There sure has been a lot of pretty stuff on here lately.

I thought I would throw a hand grenade onto the field.

Ready for the Flood

By David Snyder

V1

Well I’m ready
For getting rough
And I’m ready
To tear it up
And I’m ready
To show my stuff
Cause I’ve already
Had enough

CH:

And I’m ready
For the flood
And I’m ready
To draw some blood
Cause I’ve already
Had enough
And I am ready, ready for the Flood

V2

Cause I’m ready
For taking names
And I’m ready
To put an end to these games
I say mama
It’s a crying shame
The walking wounded
In a cross fire hurricane
The walking wounded
In a cross fire hurricane

CH

Instrumental

V3

And I’m ready
For Mick and Keith
And I’m ready to let it bleed
And I’m ready for double speed
And I’m ready to get just what I need

CH:

And I’m ready
To rock and roll
And I’m ready
to take control
there’s a dark cloud
Spreading cross my soul
And I’m ready
To show you what I know
And I’m ready
To show you what I know

Well now ... that was quite a hand grenade! I know a little about them - got scars on my face to prove it.

That's quite a mash of instruments - but it works! The lead instrumental was the best part. And loved the ending. if you could bring those drums a little more forward in the mix, I think it would put a real accent on this one.

You have the hard rock touch, David! Cool song! Wishing you the best.

David,

What do you get when you mix a little Zeppelin, Dylan and Ozzy? You get "Ready For The Flood"! The production on this song is outrageous - it sounds live! Awesome 70s rock vocal.

Loved it!

Vintage David Snyder, AND that's always a good thing!! Very interesting stuff-creative, original and very well done. I can usually pick out chord progressions with one listen but this would take me a week. Enjoyed it much!! As others said, bring the drums up! Take care. Greg

Hello, David

Awesome chord progression!
Really unique and creative.
I cannot imagine how it is assembled.
Vocal and the lead guitar is definitely rock and punk.
As floyd and Tom said, I also think you should turn up the drums.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hey thanks, Alan and Di. I appreciate that.

Am hearing a lot about those drums. An engineer in LA actually told me to turn them down from the first mix so that the scorching guitar riff would stand out.

I am fooling with yet another addition to my mastering software for my next song so we will see how that works. Very delicate balance this stuff, but I am glad you liked it!
