10 Albums: The Soundtrack of Your Life

Season 3 is in the bag! ..Onto Season 4!!

This is just a quick episode based on some song lyrics that have been misinterpreted or mis-heard, such as Jimi Hendrix in 'Purple Haze' singing "Scuze me while I kiss this guy".

I am notorious for butchering lyrics...how are you with this?? I have some friends that are always just bang-on with lyrics - and they are always really happy to point out to me the real lyrics 😂

I visited www.kissthisguy.com for some references. 👀

...any funny lyrical misinterpretations on your end? Send them our way!

I was on Nick Hail's podcast 'Enter the Muse' (https://www.facebook.com/enterthemuseofficial/) to promote my bands most recent release!

Nick is from South Africa, he does a great show that covers MMA to Film to ..pretty much anything that is interesting. It is a really cool show - you can find it on all the usual podcasting platforms.

We discuss the album, of course, but also venture into pop culture, some music history and even talk some Quentin Tarantino and Connor McGregor - just for good measure!

Thanks Nick!

____________________________________________

Ground Level Falcons are back with their 5th LP, ‘Skyline’.
Release date : September 22nd, 2021.

This album was the bands most challenging to release, due to the start/stop nature of the pandemic of the past 18 months.
Despite the lockdowns and some lengthy gaps in practicing - the band put together, what they all believe to be, their strongest effort to date!

The GLF camp is back to a full lineup : bassist Greg Kolodychuk and lead guitarist/keyboardist Adrian Armitage have both returned from a 3 and a 4 year absence, respectively.
The last album both Greg and Adrian were a part of was 2017s ‘The New Wilderness’.

Backing vocalist, Olivia Ostrom, appears on all the songs this time around - she had made her debut on 2019s ‘Good Living Foundation’ , appearing on the last 2 songs of that album.

This album marks the 10-Year-Anniversary for the band, as well.
The band started out in the fall of 2011.

‘Skyline’ is the bands first self-produced album to date; frontman Matt Gardiner took on the engineering & mixing.
The band used the analog online mastering service ARIA Mastering for the 2nd straight release.

The album is a wonderful blend of 60s/70s and grunge era music.



ABOUT THE ALBUM :

‘Skyline’ is actually the prequel to 2019s ‘Good Living Foundation’ , story-line wise.

‘Skyline’ takes place on the Skyline Trail - which is located in Jasper, Alberta, Canada. The protagonist (Trent Hemingway) has recently broken up with his girlfriend (Amy) and has taken to the Skyline Hike to clear his head.

Skyline Trail is a 27mile hike that has 5 campsites throughout to break up the hike.

Each song represents a different stops on the hike - which adds up to 7 stops when you include the starting and finishing points.

Each song also represents a different stage of the “7 Stages of Recovery*” as it relates to dealing with the end of this relationship.

As the songs take on the different stages of recovery - the album, itself, plays quite beautifully as a story.

Olivia’s parts are varied from sparse & hauntingly, being placed in the background, to straight-up duets with Matt, depending on what part of the story is being told.



7 Songs & Stages :
1 - ‘The Human Trigger’ = Shock & Denial
2 - ‘Your Face Gives It Away’ = Pain & Guilt
3 - ‘Blood Memory’ = Anger & Bargaining
4 - ‘DisLocation’ = Depression
5 - ‘Strawberry Moon’ = The Upward Turn
6 - ‘Running Like a River’ = Reconstruction
7 - ‘Skyline’ = Acceptance & Hope
