Heavy Metal Valentine (ft Alex Klages)

Yes, we know it is no longer Valentine's Day, but on that day, when the world turns bright pink and we all get our special hearts as profile pictures, a particularly 'Hollow' FAWMer was not pleased. He was very unhappy and was NOT on our team.

That's ok, because he is on OUR team, because FAWM is our team! Here at FAWM, we STILL love him and wanted to send him a special Valentine to let him know. <3

I got out my Peavey Bandit amp for one of the guitar tracks, because duh... 80's!!, but also used the Hudsonics amp, made by @dragondreams. I had SO much fun making this music and had SO much fun mixing in Alex's awesome vocals that completely fit in.

Oh, and I am not one to do guitar solos, especially hair metal shredding solos, but I added a uni-vibe pedal for some swagger and though it only has about 5 actual notes it plays a WHOLE LOT of them with some very fast (read: messy) picking, haha. At least my right hand was metal, even if my fretting fingers were not.

Metalfoot: *screams into the mic* WOOOO!
YEAH!!!

OK, got that out of my system. This song is for all the people who ask "but you call yourself Metalfoot, how come you never do any metal?" So this is a lovely little bit of pop/glam/hair metal to point them to. I wrote the lyrics in the motif of most of the hair metal I remember hearing on the radio back in the 80s. I think I mostly succeeded. My intentions were simply and purely to bring the glory of hair metal back to an unsuspecting audience AND to have a reason at long last to buy that neon purple bodysuit and go on world tour. Or something.

Metalfoot and ZeCoop ARE...Glorious Disaster
Glorious Disaster wants YOU to be our HEAVY METAL VALENTINE!!

lyrics

hey there baby you're looking so fine
be my heavy metal valentine
in that lace and leather sublime
be my heavy metal valentine
hey there baby won't you give me a sign
be my heavy metal valentine
I'm still waiting on the line
be my heavy metal valentine

i am no one's employee. i am not on your team
i know what I want I know what I need
give me the mic and let me scream

hey there baby you're looking so fine
be my heavy metal valentine
in that lace and leather sublime
be my heavy metal valentine
hey there baby won't you give me a sign
be my heavy metal valentine
I'm still waiting on the line
be my heavy metal valentine

i am here to fill your needs, i will fulfill all your dreams
i know what you want i know what you need
so come on baby lets go to the extreme

hey there baby you're looking so fine
be my heavy metal valentine
in that lace and leather sublime
be my heavy metal valentine
hey there baby won't you give me a sign
be my heavy metal valentine
I'm still waiting on the line
be my heavy metal valentine

about

ZeCoop Kalamazoo, Michigan

I love playing music and keep learning new instruments. My songs are in a wide range of styles, from indie-rock to surf, to folk to rock to electronic... I never know. I record at home in a studio I put together in a spare room. I work (via the web) with a lot of vocal/lyric collaborators from all over the world.
