Story Behind The Song

I laid down this demo on guitar and added vocal on a 4 track in the basement in 1996. Shonn came over and ran through it a few times and added his monstrous and memorable lead guitar.

Lyrics

An Unknown Singer
in an unknown band
I sing a song to the mountains,
the sun, and the land.
As far as I can see...
everything belongs to me
Unknown singer unknown band
song to the mountains and the sun and the land.
all the creatures in the sea
and Me!

Very wild and enjoyable...

Very punk, indie attitude :) I actually love the from-the-bedroom guitar sound that combines punk and 80s metal. The UK-sounding vocal adds to the punk vibe, but it also straddles the metal line. Cool genre mash-up!

I really like the lyrics of this song, short as they may be. I can see this guy standing on a rock on the California shore or some beautiful place looking out over the landscape and singing his heart out: The whole world is his! Who cares if anybody knows? There's a pretty mean screaming guitar and a lot of passion in this track.

Very brief but witty piece. Instrumentation is really good and guitar solo is awesome.
