My own little black book

My band is finally starting to write our own tunes (I have a lead guitarist who has recently blown me away with his improvisational skills, and a rhythm guitarist who was recently blown me away with his keyboard skills...Grade XII Conservatory, indeed, heh.) But anyway, we've got a sound that's like a modern version of early Waters-era Floyd (ie. 70-73, thereabouts); it's heavy, but we also have a very lush and full sound, and despite being "heavy" most of our songs are pretty down-tempo, and I do more than just shouting and swearing as seems to be the style for heavy bands... Since our new idea to do the whole "original material" thing, we've cut our covers list down to Gordon Lightfoot's "If You Could Read My Mind" (you've never heard a '70s folk song rock so hard :grin: ), "Comfortably Numb" and Zeppelin's "Heartbreaker"...most of our original stuff came out of those covers, just jamming afterwards in the same key. But, I'm babbling, so I'll try and get to a point sometime. First off, we're searching for a name. We haven't yet come up with something that we've stuck with for more than, oh, three days :grin: . Also, I'm working on a song called "Etiam, Mi Domine". That's Latin for "Yes, My Lord" and it's turning out fairly well...anyone want to see lyrics when it's done? (If not, I understand... :grin: )
