Gravity Demos Appreciation Thread
A/B/G/Drop A sounds like a rock version of the Hummer outro
Lucky Lad sounds like a Foo Fighters song from their first record Jimmy's cymbal roll technique in the beginning of Dizzle is really cool The guitar part around 20 seconds in to Weeping Willowly is really nice SP was effortlessly good around this time |

Yeah but it's a different recording to the one that's on Pastichio Medley, which is way better.

Also Star Song is amazing but I don't think it was a Gravity Demo.

There's some absolute gold on the Gravity Demos. It'd be kinda interesting to know what they would have been like with lyrics.
Rings (simple but beautiful) The Groover Jackboot Germans In Leather Pants Beautiful One (I almost got into a fight with a neighbour because I was playing this over and over when I first heard it ) |

Rings is a surprising discovery for me. Kind of an Explosions in the Sky precursor. Really cool eastern melody

Yeah those demos were pretty dope, a lot of good potential for great songs and quite a few followed up upon versions. Funny how quite a few amazing b-sides were demoed here but never got tho shine on a proper album, ah well.
I think Blast and Dizzle are probably my favorite tunes here; Speed is also pretty good. Damn, now I think I'm gonna have to listen to it in full now. |

No Escape (Weeping Willowly) has one of Jimmy's finest drum moments, I always think. Also, the song has a dreamy vibe to it
