GET BENT: Get Yo Swerve On
First post in a while, DAMN!! What is up?? So, if you are a Facebook friend it is no secret that I am the voice of Dead Wrong. I am still trying to play up the anonymity angle, so Mum’s the word on that shit! However, in an attempt to get my shit to POP I have released a single from Dead Wrong’s upcoming album entitled DARKSIDE OF THE GRAVE.
First let me explain the album: DARKSIDE OF THE GRAVE is a blend of old-school gangsta rap and heavy metal, but unlike Limp Biskit it’s not gonna suck (at least not in our opinion). Unlike most rap-rock, it’s not like our songs don’t know if they want to sound more like Rap or Rock…our stuff is different. Our stuff is more like there are some songs that are straight Gangsta Rap, and there are some that are pure Heavy Metal. For instance, our song Nowhere to Hide sounds like something Snoop Dog wrote, but then you take a song like You Can’t Save Me which is so heavy it could fit nicely on a Pantera album! Each one of our songs has a completely different feel. Oddly enough, the album as a whole flows together magnificently (again, just our opinion). There are elements of Hip-Hop, Trip-Hop, Funk, Industrial, Old School, New Wave, Heavy Metal, you name it- just don’t name country! And that is just our music. The lyrics are so dark you’ll think our souls are made of 86% cacao. There was a snippet of a Dead Wrong song on Episode 6. It was from I’m Insane, and that cut is on the album for sure(track 8 if I’m not mistaken). Another interesting selling point of the album is that there’s a lot of Pink Floyd-esque stuff happening between songs. In fact, DARKSIDE OF THE GRAVE is like the Dark Side of the Moon for this generation’s non-pacifist! (also goes by the alias of Songs From The Other Side) It will be out no later than this July…for REAL!
Now allow me to explain our single: GET YO SWERVE ON is a catchy little jingle that comes in with a squeak and goes out with a roar!! You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you just might piss yourself (from laughing). The hook is catchy as hell, with a 1990’s Tone Loc feel. You never would have thought that a song about manhandling some poor hooker could be so much fun! Well, maybe. Anyway, we started this album back in 2008 (the same year that this site began, actually) and gradually the music has overtaken the production of the show. My apologies for that, everyone. I have not forgotten about the show, BELIEVE ME!!! The Get Bent Documentary is still “in production,” but there are a few internal things that need to be sorted out before I can dust the cobwebs off of my video camera. In the meantime don’t hesitate to download the song. (it will help to finance the production of the documentary).
Thanks,
WOZ
The entire album is out now. As of July 25 it is on available for download on Amazon but with 20 songs at $8.99 we’re talking less than 45 cents per song!! Grab it while it’s hot (or at least warm)!!
