The Fifth song release in my Home Studio Demo series. I wrote this as a follow up to the last song I wrote called "The Butcher". When recovering after a situation that changes your life all of us do one of two thing, either we fold under what feels like the weight of the world or we triumph to see the brilliance of a bright new day. "ShiNe" is about this passage of triumph we need to find after we rid ourselves from the butchers, thieves and liars that try to consume who we are. I hope you enjoy the song.

Shine MP3 Single Cover

ShiNe (Demo 1.0) by WolfgangCarter

SHINE

I know that you feel
A thousand miles away
And the weight of the world
On your shoulders does portray
I know you've made mistakes
Who hasn't made a few?
But that doesn't mean
You have to give up on you

Girl you gotta hang on
Before all you are is gone
Girl you gotta shine on
Coz it's all over and gone

This world is filled with butchers,
Lawyers, Liars and thieves
Whose only purpose
Is to take a bite of all they see
And Hallmark don't make cards
For situations like these
So trust in who you are
And fly with the greatest of ease

Girl you gotta hang on
Before all you are is gone
Girl you gotta shine on
Coz it's all over and gone
Girl you gotta hang on
Before all you are is gone
Girl you gotta shine on
Coz it's all over and gone

Sometimes truth is not only stranger than fiction, but sadder as well. Hence the title of "The Butcher", the latest song released in my series of "Home Studio Demo" recordings. When relationships end they often end poorly and sometimes the end with serious consequences. A close friend of mine experienced such an ending and gave me the idea for this song. It is written as anthem for her during her recovery for which I hope brings her strength.

The Butcher MP3 Single Cover



The Butcher (Home Demo 1.0) by WolfgangCarter


The Butcher

It started with a scream
Over accusations and dreams
Wants compliance for all he gave
Yet her soul she had to save
There's nothing left to care
But it's all about who cut his hair
Closed his heart and slammed the door
Nothing left except the blood he tore

Look out here comes the butcher
Killing himself from within
Claimed all he did was love her
But she won't die again

Now he's lost and looking for clues
See's her blood point to the truth
With no word he climbs the walls
Spies the ledge and dreams to fall
Had his moment but he let it fade
Now she knows the game that he played
Every word believed was a lie
Now the only true word is goodbye

Look out here comes the butcher
Hiding behind the friend
Just for a chance to see her
But she won't die again

You call yourself a man
What I've seen that up for debate
That's no way for a man to act
Fueled by jealousy, harm and hate

Look out here comes the butcher
Killing himself from within
Claimed all he did was love her
But she won't die again
Look out here comes the butcher
Hiding behind the friend
Just for a chance to see her
But she won't die again

This song is the fourth release in my "Home Studio Demo" series. Came up with the music for the verse one day when just messing around during a Scandal Hounds practice session. The original riff is not quite what you hear but I worked on it until it sounded it right to me then worked out the bridge and chorus sections. Lyrically this song means a lot to me and is very personal. I am very happy with how the demo came out and while there are a few mistakes here and there I didn't think to perfect the song being that it is the demo and was kind of under a time crunch to finish it.

Just Like the Movies


Just Like the Movies (Demo 1.0) by WolfgangCarter

Just Like the Movies

Do you remember the time we shared
And the love to me you gave
That kiss that got you scared
But still taste and crave
Your so irreplaceable
In the way you come alive
But now we find ourselves
Amid transitions in our lives

A different place sure could do you good
Your leaving
Got my guitar in case for the show
I'm going and gone

I know this feels too much to take
Why you ran, why you forsake
No need to hide when we can make it
I wanna wake up and see your face
Take you to a special place
To fall in love with u just like the movies

Do you feel left to doubt
Like you somehow failed the test
You know it's interlacable
Between the headline and the pain
Where is my part in this
Am I a love or just a sin
I want to give you all I've got
But do you still feel the same

A different place sure could do you good
Your leaving
Got my guitar in case for the show
I'm going and gone

I know this feels too much to take
Why you ran, why you forsake
No need to hide when we can make it
I wanna wake up and see your face
Take you to a special place
To fall in love with u just like the movies

I can't explain the fear in this
I see a place for you and I
Let's kiss and make the most of this
Because our passion never died
I know you still believe in me
Your eyes speak whats on your mind
Come take me to your room
Or wherever you may hide

A change of place could sure do you some good
Your leaving
Guitar in hand, I'm singing at the show
And I'm going gone

I know this feels too much to take
Why you ran, why you forsake
No need to hide when we can make it
I wanna wake up and see your face
Take you to a special place
To fall in love with u just like the movies

Here is the newest song in my series of home studio demos called "Pieces". I wrote this from the perspective of an old forgotten teddy bear sitting on a shelf in an older girls room as the stuffed animal watches the girl breakdown. The thought being that we all need comfort from time to time and with the chaos that daily life can be we more often than not forget the little things that are there to offer us support when we need. Things that have been there to witness our ups and downs. Been having some problems with the software I record with but found a way to make the song work despite some issues.

Pieces (Home Demo 1.0) by WolfgangCarter

P I E C E S


You may find me under brick
Or forgotten on your shelf
Once I was part of you
A reflection of your self

I am blood soaked fur
And age old creases
But still here to catch you
When you fall to pieces

They've taken out every stitch
I'm leaking at the seams
My buttons cracked and broken
Only silence when I scream

I am blood soaked fur
And age old creases
But still here to catch you
When you fall to pieces

Came up with this riff a couple of weeks ago along with the chorus but wasn't sure on how to finish it. Song has been nagging me for days. Then one night the whole song just came together. I finished the lyrics, bass line and drums in less than an hour. So I decided since the song came together in such an organic way that I should try and record it with my make shift lap top home studio set up. The quality is by far from what I would prefer but I do think the recording captured the spirit of the song. Hope you enjoy!

She's a small town girl
With a three kid smile
Whose heart has been torn
Broken and dragged
Such a naughty girl
Texts from more than a mile
Her satisfaction has been
Bottled, paid for and bagged

She likes all my songs
And she like to sing alone
But she only love me
When I'm gone

Just another online girl
Who's more fake than real
Addicted to her screen
And all those pretty keys
Loves to collect her men
Sends emails to all her friends
Her couch bound mind loves
Loves to dream and tease

She likes all my songs
And she like to sing alone
But she only love me
When I'm gone

Such a lonely girl
Such a lonely world
Daddy's lost his girl
To such a broken world

She likes all my songs
And she like to sing alone
But she only love me
When I'm gone

She likes all my songs
And she like to sing alone
But she only love me
When I'm gone

Spent last night out at the studio brewing the demo of my song "Lost in Wonder" for final CD release. Track optimization mix downs were done on the following:

    - Vocals: more depth and spirit
    - Drums: tighter and stronger
    - Bass: more tone and added meat
    - Rhythm Guitar: cleaned and even heavier
    - Guitar Leads 2 and 3: combined fury an added bite
    - Guitar Solo: amped up the intensity

Special thanks to Steve for his skill, genius and submarine studio. Could not ask for a better non related brother-in-arms.

Other songs worked on:

    "Mess Around" - wrote chorus lyrics
    "Broken Dish" - wrote drums plus verse 2 and 3 lyrics
    "Maisy Orleans" - wrote verse and chorus lyrics

For the gearfully minded I was lent a vintage Boss OD-1 Over Drive pedal to play and record with over the next two weeks.

Rock oN, be True & sTay sTroNg,
Wolgang

Here are the lyrics with a short home demo preview for a song I wrote called "Worst Nightmare". It is the first for a new band project I started with a friend to be called "The Scandal Hounds". I got the inspiration for this song from listen to the Rolling Stones classic "Sympathy for the Devil". The idea of writing a song the subject matter's perspective intrigued me and was a challenge I needed. I am very happy with how it came out.

The musical preview of the song that is included is not what I would call studio quality because I recorded it quickly at home using an electronic drum set, my guitar and bass with a practice amp and the vocals with a cheap $10 computer microphone onto my lap top with a free demo recording software. You have got to make due with what you have on hand especially these days. So have a listen and enjoy the spirit from which it was created and not based upon it's sonic merit.


Worst Nightmare

I was born a bit worn
But not too worse for wear
With a black toothed grin
And a get back stare
I live off the streets
And the back of your dreams
But I'm not the one
That you think I seem

Come along and step inside
Strap yourself in for the ride
You know that I'm ready to bare
So pleased to meet you
I'm your worst nightmare

I've done my share of lightning
Drank my weight in gasoline
Died just for the fun of it
And was the first one on the scene
I live in the back of your closet
Under bed and between the seams
I'm the one your Mother warned you about
And your Father calls so obscene

(Guitar Solo)

I'm you naked at the meeting
Praying it's all just a dream
I'm the sound stuck in your throat
When you wake and try to scream
Some they call me the boogie man
Others say Freddie or creep
I'm the ledge where you fall from
And the ground you hit with a shriek

Come along and step inside
Strap yourself in for the ride
You know that I'm ready to bare
So pleased to meet you
I'm your worst nightmare

Here is the rough draft for the first verse and chorus for a song called "Lockdown". This is the first song in a new project I am working with a friend called "The Scandal Hounds".

Lockdown

First Verse:
It was a night I'd rather forget
One of those nights I should have quit
But the girls all looked good
And the drinks were strong and cheap
Lord I hadn't been driving
Down that empty street
Now I'm back down in county
With some dude funky like feet


Chorus:
First I'm gone now I'm back again
Without a phone, care or a friend
Give me peace or a moment of zen
Coz lord I'm back in lockdown again
