Hi All, Here's our latest on SoundCloud. This is somewhat of an indie-style rock tune called JOURNEY. I walk the long road A lonely footfall Every time I meant to run I fell Or I crawled A whisper in the dawn A shadow or a fawn Every time I meant to stay I left I recall This road is never free It’s costing you and me This road is never free It’s costing you and me The room is barely lit Your breath against my wrist Every time I meant to speak I waited I missed The night won’t say my name The air feels much the same Every time I swore I’d kneel I stood Ashamed This road is never free It’s costing you and me This road is never free It’s costing you and me This road is never free It’s costing you and me This road is never free It’s costing you and me BIAB Tracks: 1009: Bass, Electric, HardRock 2755: Bass, Electric, Rock 2541: Pedal Steel, Background 3738: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm 3729: Guitar, Electric, Soloist 3064: Vocal Oohs, Rhythm Loop: Noisescratch100b RealDrums: MetalSlowTomGroove Other Notes: Bob Mic: Logitech Blue Yeti Bob Vocals: Logic Pro Bob Acoustic Guitar: Martin D-18 Joliz Mic: Audio Technica AT2020USB+ Joliz Vocals: GarageBand Waves Vocal Rider: All Vocals Pre-Production: Track Editing GarageBand & Logic Pro Izotope Nectar 3 Elements for Vocals Izotope Plasma for Instrument Tracks Processing Waves Magma Stressbox: Pre-master Final Track Mix & Master: Logic Pro & Izotope Ozone 11 Video: Adobe Firefly, iMovie & Final Cut Pro As always - thanks for listening!

Hi Bob!
This is so cool - and different to what I’m used to from you. This song makes fantastic use of Joliz, and her singing tone suits the genre I think. Your voice has some Neil Young qualities to it. I loved listening to that grungy sound of the band you arranged.
Well done on the video as well - you’re producing some good visuals to support your music.
Enjoyed it a lot!
Andrew

Hi Bob and Joliz,
What did you eat yesterday??? What a unique song you've made! Is this really an Indian rock style? It leans more towards metal, at least the way that bass is going.
But the funny thing is, I actually think it's a really great song! Your harmonies sound very strong and even a bit menacing. This makes it wonderful to listen to. Alone, though... And I'm doing this now, for the third time. Imagine what I think.
Greetings to Joliz!
Hans

Bob and Joliz, this is totally different genre for you but it is as good as everything else you have posted.
Outstanding vocals and great lyrics
Super backing band and mix
loved it
The bumper sticker said "I'm a veterinarian, therefore I can drive like an animal".
Suddenly I realized how many proctologists are on the road.

Love this, Bob! Super song with superb vocals by the two of you. Love the drums driving that deliciously glooming backing track. Great use of BiaB instruments. That BiaB soloist worked out great for the fills and sounds like it was played especially for the song. Nicely arranged and mixed, too. Is there anything the two of you CAN'T do???

Different in some ways, but so Bob & Joliz in all the best ways. The drums pound extra definition for the lyrics. The lyrics are (as always ) extraordinary. Dirge-like in sound and message. All the best to you two.
