Can someone say amen!

(little voice in the background):  "Amen!"

I totally agree on this point.  The drums during the chorus of Wet
Gravity are absolutely astounding.  Just because of that drum part, Wet
Gravity became my favorite Failure song, that and Heliotropic.  I think
that would be a great way to promote Failure to any drummers that have
yet to see the light.  Just play that song for them and they would be
able to bask in the glory that is Failure!!

On a semi-related note-  Anybody have any hints for recording vocals. 
I'm up to that point in the compilation recordings, but the only problem
is that they sound like poop.  I'm going to try the screen tomorrow maybe
(pantyhose on a bent coathanger to stop all the prominent puhs and s's)
that really doesn't help with the whole "Gee, I'm singing in a closet"
sound though.
