, sadly... but things are rolling, nonetheless, on this whole Progress thing.
Happy Pill will officially be unrecognizable, I'm pleased to report. String quartet, timpani, cymbals... it's all good.
The new Chevelle sounds fucking GOOD, too. Hooray for Vitamin R!
