myself playing modest mouse

[xcanarinho]

Hello
We played modest mouse today (feb 29), third planet
we didn't rehearse it, bassist doesn't usually listen to this
then we told him basic notes. and that's it.
we haven't found bands playing modest mouse, if any of you know any band who does it..tell me
you can find our mp3 here:

Holy shit thats good! The only bad part is I cant really hear the vocals. But other than that its way awesome.

[lochreas]

I've done several Modest Mouse covers and one Ugly Casanova cover. Here are a few that I've done. I'll post more later if y'all want. :tu:

Let me know what you think...

Cowboy Dan (http://www.lochreas.com/Lochreas-CowboyDan.mp3) - This is the first one I ever did. It's an acoustic version and the sound quality isn't too great.

Parasites (http://www.lochreas.com/Lochreas-Parasites.mp3) - UC!!!

Tiny Cities Made of Ashes (http://www.lochreas.com/Lochreas-TinyCitiesMadeOfAshes.mp3) - Here is an unfinished demo that I did. I sort of skipped some stuff towards the end.

What People Are Made Of (http://www.lochreas.com/TheRomanPolanskiOrchestra-whatpeoplearemadeof.mp3) - My band, The Roman Polanski Orchestra, did a cover of this song at practice once. The sound quality is the worst of them all, but it's audible!

Lochreas

very good!!
the other songs of your site too
do you sing and play the guitar?

[lochreas]

Yes, I play all the instruments except drums on the Lochreas songs. My friend played drums on "What People Are Made Of."

Thanks for the feedback! :) Your cover of "Third Planet" was pretty good as well.

[hobie]

I'm dying to hear y'alls samples!!! Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to check them out. :)

hi ppl, i've recorded two acoustic versions (wild and 3rd with "louder voice" lol), and put an old acoustic for hotcha girl (UC).... download here:

amdreluiz/xcarinho: you really can't sing too well...at all, and you are playing the intro to hotcha girls wrong, and the middle not too well either. you are playing the chords on third planet wrong too. and on second listen, you can't sing for shit.


lochreas- you can't sing for shit either, and that's basically it. i liked the harmonics on parasites. you got good mouse there. that is really the only of your songs i liked, besides the voice.

[amdreluiz]

Hi Phenix199
well, it's not supposed to be so good as you seemed to want. Actually xcanarinho is not in... that's just me. But I like singing pretty bad anyway, coz I like the way isaac sings out of tune on MM live shows ;o)
but thanx for your opinion, i'll try to amend the wrong parts.

Thanks, now let me hear your perfect versions, plz. :tu:

By the way, thanks for your criticism. I'm not really a singer.

[matt...]

i dont have any other versions, because i can't sing for shit either. i'm not saying i'm better, i'm not saying i can at all. i'm just saying that he can't sing that well. no one says you have to be able to do something, to know if something sucks.

and lochreas, you're the only person who took my advice constructively, and i'm glad to see there is someone on this board who isn't a fucking retard. thanks for not blowing up.

[amdreluiz]

if anyone wants to do the same as the original tracks, they'd just listen the cd... you're a bastard who's jealous because some ppl may like what's posted, and u can't do a shit. If you don't make it better, you shouldn't call anyone like "shit", you could as well say it's not really good, u didn't like it.. no need for "can't do for shit"..

[matt...]

i don't want the original tracks, but i want something good to listen to.

if it isn't good i'll tell you, and i did. life isn't all roses, you faggot.

[amdreluiz]

obviously is not roses,
but brock probably knows he's not god,
why would we?
just because your mother left you when you were a child... you're nervous with everyone...

[matt...]

what the fuck does all that mean?

[xcanarinho]

we did a better quality version for third planet, and voice is audible now.. there's a cut around 0:40..

[lochreas]

Can't we all just get along? Lolz you guyz, Phenix is just trying to help and I really appreciate the criticism. I mean not many people have heard my stuff and I'm sure it's the same for you Amd, so it's great to hear some comments.

Let's not go all crazy on a message board about it.

Don't we all wish we could sing like Isaac :-D

[amdreluiz]

not exactly about this lochreas, if you go around the message board, you'll see this phenix199 is just messing
after i read some of his posts i saw it was just to bother...
i don't think sayin you don't blabla "for shit" is a good opinion
he could say, he didn't like the voice, that's it..
i know many ppl on msg board don't like this guy..
it's not contructive opinions, is trying to diss ppl around..
his tab is wrong, but NO!! it's because he's playing "a live version"
you make me laugh phenix..


well, now i saw phenix199 is helping on some tabs posts, that's good..
this way you really help everyone..

[alltalk]

amdreluiz- you sucking has nothing to do with brock. go take some lessons or shoot yourself in the face.

[hobie]

And they're off; who will win the battle of the "I sing better then you do" race? :oho:


Anyway, I hate doing this but I see both sides here...phenix199 was just being honest w/his criticism and I'm someone who openly welcomes such, since I rather have it told to me straight up then to have others cake the situation but then again, I see that others don't view this the same way as I do which is understandable of course. Anyway, to ease this situation, I'm just gonna lock this thread since the last thing I want is for others to be on the defensive on this site. Hope y’all don't mind...

[hobie]

So it appears that a few of y'all did mind which is fine of course.


Anyway, thread's back open so carry on.

[matt...]

which of my threads was i offense and being bitchy in?

[lochreas]

lolz, let's just delete all the posts that don't contain links to songs! then lock it and that'll solve everything. this turned into a crappy thread anyway. it's all about arguing now.
