Hello David
Yes, you are right, Liar Kings would also fit well as a title.
But the main message of the song is to stand up to the government that is dividing society.
I went to a neighboring town today to see a huge light show. Afterwards, I wanted to eat something. I was not sold anything because I was not vaccinated..... I was only allowed to see the show but not eat or drink anything. That can't be all there is to it.
It just doesn't stop after 2 years in Germany.
Fortunately, at least some countries are slowly becoming reasonable again and live like humans again.
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

Andi,

You managed to get a super heavy rock sound out of those realtracks!
I feel this is one of your best productions, at least of the one's I have heard! Excellent song from start to end! Thanks, Torrey

Well done Andi... I agree with the premise of your song, and I'm sickened by all the lies that divide us. a good rocker tune...

Hello David
when I translate the text, it is absolutely correct in German and does not raise any questions
I had no questions about the text until now
From the topic it is actually always clear which persons I actually mean
But you are of course right, one can interpret it also differently
But honestly, I don't know how I should put it in the text correctly.
That is of course always the danger that in a foreign language such misunderstandings can arise.
If I would make music professionally, I would have for that my people ;-)
but since I am in the forum I have Marty and you to write better lyrics
Thanks and greetings
Andi ;-)

Although I'm more into jazz and its variants I started with hard rock so I can enjoy a good tune when I hear one and yours definetely falls into that catagory! wink
I'm shocked like others what you could get off of BIAB, this is super impressive. Your vocals fits super well with the punchy vibe of the tune, the drums are powerful, great mix and very nice guitars!

Hi Andi,

That's a very cool song! Heavy stuff, but very well performed.
Liked that sologuitar much.
I enjoyed listening and it captivates from start to finish!

One small thing: the echo you use for some 'last' words starts too close to the real voice.
If you give it more distance from the start that would work out a bit nicer.
But it is a matter of taste, I admit.

Hans

Hello Ray
Thanks for your feedback
Yes the vocals I have also wished a little better
But on the whole not so bad
But with a top singer the song would have a completely different quality. That is for sure
To the statement of the song: There everyone has his point of view.
Especially in Germany I can only say that the government lies to us every day and with ever new laws the people harassed and driven into ruin and unemployment. All this has nothing to do with the virus for a long time. That a song causes nothing has already shown the past. But that the people go on the street and demonstrate against it is the only means against this wrong policy.
Thank you for your honest feedback, Ray ;-)
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

Hi Andi,

This is definitely one of the best rock songs I have ever heard on this forum, amazing that you did it all with BIAB. Excellent vocal too, lots of passion, and nicely produced.

Give me a shout if I ever miss one of your songs please. I try and keep up, but with so many songs being uploaded these days sometimes I might miss one.

Hello Torrey
Thank you for your kind words
I have played only hard rock for 20 years.
That's what I do best ;-)
With BiaB it is not possible to play only hard rock.
So I try also other music styles
However, then there is also the danger that one makes mistakes in songwriting.
But the main thing is fun
Thanks a lot Torrey
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

Hello bloc-head
Thank you for your feedback.
Yes everything is now in the background due to the war.
But the lies and the damages associated with them remain forever....

Hi Andy,

Missed this one and was busy with some other projects, you know laugh
Great rock song!
Although I don't agree with you, as far as the lyrics are concerned.
But that doesn't count here, it's the music that counts.
