NFR 008 Jerry Fels How To Make Enemies And Influence Strangers MP3s: The Things You Need To Do, The Things We Are Made Of |
Jerry spent late 2003 and all of 2004 and even a little bit of early 2005 writing and recording this album. Some may say that he still didn't spend enough time, but they're just the haters and there's no pleasing them anyways. There's a lot of singing on it (don't wince, it's not as bad as it used to be, but if you were hoping for Justin Timberlake then personally it's my opinion that you should rethink what you are doing in life). There's some bad words on it so maybe you'll want to wait until your parents are out of the house before you crank it on your stereo. There's more guitar on it than usual and less keyboard than usual. There's also some drums. If you're a dork then you may be interested to know that most of the album was recorded almost entirely with SM57's (at times even ONE SM57 micing both guitar and vocals), there's a few large diaphragm bass drum mics here and there, and the only condenser mics used are on the fingersnaps in Track #9. But don't be fooled by cosmetics and semantics - if you are then you're just a vapid trend-follower and a poseur and all your friends talk behind your back about you're a lot less cooler than you think you are - anyhow, these tracks are hot.
