If that's true: Fine by me. A long long time ago bands used to re-record vocals on so called "live" records when these were fashionable and therefore important enough to be released. So MP use autotuning to keep the listening experience easy on the ears. I thank them.
Cheating? Well there's pride involved. As a musician you don't really want your screeching, tour abused vocal chords heard for all eternity on a piece of music that was picked of the lot to be released because from the playing point of view it would be the best performance. And if we want the "true" odd note experience, there's more than enough fan recordings around.
oh nice.
So I put versions of Kill Some Day in the dropbox if anyone's interested.The drums were programmed, so this makes it a bit mechanical but also steady in time, meaning the bass only track can be used for a drummer at a click time of 185.19 (don't ask why it's such an odd number…), especially considering the pause and sudden impact towards the end of the song.
Also I didn't do a fade out but a rather "live" proper ending.

there's the option of sending files there and back if people have some audio programs that work well together. i got cubase and ableton live. then someone would glue them together and do the mix.
that's only two players? all live? or overdubs? if no overdubs how do you do the backing sounds and noisescapes things?
if you – like me – haven't ever noticed: there's lots of Oya's Monster clips right here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHznSPFtK5s&feature=related
i think i haven't listened to this album in a year. how foolishly foolish. an underrated masterpiece!
I'm very impressed by your band and songs. The writing and the playing and the production is perfect. Are all your songs this long? Quite a unique style. I mean, the basics of the songs are so "non-prog" or whatever. They're rather gentle and easy accessible, so one probably wouldn't expect them to go on this long. Which is a nice take on things. I would sign you on the spot if I had a label.
I also find the bass and bassdrum could be louder though, and I have good monitor speakers. Any the voice a bit quieter maybe? Personal taste….
