It’s been a wild couple of weeks!
CD orders have been thru the roof!
Which, don’t get me wrong,
it has been amazing.
But for now we’ve decided to cease
our campaigns for them in order
to get our new album done.
All that said, while I have been
waiting for my colleague from LA to
finish more guitar parts for
Shadow/Light, I’ve been recording
vocals for Beautiful, Terrible (the
album’s title track). I am currently
stuck on deciding what lyric to sing
on the choruses though. Originally
this song was written to have the
lyric “oh oh oh” to be sung during
the chorus however I’ve been
experimenting with other lyrics (if
you can even call them lyrics haha).
I’ve been experimenting with “la la
la” and “na na na”. We posted a poll
on this in the Discord, just generally
asking what is best for a punk rock
song chorus and most people voted
for “na na na”. THAT SAID, I think
that’s just because some of the
most popular rock songs use it.
Blink 182 and My Chemical Romance
specifically come to mind, but I
think there are a couple others. I’d
like to make another follow-up post
in the Discord with a little more
specific context, maybe recording a
video of me singing the different
options so y’all can hear it and
make a better decision. At the
moment I’m leaning towards “da da
da” actually. I asked a couple of
friends and after they heard it, they
felt “da da da” would be best too,
but stay tuned as I hope to get a
follow-up poll for this up in the
Discord soon!
