Walrus Grab Bag 5 Reveal

And in 4th place we have

Song starts out pretty solid and then gets weird a bit past the 3 minute mark. Such a shame too. I like Sonic Youth.

To lead into the bronze metal, another great spoken word song

We’re like Sonic Youth fan opposites. I love the bits after the meandering opening.

Bronze metal

Love it. It has the feel of a poem which is the only very minor flaw in this. Otherwise, it’s solid.

Surprised this wasn’t picked given the demographics of this forum

I love this, but that’s like the stairway to heaven of spoken words.

The building music to the crescendo is solid here.

I think Louis sent me a song from that band so that’s unfortunate.

I was really not expecting to get a good opportunity to submit this, so to podium with it is quite a bonus. Glad variance was on my side today and it landed 2nd instead of 6th!

Music is terrific. Story is terrific. It’s a good thing I asked for a better quality because it’s pretty poorly balanced. The vocals need to be more emphasized and not overwhelmed by the guitar.

Oh very cool to see La Dispute here! I’ve submitted a few of their songs in Walrus before (and seen them live).

Well judged, I am happy to lose to one of their songs.

Thanks for the reveal!
