I do indeed dig it--deeply!
Love the sh^t-kicking quality of the drums and guitar, and then things go pear-shaped (in a good way!) with the psychedelic synthesizer (what did you use there, by the way? It has a real vintage sound to it).
I had a little trouble hearing the guitar solo, but that might be my ****** computer speakers' fault, not the mix.
Bravo!

Thanks.
Copious amounts of mind altering substances were mainly used in the production of this track!
The synth sound is via a Korg Triton. I messed with the settings on a feedbacking theremin sounding thing, not having a clue what I was doing and ended up with the sound that you hear, which I think is great for the track.
The guitar part you refer to as the 'solo' was purposely kept low in the mix.
I wanted the track to be more about the vibe of the whole thing, rather than having too many individual parts standing out.
Thanks for listening.
Rob.
BTW. The Rics on this track are my...
330/6 FG (Back Rythm)
330/6 BlueBoy (Main Rythm)
620/6 DG (Riffy bits)

The English would rather cram their mouths full of LSD tabs rather than mess with the scary Irn Bru!

This is indeed a really sweet-sounding song. The production feels "right" too. Liking the beat and the vocals a lot.

They keep on delivering Irn Bru, but we just don't get it.

They say that every guitar has a new song in it.
So I reckon that I only need to buy another 8 Rickenbackers and I should have enough for an album!
Thanks for taking the time to listen.

They do indeed, but I buy guitars to play them, and I'm running at capacity now! (Until the next one comes along!)
Thanks for listening.
