Thus before I moved out of Larry, Kansas (or Lawrence for you technical bastards) I compiled my third shit bomb. Embracing Fate III. I really had to pull songs out of my ass to make this one work. I didn't have hardly anything and when I decided I was going to take what I had and make it EmFateIII, I really had to hunt some old stuff down to find something that would work to fill out the 10 song requirement. One song that I really wanted to put on here, My Destiny, couldn't make it because it sounded too much like a Blink 182 track. I was originally going to remix/remaster Whore To Culture and put it on here but it just didn't seem appropriate. I also was considering Theme Of The Taskmasters, but being as Whore and Theme were both already in the Unreleased Tracks section of the site, it just made more sense to omit them. In their place I ended up finding these three really old instrumental test pieces I did and though I couldn't remix them (the recording files were lost long ago) I did manage to remaster them and they fit well enough. The quality of this album is probably the worst out of the EmFate series, but the song are still probably a bit better than the original EmFate album. Let's discuss the tracks a bit. De Sent - Originally this was going to be a new band in The 'Bands' Series. The quality was just awful though and I ended up scrapping the whole project. This song came out moderately okay though after some remixing and when the time came, I ended up throwing it on this album anyway. Follow The Dead - This was going to be the last song I wrote before I moved back to Oklahoma but it ended up being one of three final songs before moving. I really liked the music in this one and it had a good chance at being a better song, but time constraints had me rush it to make it onto this album. The lyrics are pointless and the vocals are dreadful. Two - The name of this was originally "02", but I thought the word fit better for albums. This song, One, and Three were all meant to be examples I was going to use to show a friend of mine how easy it would be to start an easy improvisational band together. The original recording files were lost awhile back but the song was still mixed down well enough to go on this album with all the other crap on here. House - This song was made for Vince Doherty but he rejected it and opted to use two other beats I made for him. This was just going to rot in files on my PC until I decided to just throw some random lyrics on it and put it on EmFateIII. Verse Us had the same fate. Domination - I really liked the Domination tracks from the other EmFate albums and I really wanted to keep that tradition alive. So this song's name was changed from "Driven Metal - Concept" to Domination to keep it going. The idea behind Driven Metal is that every instrument plays something different. This is a prototype of that style. Three - Same thing as Two. Just meant to be an example but I was out of songs to choose from and this one popped up and said "Choose me!". Verse Us - This song was made to be used as a "beat" for Vince Doherty. Its name is similar to track 7 from EmFateII (Versus) for this exact reason. This one was part of the same group that House came from. Lighthearted Aggression - It may be blasphemous, but this song is actually about a certain heavy metal group that we've all known and loved since the 80's. Really this song goes out to all the heavy metal bands that have started sucking in their later years. It's time to move on guys and let someone else step up and take the reigns. Like me. One - Again, this song was grouped with songs Two and Three as mentioned above. Nothing special about it except that it is as old as most of the tracks from The Nightmare Battles. Weapon Crisis - I always put the most offensive songs on track 10 for the EmFate series. This song is no different because honestly it's just cursing and randomocity all over the place. The music is pretty cool though, and you can't understand the words so it doesn't make much of a difference really. Like De Sent this was meant to be a fake band but it fell apart from the lack of quality. Hard to live up to Taking Out Anger apparently. The lyrics aren't supposed to be understandable by the way. That's how the band was supposed to be throughout the whole album. And that is Embracing Fate III. |
