  First off, this isn't really a serious post...  I've no real desire to be in the archives.

Here is a mini-EP I recorded in early 2004...  about a month after I got my first guitar.

The Iridescent Chatons (s/t)



1)  In Life, In Death:
   http://aaron.thebackground.org/01-decision.mp3 - a) The Decision -- The Sentence
   http://aaron.thebackground.org/02-sunsets.mp3 - b) Sunsets Burn Into Nightskies
   http://aaron.thebackground.org/03-lament.mp3 - c) Lament Of The Defenestrated
2)  http://aaron.thebackground.org/04-danceofchatonnes.mp3 - The Dance Of The Chatonnes

All songs written and arranged by Aaron Jennings.  Blame him.
Guitar on In Life, In Death suite:  Aaron Jennings
Keyboards on Sunsets Burn Into Nightskies:  Aaron Jennings
Keyboards/drum programming on The Dance Of The Chatonnes:  Aaron Jennings
Keyboard generously lended by "The General"
Recorded February 2004 at Glowing Kitten Studios
Mixed/engineered by Aaron Jennings.  Blame him.

Any feedback on how awful this is?    Again, I'm just takin' the piss...  this not only does not represent a plea to be in the archives, but it's not even the my best material...  it's from a few weeks of self-taught guitar.

Hell yeah. You're better than Genesis, Yes, Floyd, ELP and all those other wannabes combined!

When I read the topic I thought you meant the "I" EP by Meshuggah  .

dude, if we add Man Overboard, we're going to have to add Velvetclown, Cyggie-poo, Snow Dog MWH, fannydangle and everyone else that posts in "mariah carey" because that thread is the most prog of all.

I am WAY more prog than Manoverboard.

I'm prog, though, right?    Keyboards, instrumentals, strange structures, experimentation...

Wow I would say You're Music is damn Great, brutal, progressive and very... ehm... profesional... In Fact... It sounds like Opeth!... Ow... Its just The new Opeth album playing in my winamp.. darn...

EDIT: No, wait, this aqtually sound like a opener to an opeth song! Ad Growls and a death-metal blast for another minute after the 1st part and You can send that to Akerfeld! (maybe it'll be on the Ghost Reveries Special Edition )

The whole Suite is very dark and progressive... It coulde've easily be as a bonus on the Damnation CD.. So don't wait! Add death metal elements and send it to Akerfeld! Or leave the suite as it is and send it to Anathema or someone....

Ow, And by the way, I see You are a great multiinstrumentalist!!!! Your guitar is far more emotional then any prog players and Your Keyboard playing is far more technical then Jordan Rudess's... Your drumming are far more complicated then Pert or Portnoys... Keep up the Good (or GOD, maybe?) Work!!!!

These Songs show the great multiinstrumental tallent of the man known only as ManOverboard...!!!!!!!! ***** - a masterpiece!!!!

Well it's not that bad. I keep on thinking that your guitar is out of tune for some reason or the song keeps on changing key or something.

Not bad..I'd say

Though I think it would be a great idea if we added a section on the progarchives site for unsigned up-and-coming musicians on this site. Then we could have a section for the musicians on this forum to post their music.

I'm in awe.  This album has changed my life.  You're too good to be included on the archives, we need to make a new site called aaronarchives.com devoted entirely to this release.

I would like to add that Aaron is in fact a CAT ... yes, a CAT. I have inside information on that. If you look very closely at the picture aaron-the-cat  posted above you will see a picture of aforementioned cat (with cardboard angel wings) being abused  by a steve-hackett impersonator. Perhaps this explains the growling death-metal grunts ...  

Sorry Aaron ... your cover is blown ... now time for some cat bickies ....

I made a thread about that, about the unsigned section, but no-one answered it.

 

Anyway, good tracks.
