... lacrimae sanguis animae sunt ...

Some years ago my friend Luh introduced me to Portishead songs, up till then an unknown style of music for me. In fact they are really different from any other bands and musicians I'm used to listening to. But I enjoyed them. I've got to admit I don't know much about, music and history either. They are from in England (that's a good point that may have contributed for me to like their music, even not aware of it).

The very first song of theirs I listened to was Roads, and I personally guess they don't have any better one. It's so soft, quiet, soulful. Well, the very kind of song that I love. So, I decided to record a cover version of it.

Please, consider this is a home recording, and I haven't got all appropriate equipment. For those are interested in, I used a studio software to mix everything. There were 8 channels: lead vocal, backing vocal, acoustic guitar, acoustic guitar with synthesizer, solo electric guitar, electric guitar with wah effect, bass, and a virtual drum machine. Everything was equalised and mixed up, and the result you get in the link below. I hope you enjoy it.
