Golden Veins Singles Club - Month 6

"Being Strangled"

Well, it's hard to be believe, but we've already reached the halfway mark of this little journey we are calling "Golden Veins Singles Club." If you thought the first half was great, just wait until you hear what's coming up....

Anyway,let's see what Greg has to say about the two tracks...

"BEING STRANGLED" I don’t have much to say about “Being Strangled”; it’s mainly Scott’s baby. Micah, another stalwart of the Des Moines music scene sings backing vocals and plays guitar on this one. It’s a great song…it has a palpable overcast day feeling. I like singing someone else’s words and melodies, and I think Scott writes really good lyrics and melody. He comes at it in a different way than I do.  "US MERE MORTALS" One night while screwing around with beats and keyboards, we came up with the foundation for “Us Mere Mortals”. I made the initial beat and put in the harp notes, Ryan added the keyboard trills and Scott basically wrote the other two sections of the song. I tried writing words and melody to the whole song, and we even thought about getting in someone to rap over a part, but ultimately we felt the song worked best with main vocals saved to the very end. Scott also added in the various spoken-word samples. Hopefully the cumulative effect of these elements makes up, at least in some part, for the lack of rapping.

Also included with this single is a brutal remix by Matt Bad, as well as fantastic artwork by Michelle Holley.

The single drops today, so get to it!
