So after our last Grant and Green gig (lotsa Gs!) one of my Bad Decisions decided it was time for him to move on. This came as somewhat of a shock to me, as I thought he was having a good time, but far be it from me to hold someone back from having a good time. So, so long and be happy!<\/p>\n

Naturally I was a little bummed out about this as I was pretty happy with the way things were sounding. I checked w. Bad Decision #1 (Steve) who said he was still having a good time and was up for keeping on. So we forged forth, looking for a new skins player.<\/p>\n

I was concerned we might never find someone (the last time Steve and I looked for a drummer it took us 7 or 8 months), but happily enough a couple buddies emerged showing an interest in holding down the rhythm for us. I kept cruising personals anyway, and the first person to write me back seemed like there was a lot of potential.<\/p>\n

Longish story short, that was a few months ago and I’m happy to announce that Ace Crow has joined the ranks of my Bad Decisions. We were real happy with Ace as a drummer and a chill guy, and looked forward to getting some tracks done with him.<\/p>\n

So after a mere 5 practices, we went back to ole Faithful – mics hanging from the walls of our practice space, plugged into my trusty M-Audio Fast Track Pro, leading into my laptop. We knocked out 9 tunes in a couple hours, I set to mix them in REAPER<\/a> (probably the best $60 bucks I ever spent), and voila!<\/i> – here are the 4 recordings I thought turned out the best:<\/p>\n

\nAnts<\/strong><\/em>

\nGerman Girl<\/strong><\/em>

\nDie in a Fire<\/strong><\/em>

\nSluttering\/May 4th<\/strong><\/em> (Jawbreaker Cover)
\n[audio:http:\/\/severebass.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Sluttering.mp3|titles=Sluttering\/May 4th (Jawbreaker Cover)]\n<\/p>\n

If you for some reason need hi quality wav files of these tunes and have $5 you can give me via paypal, please mosey on over to our bandcamp page<\/a>, pony up the cash, and download in whatever format you’d like.<\/p>\n

Or you can, you know, stream em from free here. I guess if yer real savvy you can probably figure out how to download the mp3s too, but the wav files are gonna cost you!<\/p>\n

Now it’s time to book some gigs and bring this shit to who it’s intended for – the MASSES!<\/b> (I don’t mean my friend Santos<\/a> – not that kind of mass)<\/i>.<\/p>\n
