My band Wag put out a couple of summer singles last week! We recorded both "Mesa" and "Nile Perch" in our practice space with a pair of SM58s and a Focusrite 2i2. After a little gentle mixing love, the finals sound pretty good to my ears. I'd love to hear what you guys think! I'm one of the guitars/the cleaner tenor voice that sings lead on "Nile Perch".

syntaxfunction posted:Holy poo poo, I lost track of you guys when you must have changed your name from Trash Gendar. I'm actually super excited that you're still around, cause I absolutely loved Mass Canon. Hey thanks man! I remember talking to you in the sketches thread a few years ago. Were you the guy who added the violin track to my ukulele demo thing? Thanks for the encouraging words. The new EP is out 8/18!

syntaxfunction posted:Nice, poo poo is cash. (Do people still say cash? I feel like they do) Thanks for the listen, man! "Brothers" is for sure my favorite of those to perform, but you're right. It's definitely a bit of a departure from the rest of the EP, and I wonder if some of the energy is missing in the recording. As for the length, one day we'll make an LP. It seems hard to justify the cost and effort without a real fan base, though. It's hard enough to convince folks to listen to one song (let alone 4, let alone 12). Thanks for the feedback, though! Glad you're enjoying it, and I'll look up Smith Street Band. I don't think I've ever heard of them.

Thanks for the listen! We like the art also. It really pops on the cassettes. Full album is definitely the next step plan. I'm always kind of weary of full albums for the projects I'm actually investing mixing/mastering/release money into because it's so rare that anybody will actually commit to a full album listen-through. I feel like EP's are a more manageable length to expect your friends and internet strangers to listen to, and significantly cheaper to make. I make full lengths for my solo project, but only because I mix them myself and don't do any physical releases, so I don't feel like I've wasted any money when nobody listens.
