New Song "Take It From Me (Mega Man Song)" Now Streaming! Descriptions of 3 New Songs.


Check yourself Krackleheads! Why?! Cause this week we bring you another new song streaming now from E FOR EVERYONE! We're a band that writes about and from the perspective of comic book charaters/nerd culture. So keeping with the balance of the world in that the last song we debuted was about a comic book character, this week we show our love for fellow video game nerds with our song about MEGA MAN..."Take It From Me". As promised we'll also unveil a few more song descriptions from E4E so read on!

TAKE IT FROM ME

There are video games you grew up on, and then there are video games you were RAISED by. For us, that was the 8-bit parent we and 1.5 million other kids who loved it called MEGA MAN 2. For a long time we wanted to write a song about Mega Man but didn't know how we were gonna do it until we wrote the opening riff and had our Eureka moment. See, if we were born in the year 20XX and Dr. Light sent us across 8 levels to kick ass, this is kinda song we would hope to have running though our headphones hooked up to our blaster arm. Just sayin. With shredding solos provided by good friend Patrick Porter, we wanted to create an-in-your-face song worthy and confident of kicking robot ass...not matter what those bastards were made of...

"Born on a table in 20XX, open my eyes and I disconnect...look down to see the future glowing in my hand, an artificial man..."




RING CAPACITY

In July of last year, we released "Ring Capacity" as a way to reach new fans by offering the single as an email-list only exclusive. After the fan response and coverage we received from the track we knew it was a no-brainer to put it on E4E not only because of that, but we just love playing it! The song chronicles a moment in time from the perspective of Green Lantern Hal Jordan after he is attacked in space by Sinestro. The chorus was written by Kyle on a trip to Mexico after he obsessively delved into many GL back issues while trying to be eaten by scorpions (not the band).
When he returned we both sat down and RC came together in 20 minutes. Crazy. Wish it could always be that easy. Hint? ITS NOT.

"I'm flying through the cold of space, it seems I've yet to find my place...I'm guarding 2814, I don't know why it's chosen me..."




HENCHMAN

If you were a professional Henchman, would you have to go interview for a job with the super-villain you were "henching" for? Damn straight you would, and in this song we think we got a pretty accurate portrayal of how that might go. The narrator of "Henchman" is your everyday goon; a guy who is getting older and knows that his skill set though maybe limited to the rest of the world, is pretty bad ass. Fired lasers from a sub? CHECK. Spent a month up on the moon? DONE. In the henching world, your resume is all you have so you can be sure during the course of this song he sells himself to his potential future employer while at the same time letting it me known what his needs are including covered parking and 401K. Even when you're a little bit nuts and work on death ray machines, it's important to know that your family will be able to eat next week. This henchman has his priorities straight, even if his head is a little backwards...

"I'm curious what you pay and I could start today, have faith in what's inside like Cringer turning into Battle Cat...So here I am again and with this leaky pen I summarize my skill set, realize my path in life is set...I'll always be a henchman..."



There you go! That's 3 more track descriptions before next Tuesday's release of E FOR EVERYONE and where we'll debut the names of the final 4 tracks! Remember, you can pre-order E4E now over at www.kirbykracklemusic.com NOW to have it shipped to you to be the first to receive when the album drops March 9th. We hope you're having as much fun hearing about the new songs as we are spilling the beans and sharing what we've been working on for the last six months. Can't wait for EMERALD CITY COMIC CON, and the convention season ahead. Album release next week...WOOT!


Be well all!

Love,

Kyle and Jim

TAKE IT FROM ME
(Mega Man Song)


Born on a table in Two Thousand Double X
Open my eyes and I disconnect
Look down to see the future glowing in my hand
An artificial man

Doc says lets charge you up and get you on your way
Battles ahead no sense to slow this race
Time's running out now I'm an agent of the Light
It's time to start this fight
No man of air will burst my cloud
No man of heat will melt me now
No man of wood will chop me down

And through these obstacles I'll blast
Take it from me, take it from me
I'll be the one to last
Through the final stage
Take it from me, take it from me

Grind my way through and I've created quite a scene
A mix of melted gears and kerosene
I only look ahead to see the final boss
And never weigh the cost
No man of speed will slow me down
No mortar blast can take me out
No water man can make me drown

And through these obstacles I'll blast
Take it from me, take it from me
I'll be the one to last
Through the final stage
Take it from me, take it from me

And when the music's through fading
It won't be too long
Fill my energy tank cuz I gotta stay strong
Through these obstacles I'll blast
Take it from me, take it from me
It's time to start this fight
No man of air will burst my cloud
No man of heat will melt me now
No man of wood will chop me down

And through these obstacles I'll blast
Take it from me, take it from me
I'll be the one to last
Through the final stage
Take it from me, take it from me

And when the music's through fading
It won't be too long
Fill my energy tank cuz I gotta stay strong
And through these obstacles I'll blast
Take it from me, take it from me
