Hypothetically, if I heard the song, I'd say I dig it. Once again, hypothetically, I'd say that it isn't quite there yet, but it definitely has potential.

When looking for the new demo...I looked for most recent.....Is it called "Warning"

Anyways also came across this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIQtTHWlRac

I guess, it's not so secret with it on Youtube anymore.

"Warnings" is the title. (Plural as far as I know)

Yeah, should probably be taken down. Our small community listening is entirely different than any OLP fan out there having it.

Then again, MP3 beats youtube any day.

It was me who uploaded it... I thought the entire OLP fanbase out there should be able to hear it. I added captions for the lyrics as well.

But... I've changed it to "unlisted" for now (only those with the link to it can watch it) and we'll see what Trusty thinks, and what he thinks the band thinks.

No one's mad or anything. I just don't think we should abuse what the band gave a select few people, since they were generous enough to do it. Plus if they aren't pissed at us, it'll be more likely we'll get cool stuff like this in the future.

Truthfully, I don't think the band would care if it was posted. They have always been about just getting the music out there... heck, Raine encourages recording songs and putting them up on YouTube at their shows! That being said, can someone either post the link here or PM it to me? Thanks in advance!

I think what's happening with the demo is exactly what Trusty/the band had intended to happen....

if it wasn't meant to be heard - it would of never been heard

Then all is well lol. Just wanted to make sure they were cool about it before we started openly sharing it.

ok. i decided i really like it.

Heavy Alibi · Post by **Heavy Alibi** » 6/11/2011, 2:36 pm

I love the clip too, but I wish Raine would soften his vocals and make them a bit more natural-flowing, atmospheric and emotionally invested during the verses and the bridge. I know this is probably just a rough vocal, but I really want to be blown away by Raine's vocals again.

Maybe if we had a naveed/gravity tour, he'll bring some super raw vocals again

RileyLewis · Post by **RileyLewis** » 6/11/2011, 7:06 pm

First, I love the demo clip. I love that they are using more minor chords. And this clip sounds very very SM-ish. Also Radiohead-esque.

Second, I like this clip, and it works here, but Raine needs to get some more emotion into the verses again! Just listen to anything from Naveed or Clumsy and compare to now. Yeah, the style is different, but just listen to how much raw emotion was in his voice before. Now it gets filtered out in some pursuit of smooth perfection. For this song, it works. But for most, I'd rather feel what he is saying, not just hear it.

MindsOnLoan · Post by **MindsOnLoan** » 6/11/2011, 7:36 pm

It's a demo. Not the final... So yeah, obviously I hope he has the passionate vocals in the final, but I don't think it's fair to call out a demo on it.

ivewaited · Post by **ivewaited** » 6/12/2011, 3:14 am

i'm listening to the performance of denied from 6-16-1995 and there is so much feeling in raine's voice and just something really special brewing from him. i switched to above from the spiritual machines show @ the royal theatre.. he sounded bored and unconvinced.. maybe he's tired out now-a-days and has said everything he's wanted to now and he's like "uhh".

i don't know.
hopefully he can channel some old raine into the new stuff.

Is that the Molson Amphitheatre performance? If so, that is one of my favorite versions of Denied when he goes a capella for the 2nd verse and then the band just rocks out for the rest of the song. So much passion.

Heavy Alibi · Post by **Heavy Alibi** » 6/12/2011, 7:21 am

Yeah those were amazing performances. There's a video from 1997 of them doing Let You Down as well.... it was epic, so much energy, they blew it out of the damn park.
