Lawrence,
Yikes! Holy Cow! This is a tremendous piece of work!!! I love everything you do, but this is my absolute favorite. The groove, lyric, vocal and mix are just perfect.
Completely outstanding...

Thank you very much Bob. I took an idea that you have used with hip hop beats. I thought that was very creative of you.
I'm so glad you liked it!

I love the menacing mood of this Lawrence. I always think tremolo guitar can make a track sound really cool; puts me in mind of that Robert Plant + Alkison Krauss album 'Raising Sand'. Nicely sung too.

Exactly what I had in mind! This is a great tune, Lawrence. Really compelling write, and the chorus helps keep the song from being too forebodindg. Awesome job, and very well sung!

Hi Lawrence.
Hey, that song really moves along - I'm surprised you didn't call it "Walking Through A Gruve-yard".
Kind of spooky, but at the same time infectious - once it gets under your skin you have to play it again and again...
Loved the vocal.
Excellent.
ROG.

Hi Lawrence.
Like the controlled chaos that builds with the song,
the guitars, and particularly the organ.
And of course I love graveyard songs. Mean stuff. Cheers.
