it's sad, really, this obsession.
of listening to them and knowing.
no way. how? and then hours spent telling yourself, "well, write better songs, learn to play them well and record them well and do all of this a lot at a high level of proficiency for several years."
and despite trying your best to be yourself, you still secretly want everything you record to sound like 'rubber soul'. there is no escape.
but with every listen, they unlock a little bit more of the universe for me and lots of other people everyday.
four guys playing instruments and singing together. it's baffling.
it's because of this sound they got.
this artful sound that you can create if you really, really try.
so we all really try.
there is something you need to know first
