So, my friends made this and since I'd do anything to help a friend...

(besides sexual favors, anyway) Yep, some gamer friends of mine got together and made this... Rocka-psycho-surfer-billy thing. The bad news? I have no idea what a rockapsychosurferbilly is, or why it's a genre (Okay, I'm fucking around, it's actually just called Psychobilly apaprently).

The good news is: it sounds pretty wicked, IMHO!

Dude really needs to tone down the gargle-growl on his vocals.  He's definitely trying too hard, I think it'd actually be more effective if he accented his singing with it less.

Really good stuff though, I've found I usually enjoy well-executed psychobilly.  Reminds me a lot of a band that comes around here every so often called The Creepshow.

Good video too.  Love the barbershop bits for the backup vocal accents in the chorus.

Definitely agreed. I'm not gonna lie, that's pretty much what everyone who's listened to that has said. I think maybe using the growl as an accent on the occasional word(s) or verse or the chorus here and there would be more effective, but thankfully he seems to be taking everything everyone has said seriously. I'm also worried he'll kill his voice that way, 'cause that does NOT sound like a comfortable voice to sing in.

Just watched the video (er, well, images and music) and holy crap, that's rather good as well!
