Hello Lemmings!

I have made a punk rock album, and it’s finally out! If you like hard, loud, anti-authoritarian music made with open-source tools, then look no further! You’ve found it, your journey is over! Seriously, stop looking, it’s just silly now…

Head on over to bandwagon.fm/@jimmyhalliday to hear it now for free! If you really like it, and just have to listen to it all the time, even when you’ve ventured beyond the veil and suddenly found yourself without reception, click on one of the links and buy a copy! If you’re one of those streaming types, who would like to hear this on Spotify or the like, that’s coming soon!

Be the envy of your friends, the toast of the town, and the apple of my eye ❤️ Check it out today!

Dude this is rad! Got me dancing this morning. I’m only a few songs in. I don’t see a way to buy a copy…but I’d like to. Are you playing all the instruments? What DAW or tools did you use to record?

  Hey thanks! I’m glad you’re enjoying it! If you wanna buy a copy, there’s a Bandcamp link just under the profile picture (on the main profile page, rather than the album page).
  
  Yes, I am playing all the instruments! Except for drums, I used Hydrogen for that. I have a PreSonus interface, and I used Ardour for my DAW, with mostly LSP, Calf, and Ardour community plugins. The only two non-FOSS plugins I used were Graillon for some light auto tune and Acon Digital Multiply, which is basically just a chorus, both on the vocal tracks because I am not a good singer lol, but they’re both “free” as in “free beer”.
  
  Thanks for listening!

    Sweet, I just bought a copy :D
    
    On my second listen through now. Hard to pick a favorite song!
    
    Appreciate the breakdown of the tools. I haven’t heard of Ardour before but will have to check it out now. I’m getting more into FOSS stuff lately. I currently use a free copy of Live lite that came with my focusrite DI.
    
    Vocals turned out great btw. Super impressed by folks that are multi instrumentalists.
    
    If you don’t mind me asking - What is your approach to recording all the parts? Like do you start with the drums and then listen to that while you record the guitar and then do vocals…or? And do you ever plan to play this live? Would be hella fun to hear this live.
