A Plug for a Friend

Recommended Posts

Brian Hunsacker used to be a regular on the old forum. Back then, when I saw that he was local to me I contacted him and thus began our long friendship. I once helped record his band at a live gig and even though that band's aggressive metal wasn't exactly my cup 'o chamomile I was impressed by his guitar and vocal chops, as well as that of the co-guitarist. Also turns out he speaks Chinese, which he once showed off when we went out to lunch at a Chinese restaurant. Since then, Brian has moved to Texas and refuses to let the dream die. Let's give my buddy a few more views.

Good voice and chops, I agree :)

Thank you sir! I totally spaced to post the song here, thanks to bitflipper for reminding me about this place!

I'll bookmark it for next time for sure. I have been using Cakewalk again since Bandlab bought it back after a brief 1-song stint with Reaper, so it makes sense to post here.

Very oddly, BTW, this song was written and recorded in my car at work during lunch. As ridiculous and METAL as that sounds. That's literally the only time I had, with 2YO twin boys at home. Now I'm finally - 6 years later - getting all these songs finished up and pro sounding, but with those original car vocal and guitar recordings.

Not usually my type of music either but I really appreciate the musicianship and enjoyed the song.  Bravo!

That's great to hear! Thanks for the comment and the listen. My stuff runs the gamut from full on ballad (coming 3 songs from now) to total rocking metal. You may enjoy some others. I'll make sure to post here on release :)

Me likey!

Oh come on man. We've all come to expect more out of you than this. With a thread title like "A Plug For A Friend", I thought for sure a pic of Ed and a strategically placed Alembic would have showed up here by now ... if only for a brief moment before it was deleted. :D
