Singled Out: Six O'Clock Saints' Cancer Girl
. For the most part, the songs on Exculpation were recorded in small rooms, closets, and basements, but for the song "Cancer Girl", we wanted to do something different. We wanted to get this big, dark sound, so we recorded it on the top floor of the warehouse we practice in. When you're up there, you hear the traffic noises below, (most of the windows are busted out), and it is littered with 100 year old dirt and grime and bird feces. Actually, the traffic noises and bird tweets you hear in the beginning of the track were the natural sounds the mics picked up when we started the the drum track. It sounded so cool we decided to leave them in there. The song itself started as an acoustic folk song, (really)! Andy and Allen wrote it in Allen's bedroom in about 5 minutes. When they brought it to practice, Tony said, "I like it, but could you slow it down to 1/4 of that speed and add some crunch to your guitar". Cancer Girl was born. Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album - right here! Preview and Purchase Six O'Clock Saints CDs Six O'Clock Saints MP3 Downloads |
