New Formed (polymer) – Audition Jams

After the demise of Polymer we’ve been getting a few people in to come jam to hopefully find a few more players.. Had some hits, and some misses, but that’s to be expected I guess.. The two here were the most fun and slotted in the best.. Both at separate jams. It’s not a band lineup or anything – just a bunch of people trying to make music on the first meet.. Rough and tumble – and good times!

Vocal – Kim – Shifted Blues Jam


Vocal – Kim – Break Me


Guitarist – Steve Shogren – Raw Jam

    Shit yes, absolutely 'feelin' that shifted blues jam there Brad,.. that's the way the band should go in my meager useless opinion. Ya'll let the instruments breathe, and subsequently the singer was allowed to breathe aswell,..and done it, did denis. Cold suction sound + rubbing hands together like an eskimo, prosperity Brad, pure prosperity.

    no….no….no….yes! hahah this is a cool sound, sounds like a fun jam….laif on bass? if so is settling in nicely on the first trak with the drummer….first track is cool bananas, lol, ok so the kim tracks are cool sounding, she sounds so comfortable, brad i fear you going to have to loose some of the fuzz pedal effect/distortion, i think this would sound much cooler without the cheesy sounding 90's distortion crashing the party, i'm family sure jack has mentioned this before, and i'm re-enforcing that same vision, it just sounds too, hmmm, done before? i mean a lot of stuff has been done before, but would like a new twist on the sound you guys are getting, solid, keep it coming

    third track , again sounds made up on the spot, vocalist is amazingly comfortable, love the fact the drums and bass are setting the melody, but then brad!!!!!!!the distortion!!!!!!!!no….no……no!!!!!, lol, turned it into a cheap cheap fest, but you back off so i regain faith, vocalist staying cool the whole way….my only fear with the vocalist is the melody lines are/could be awfully familiar, as in be careful, lol, but like the ambiance, sound of jam room and people creating on the fly…..overall give me more….!

    Poor Brad lol,.. he really wants it,… but he's not allowed to start the ignition,.. for him, it may be like floating on a surfboard, watching pipeline, after pipeline sweep past,….. maybe…………just one…………just one…… I'll just sneek one in….

    Awww Brad,.. if you can't keep it in,… just let the pick grow like Wolverine's claws, stomp the foot down and let it fucking rip!,…you need recreation, if you drown her out well,.. …. I mean,… you have feelings too!,… and the song hyms,.. "What about Brad,…………it isn't fare" …. (the Non Shannon Noll version)..

    haha.. I remember that frankly annoying Shannon Noll guy now.. Had almost managed to erase that memory and I would have been better for it.. ah well.. lol.. anyways..

    We're still trying to figure out what we want to sound like so yeah, i just pipe up sometimes to see what Kim can bounce back.. Dont want to be a "duet" by any means.. but i'd like to learn how to sing backup and harmonies properly.. this could be a good opportunity.. I agree my part in "Break Me" doesnt really fit – it's just bashed in there at the moment.. but when making it up it can never hurt to try.. lol..

    Kim sounds pretty nervous..I would be too with brad around..
    Hey brad I sometimes feel like you should let go a bit more with the singing…It sometimes sounds like your in a singing character. Kim seemed to get better with time. Its a very clean well recorded jam .
