Voodoo Epidemic - "When China Takes Over"

[onefrayedrepublic]

This is actually better than much of what is on the radio presently. Nicely done.

It's pretty good besides the vocal recordings. Not the voice or lyrics, just the quality. But good overall.
You sing, play guitar, or drums?

This is Cake, isn't it? Haha.

Howdy folks. I'm afraid it's time for a shameless plug-in.

I've recently formed a band. It's an alternative rock band and this is our first single.

I apologize if I placed this in the wrong forum. Some of the greatest rock critics I know frequent this spot. I just kinda want to gauge some response.

Thanks,
John / The Realest Ninja

Are you sending the single to alternative radio nationally? And if not, would I be allowed to post what my band might consider our single despite it not having an official adds date in this forum too?

I'll check the song out regardless, but I'm at work now so I'll wait until I get home and can listen with headphones.

^ He's releasing a single to iTunes, so are you? It'd be cool to see the day an official Bushwhack single gets shipped off to rock radio.. oh wait..

Bushwhack - "Stonewall"
Goes for adds May 10th (FMQB)

congrats!

[jvandyck87]

Hehe well if you get that job at FMQB, we're all set....right???? :)

And we've released all our albums on iTunes so we've had no need to release singles there. We have a new song that we may consider giving a small radio push, but it's not as commercial as "Stonewall". It's more us though, which we think is more important.

We're primarily looking at college stations that lean alternative.

I don't see a reason why not. I just placed it here because I did not know where it belonged. Other than that is a question for the moderators. It's not like we're street teamers.

I thought that sounded pretty freaking good. Obviously, yeah the quality wasn't the best, but it was very 90s sounding, which I love. Very much like Cake. I don't know if you have already, but I would try sending that to the band and see if maybe they can add you to one of their tours or something to gain some exposure. I'd agree that college stations would be the best place to start and likely I'd think would be a good target audience along with people older from their mid-late 20s to their younger 30s who grew up with Cake in their prime.

I never thought we would sound like Cake, but now that you guys mention it, I can see it. The guy singing the verses is a big metalhead, so it'll be funny when I tell him he sounds like John McCrea.
