Time to revisit another song from our upcoming album. Here’s the mp3 (click to play/right-click and “Save Taget As…” to download):

This is Pseudonym, a slower acoustic song with heavy bits here and there. It’s a pretty complete arrangement, with only the final vocals missing. (Though, of course, please forgive the non-existent production values at this stage.) This is how it sounded last time we uploaded a demo:

As you can tell, there were virtually no guitars on the previous version (apart from the bass), and although it sounded rather pleasant and mellow as it was (in fact, better than I remembered!), hopefully we’ve improved it into a more well-rounded song. Your comments, criticisms and suggestions are all welcome, as always.

Meanwhile, here are some older demo mp3s, in case you’ve missed out:
