The Dog Ate My Philosophy Homework

from The Beauty of Destruction by Drowning In Dreams

/

about

When I saw those 'dog ate my philosophy homework' memes back in June last year, I knew I had to use that as a song title! The song itself was kind of hard to write though. Despite being the first song, it was actually the last song I wrote for the album. I knew I wanted a nice slow start, the calm before the storm, but everything I was writing just didn't fit. Then I just started jamming around to an 'E' on a continuous feedback loop, and something clicked. The lead guitar lines came to me pretty much in one go, and I fattened things up by recording it three times, twice with my SG and once with my Tele, all using a little fuzz and an automatic volume swell pedal. The bass is kind of boring on the track though, since its just E for four minutes to create ambience. Left me with cramp in my hand after holding the same note for that long
