Grey album demos & Tribute album

[snowdroplets]

does anyone have the grey album demos? I think its about 50 mins in duration...
I have the re-issue of the grey album that came with bonus tracks... but im not sure
if the demos that floated around are all contained in the grey album reissue.

also, does anyone have the compilation tribute album..I think its spanish bands doing EATB songs.. titled "playing the game" something like that...

would appreciate it if anyone can upload.. thanks

Those demos always make me sad - I think the grey album coulda been so much more.

Frank, you just got out of prison. And so close to Halloween. You got the sign up warning kids away, right?

I agree...it could have been a coiled, fizzing rock and roll masterpiece. Just shows you what happens if you let the record company get involved (lots of piano and over production).

Having said that...its not that bad, its better than pretty much everything post Evergreen. The b sides from that era are all fantastic.

you know I have been listening to it a lot lately

some iffy tracks but some belters also -- they could have lost a few tracks and that would have made it more punchy ..

I am listening more to the lyrics also and they are excellent

Lost and Found has some super ones

I was standing in a graveyard
Under silver studded skies
In a forest burning ashes
On the bonfires of our lives

All the ghosts have gathered 'round me
Come to tell me of a change
In the darkness that surrounds me
I am falling down again

She will tell you her cathedral
Has no windows and no doors
And you know she doesn't need you
And that's why you want her more


I was counting all the tombstones
Of the buried boys and girls
As the wind blew in like ice
And froze this cemetery world
