Hello everyone,
The Royal Aces would certainly welcome any comments from Surf Nation regarding our new original, "The Spy". For our upcoming album, we are purposely aiming for a raw, low-tech, basement party sound, and we are hoping that this song captures that feel.

Thanks for any input - it's in the list of songs on our site at www.myspace.com/theroyalaces

The progressions throughout this tune took me slightly by surprise, it has a kind of swell to the sound too. Hope that makes sense. I like The Spy very much.

Nice work!

First songs intro was a little slow imho, but once it got started I liked it.

"The Spy" is most cool!

I liked Shake Some Evil the most. Something about a tall redhead in a slinky dress on the arm of the Villain. She totally steals the scene as they enter the club, and has she eyes for the Hero.

There's your music video pitch.

Planish, Just in case you didn't know it,but Shake Some Evil is a tune from your fellow Canadian's Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet. A video for a song should probably be more suited for a original from the band.
