The Sickness by Spartan

yes i agree with matt,a very colourful and progressive track, like what youve done with vocals. couldnt keep my feet still with that rythm , vocals are massivley good, love it .....youve got some great skills....

Hey. Thanks a lot for the feedback, it's always good to know what other people think, as it's sometimes difficult to tell yourself. The song was written when I was living in Toronto. It's mostly about the types of people you see in the the clubs, and the almost elitist attitude that's created in those types of atmospheres, until it's painfully clear who's welcome, and who's not.

Although I'm not always the most talkative person, I love to read your messages. There's more to come, so let me know what you think.

Yeah cool - from the lyrics I did catch I figured it must be along those lines. I know exactly what you mean, a lot of the clubs here are the same. Its quite funny actually, often the "beautiful people" frequenting places like that can be seen to degrade into squabbling screaming fighting children as they get more booze soaked ;) I always get a laugh out of it when passing by to go to the rare clubs which are filled with people who go out to have fun (as opposed to posing) and listen/dance to interesting music. Generally I regard those types of people as uncultured ignorant souls, who have totally missed the point about what it means to be alive, and to live life on our Earth.

Well I'd say thats a pretty accurate description ;)

Incredible song..I feel my own works put to shame :D Maybe the only complaint is that I think the build up of the intro will be too long for most people's tastes, although I personally loved it. The more organic guitar parts at the end are great too. I dont know if you meant to but you REALLY captured the guitar sound of Radiohead! Its like the very live sounding radiohead mixed with the very techno sounding radiohead, but your own things too. Reminds me of Fischer Spooner a little too. Really incredible song.

I would buy your album when its done, I hope you can get some play. Its really good, Im always interested in hearing peopels DIY music but this is very good work. That song is like a perfect intro to a CD.

OK! At first I have visited your site and listened to that track "The Sickness". It impressed me so much especially video on the left. I mean the mix when you see and listen... It's really cool track because there's a lot of new modern electronic music but a little bit of unique compositions. This one is unique! I think you've got some rare idea when you start to make this. Well done 10/10
P.S. Sorry for my bad English... It's not my native language.

You know it!

Thanks. Yup, that's me. Not the greatest voice, but I like to think the meaning is more important. Thanks again.

I was listening to this track again at work the other day and started imagining a scene in a movie choreographed to it. Because it has got an awesome intro, with the tension really building up it is perfect for something to explode, and the line "get in the car" conjures up all sorts of thrilling action.
