I seem to remember some pretty heavy backing track vocals on "Love Wars"...

JT, one of the reasons i can think of MK not disclosing new material
is this. I think that if he were to do a new lp, with major label
involvement, he would want the deal to be exactly to his liking.
i.e. he would have say in the single(s), have decent promo, and
video production, etc. If he doesnt get this, he wont do a deal.
He prob doesnt see a point in telling a million people that there
will be a new album, when in fact he doesnt yet know.

Sure seems easier to say no at this time, instead of having to
answer follow up questions a million times..like when, who is
gonna write, who is gonna perform, when is it coming, etc, etc,
etc.

Don, the band using samples for something other than percussion
is surely news to me. Do you know this from listening, or from
talking to a band member? I hear nothing in the guitar playing
that suggests samples were used, and nathan wasnt playing it
all live.

AG - Oh my god, nice Jim Jones reference! Who's next,
the Heavenly Gate crew with their Nikes? Talk about
Running in the Family . . .

anyway, if you want to worship somebody, hey Ronald
thanks for the demos, I scored them all! but this one,
the link no work.

. . . and speaking of references, I'll spoil the party
to be the first to mention . . . YCB!
Aarrrgh! Despoiler of virginity! but kudos to them
anyway, they are fun to listen to.
