Death Swing

At the end of one of our band practices, we decided to video one of our sillier songs. Normally we write our own stuff - mostly funk and rock, but this is a new genre we've invented - DEATH SWING! (a mixture of swing and death metal haha). You may notice the riff is stolen from 'Lose yourself' by Eminem!
Anyway, here it is. We were just jamming it so it goes on for quite a while. Also it's a bit messy, but to be fair we had been playing for four hours before this, and we were all hungover from going out for Mo's birthday the night before. To make matters worse, my kick drum pedal broke at the very beginning of the song (the beater fell off) so I couldn't do the bass drum beat I planned - I had to keep it simple instead. Anyway, I'll stop making excuses and let you watch it!
Drums = Me
Guitar = Mo
Bass = Nye

I should have said that instead of Eminem - the Clash are far cooler.
"Death Swing" sort of makes me think of a possible tabloid reference to a hazardous piece of playground equipment that has killed 12 toddlers, or perhaps a cheap carnival ride.
I know...I have this morbid streak.
Group streak!!!!
er... never mind.
I want to start rapping that song too, I'll be bringing me mic to the next practise fo' sho (see, I've already started adopting the lingo).
So thank you God for giving us a place to practice!
Epic is good, but there are limits haha. We frequently get lost in the groove and go on for ever! It never seems that long when we're playing, but when I watch it back it seems twice as long haha.
Waheeey!
So actually you owe use three lovely hats please.
(mom's spaghetti)
....
... Can you give us some lovely hats anyway?
When respected Hip-Hop pioneer "The Tangible T" heard about death swing and the campaign for free hats as a response to soiled sweaters he found it in his heart to make a charity video to promote public awareness.
