Fast-paced and fairly serious without being too sad.

Feel free to check out my music, and comment if you like. I know, the recording quality could be better, but I'm not bothered at the moment - just wanted to get used to recording with my new soundcard. It's melodic rock, guitar based......I'd say Joe Satriani and Eric Johnson are my influences, although I'll never be up to their level. I know, listening to my stuff is probably like playing a game of spot-the-mistake, but I'm semi-satisfied with the ideas at least!

Story behind the song
I started both "Unforgiven" and "Hammered" a few months ago and then didn't know what to do with them. I got inspired to pick up "Hammered" again and write the rest of it, and then realised that "Unforgiven" would make a good intro if I just upped it's tempo a bit to match the main track. All guitar parts are recorded using just my Ibanez SA1260, my Morley wah pedal and Carvin amp....it's not a bad showcase for the tone of the guitar's DiMarzio pickups. Double-tracking some of the guitar parts was a little tricky but worth it for the extra tone it added to the overall sound. There is no hidden meaning behind the title(s), but spending time with a good friend gave me the inspiration and creativity to get it finished, so I guess there's almost a dedication there!
