Hi guys,
that's a really cool one - a great listen and also a exciting watch. A marvellous song, very well realized and that brilliant video as cream topping - awesome.
Take care,
Stefan

Hey guys, looks like you’ve done it again. A really cool sound to this perfect for Robert’s vocal and lyrics. There is some fine playing from Scott and Ray brings in some nice textures along with some solid backing. The video was much enjoyed. I liked seeing the band in action, Tom

Guys, this is GREAT!! First of all, really enjoyed the video seeing you three in action. Having done exactly one Blue Attitude performance video, I know how much work it trying to remember what it is you played on the recording. Nice visual FX, Ray, very cool. And man, just an excellent song too! You three have something special going on with this project, more please  Thanks Dave The video was a little a suprise when Ray suggested it. Glad you liked it SL
Loved seeing you all play in the video - excellent work.
Enjoyed the song and the the obvious work involved by all.
Engaging stuff.
Peter Thanks Peter Glad you liked the song

Great production guys!
Video is well done and compelling.
I hate to splash cold water on the parade but..........
I can't understand a single verse in the vocals.

Hi Scott, Robert and Ray,
About the video, at first I thought I saw Ray playing lefthanded, but later on righthanded and with multiple guitartypes. What are you; left or righthanded, Ray? I ask this because I am lefthanded and it is considered to be a handicap. Although normally 'lefties' are more creative...
Enjoyable song and video!
Hans Thanks Hans, I understand you'll be cloning yourself soon to repair light bulbs across the nation...many Hans make light work! Scott is right handed but I flipped some video parts to suit the frame & green screen. I'm right handed as well but don't see anything "sinister" in lefties. Cackyhanded folk are often creative, as are the ambidextrous and the dexterous. A rose smells as sweet fertilized with manure after all.
Cheers

Thanks Moto, A splash of cold water is refreshing. The level of the vocals & the subsequent intelligibility of the lyrics was ticked by all three...it's one of those "pull out the album cover" songs.

A smooth trip back to the 60's ... at least for Bud as Janice was still a child  So Bud's first thoughts were of a beat poet's lyric that got melodized and put to a psychedelic arrangement. Of course this does differ from a lot of the psychedelia of the time in that it is melodic, doesn't meander and is tightly arranged and mixed to the extent that even sans a background in the genre one is easily engaged. It's most cool to see the fine guitar, bass and vocal performances on the video. As one lefty to another, cool soloing Scott. Not to imply that I'm a guitar player The mix is perfecto on the monitors. And, Ray, although you alluded to how easy it was to create video we suspect a fair amount of thought and planning went into the process. Well done by all indeed! J&B

Spirit Level jumped to a new level.
Can not capture the style of the song. I would say psychedelic space
rock. Close? Sounds classy, yet I can not find direct resemblance to anything I've heard.
I feel we are taking a lot of things for granted. Imagine if someone would of told you 25-30 years ago, that you will be making music with people you do not know personally, loooong miles apart..? Very cool experimental tune and a musical connection/collaboration. Twisty lyrics, and all that soundscape team created! Neat video too! Nice trip. Thank you for sharing.
Misha. Thank you Misha for the awesome comments. I agree with doing these collabs with different people from around the world. It has definitely kept making music fresh and lots of fun. So glad you liked the song Sounds really cool. Reminds me of Tom Verlaine and Television. Remember them? I have not heard of the Tom Verlaine and Television. I watched a couple of youtube videos. Very cool dark music. Thanks for checking out the song so glad you liked it

I'm a long time fan of Television & Tom's as well as Richard Lloyd's solo work. I have the three TV studio albums and the live one plus most of Tom's solo stuff and a couple of Richard's. Dark, tense and brittle music that's also hypnotic, tense and thrilling. I didn't see them when they toured Australia about five years ago as Richard had quite...his playing and personality are too much a part of the band for me to have seen them without him. It's a lovely comparison based on Scott's fluid playing more than anything.
Cheers

J&B Thanks Janice & Bud, It was a fun project that really went through the mincer during development...ideas left n right some stuck and some slid but the glue, as always, is melody and Robert's vocal one aligned with Scott's guitar ones to string me along very happily. It's not often that I get to be part of a song that has such a long yet gripping middle section.
Cheers

Nice work guys. Takes me back to my early rock influences like Strawberry Alarm Clock. I would like to hear the vocals a bit more on top but otherwise a great production.

Misha. Misha spoke truth. So I ride his coattails. A great sound! Everyone does there part - superbly. Scott's guitar works wonders. I always enjoy Robert's vocal on these type songs. Ray's magic... And... Bahndi Nahbox - HAHAHA! Cool video. Awesome band. fj Thanks Floyd for the awesome comments. I too got a kick out of Rays name of the very versatile musician Bahndi Nahbox. Never complains always there when you need them. :-)

Great sound, gentlemen. I usually prefer to clearly hear the lyrics, but in this case having them float around a little in the mix suited the spacey feeling of the song. Enjoyed the video, too. Very well done, all.
Regards,
Leon

Hello Gentlemen ...
Well, everything I was thinking has pretty much been said already. Great see all of you in action! Everyone's part sounds as though it was written just for him ... a great collab. Robert has such a unique and wonderful voice, Ray you look a little stoic (ha!) but sound great, and Scott you play the heck out of those 6-string things!
Intriguing lyric and a really nice set of backing tracks behind the live efforts. Really, really good!
Wishing all of you the very best. Be safe ...
Alan

Chose the video...I mean, why not? Psychedelia meets pessimism. Why not? Splendid band, mix, play, lyric and package. Nicely done, Gentlemen.
