Rough concept! Recorded at home with an M-Audio Firewire 410, Taylor Acoustic, and Shure PG48. Everything but the lead vocal was done with the guitar - that includes the BG vox and drums!
Delta Cry is one of my favorite songs that I've ever written - it tells a story, yet it doesn't... it kinda lets you write it. I wrote the lyrics for the opening of the comic book and then set it to music later - the end result being way more upbeat than I originally planned. I at the time had no idea how to play guitar.
So a year later, we have this - playing all the parts here. And obviously, I still can't play guitar.

I happen to have liked the upbeat version :-P
This is amazing stuff though. I love the raw guitar-slap drums on it. When you hold out that first line "Gone gone and so is God..." it's just fantastic.

Just gorgeous. I love acoustic versions and this one is absolutely beautiful. I really like both versions. Guitar in this one is especially excellent.
