about

I was rummaging around an old hard drive, and I came across some old demos of songs that I wrote back around 2001/2002. The first half were performed by The First Seven, a band I played with between 2007 and 2012, and the last half were performed by the third incarnation of a band called honeyman, who I played with between 1997 and 2002.

I had absolutely no idea how to record or mix, but some of it sounds ok.

The style is pretty straight up hard rock, with a bit of groove, a bit of grunge, and a bit of cheek.

Yours for free, if you want it, as I would have no idea how to split any earnings between all of the people involved.
