Some Kind Of Monster<\/a> video and go to bed with this idea to develop.<\/p>\nWe re-listened to the riff in the morning and decided it’s worth keeping.\u00a0 Plus we kept reminding ourselves of the goal of quickly bringing a song together.\u00a0 We had the framework of a vocal melody and a verse-and-a-half of lyrics.\u00a0 So while the tracks were being recorded in one room, lyrics were being written in another room.\u00a0 I say “another room”, but it was from the dining room to the living room so it’s a technicality.\u00a0 Not knowing exactly how the structure was going to go, about six verses were written with each on a separate page, so the final order could be decided on the fly.\u00a0 And of course each page had a “ye-ah” or “womahn” reference from Metallica’s influence.\u00a0 We ended up using about half the lyric sheets, with no Metallica references recorded (not even for out-takes).<\/p>\n
