New Demo - My Cat Hates My Guts

What's up, folks? Megumi has written a new tune, My Cat Hates My Guts, and we did a demo of it. It's her homage to Shonen Knife.

We're using a PRS Santana SE and a Squier Affinity Telecaster on it going into a Caline Pure Sky pedal and then into the computer (Presonus Studio One).

The amp sim VST we are using is bx_bassdude.

For drums, we are migrating from audio drum loops to using Session Drummer (which we have from the days I used to run Cakewalk Sonar). Session Drummer is a VST so we can use it in any program that uses VSTs. The loaded kit a the Led Zep kit, and the drum patterns are from Groove Monkey (Rock Essentials). It's a lot more flexible this way since we can adjust the individual hits, and we think the Led Zep kit sounds pretty good!





My Cat Hates My Guts
The 3Represents

Verse1

D                            A
My cat, she hates my guts
When I sleep she bites my butt
She pissed my clothes and made them stink
Then took a dump in the kitchen sink

Chorus

G                    A           D
But I'll always love my cat
She's really good at killing rats
The rules of home are understood
I give her food and it's all good

Bridge
Em       G          A    D     A   D

People always tell me to get a dog
and I always tell them to get a cat

F#      Em      B#m        GM7
I'm sorry, I don't trust animals who eat their own poop

Verse 2

My cat, she hates my guts
When she found me, I was down on my luck
I know she always has my back
I can show you where her claws left tracks

Chorus

G                    A           D
But I'll always love my cat
She's really good at killing rats
The rules of home are understood
I give her food and it's all good
