Judgment Day

By David Snyder

https://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs2/judgment-day

V1

Every time I watch the t.v.
They’re putting up another fence
From the White House to the border
Nothing but hate and violence
And when I see the face of evil
I can tell it hasn’t changed
He died his hair another color
But he still talks and acts deranged

CH

And oh baby
We have to find another place
And oh baby
We can’t wait on Judgment Day

V2

Seven Riders are approaching
For the First Apocalypse
Oh God in heaven please forgive us
Will be the words on everybody’s lips

CH

And oh baby
I don’t know what else to say
And oh baby
We can’t wait on Judgment Day
And oh baby, we both know that that’s too late

Bridge

I need to know that someone’s listening
Cause I can’t go this one alone
I need to know the cross is empty
And that they rolled away the stone

V3

So I’ll keep praying and believing
And I’ll imagine all I want
I’d rather dream that there's a heaven
Cause we have nothing if we don’t

CH

And oh baby
I don’t know what else to say
And oh baby
We can’t wait on Judgment Day
And oh baby, we both know that that’s too late

Wow! A bit apocalyptic but definitely hittin' home.

This is one of your best vocal performances...really emotive and strong.

Get kind of an updated Blonde On Blonde vibe...

Excellent!

Well done! Straightforward arrangement, good write, good mix, nice singing.

But... I always thought there were Four Horseman of the Apocalypse? wink

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Cool and then some.

David,

I really like the direct, straight-forward write and vocal delivery. One of your best vocals and a stellar arrangement. Great song, great message, great delivery. You really shine on this one. Best to you.

I like the way your voice soars on "And oh baby." What a great sound with your instrumentation: the guitars seem to swirl and surround me, causing me to see the music in colors. Great lyrics too. So true, so true.

David,
the angst, near despair and hurt are well depicted in this song.
Desperate times, desperate acts, desperate hope and desperate measures are better than despair.
Your playing really kicked this along.
Well done.
I had to come back - I'd walked around the house singing the chorus in my head for an hour!!!
There's some good Tom Petty in this as well.
Good Ear Worm!!

David,

Stunning. Jaw-droppingly good.

This is a truly excellent write. Not a single word out of place.

Nice arrangement. Tasty stuff added at the right times. Good drum sound. The strings are cool. I thought the bass could have been just a touch "beefier" (but I can hear it fine).

Your vocal is really nice. It has heart.

A big WOW, Mr Snyder. I like everything about this.

YOUR. BEST. EVER.

Thanks Joe!

I so appreciate you pointing out the "timbre." I worked really hard on that and struggled with it forever before I got it right.

It came down to getting an exact sound on the acoustics, and then using a very specific amp sound with my stratocaster playing several parts.

Thanks for noticing man!!

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
