This song says, "Grab life by the balls." It's about a bitter old guy who never had the courage to go for what he wanted and got what he deserved.

riff-heavy rock & melodic instrumental guitar music in all styles
i play guitar, used to sing lead. i can make my way around on keys & can hit drums enough to get a real drummer in the groove. used to play mostly heavy stuff, but now songs just go where they go...could be anywhere. i listen to jazz more than i used to, and find things i like all over: hard rock, pop, old country, jazz, jam bandselectric/acoustic/vocal/instrumentalwhatever. i played in groups for years; haven't for a long time. lately it sounds fun again, so i'll be workin' on new stuff. i’d rather put together a group than join one, unless i find something perfect. rather not front a group this time. lots of old stuff posted right now; check it out, and hit me up if you want to jam. constructive feedback always appreciated- PEACE lowell

Story behind the song
This tune uses what's called a device (a specific method to produce a result)- it constantly changes tempo between half-time and double-time, and telegraphs the changes to make the listener anticipate the kick. The half-time parts sorta drag and when the double-time hits, it's electric. I gotta give my old band-mates their props for all these older tunes: Pat Fagg guitar and backing vocals(and vocals on "Jus' Livin'") he's currently playin' in a heavy Christian band in Juneau, AK called Divine Appointment; info on them and some of their music can be found here: http://www.divineappointment777.com Scott Bloom Bass guitar and backing vocals (and vocals on "All F*ed Up") Jeff Burdick drums currently fronting a great reggae group called Little Big Man, he writes tons of original material and plays guitar/sings lead at gigs all over the Pacific NW. More info on Jeff & Little Big Man can be found here: http://www.littlebigman.net/BAND/index.htm Chris Hao guitar This guy's an amazing guitarist- maybe the best I've ever met. He recently bailed for the good life of surf and sun in New Zealand and we're all sure he's takin' the place by storm!
Lyrics
from Infidel's "Litterbox Sandwich" music & lyrics by Lowell Pelkey old man alone again slowly weakening bitterness closing in things he's never seen never seen no search for fantasy adventure yet untold wasted the summer sun left to your winter snow you know you made it so tick off the days before you wait for that long cold sleep frustration toll on you the reaper seals your fate and so you sit and wait you schemed to climb the walls but never risked escape scared of the other side you pissed your life away you know you're a coward
