I'm bored and waiting to eat dinner, so I expanded on a riff I had in my head and wrote some lyrics right quick. About 15 minute effort, but let me know what you think. It will take 2:30 minutes of your time

I like the riff. I don't know if I care for the melody line though that much. Since this was only a 15minute effort give it some time and develop the vocal line, and this could sound pretty good
I'll play it first and tell you what it is later.

dude, please stay out of my threads. The only thing you do is try to make clever (yet unfunny) cracks towards me. That's not what the boards are for, I dont need you badgering me with your satire.

chill out kahn

It sounds 10x more like Keller than it does Umphrey's, in fact, nothing about it resembles any UM song. I like the guitar work, vocals sound pretty good too, but like someone else said, I'm not a huge fan of the vocal melody. Maybe try reworking that.

I agree, reminded me a lot about Keller. I liked the whole song, actually. Well done, Kahn.

If you don't want to listen to a recording then don't...but don't make an idiotic post that nothing good can come out of. If anything, people won't be so quick to check out your recordings.
