Jay-Z DOA (death of autotune)
Everybody needs to listen to each and every lyric this man is speakin! The master from the last decade has throwin down something that could help all us real musicians, MC’s, DJ’s, artists, producers and engineers! Power to the REAL ones! This is death of autotune, MOMENT OF SILIENCE!
Only rapper to re write history without a pen!
No ID on a track let the story begin!
this anti autotune, death of the ringtone
this ain’t for itunes, this aint for sing-alongs
this is sinatra @ the opera, bring a blonde
preferelby with a fat ass who can sing a song, wrong
this aint politically correct, this might offend my political corrects
my raps dont have melodies,
this should make jackers wan go and commit felonies
get your chain tookin, i may do it myself im so brooklin,
I know we facing a recession,
but the music y’all makin gon make it the great depression
or your lack of agression, pull your skirt back down, throw a set and then
you know its just violent, this death of auto tune, moment of silence
This aint a number one record, this is practically assault with a deadly weapon
i made this just for flex and, just see i want people to feel threatened,
stop your blood clot cryin, the kid, the dog, everybody dyin, no lyin!
you boys jeans to tight, your, colours to bright, your voice to light!
I might whip black 4 years straight, i might bring back versace shades,
This aint for Z 100, yay told me to kill yall, to keep it one hunning!
This is for hot non seven
for cali who we the best in, yeah this just violent, this is death of auto tune moment of silence!

IndieLove Radio!
So if you had a chance to listen to the set, it was chilled out, and different then you have heard form us over the last 6-8 months. Couple acoustic guitars, a bass, and the smallest kit imaginable amount to our Live @ IndieLove Radio Sessions. The radio station will be playing the songs continually, and we will have some videos of the interview and set up here on the blog in a couple weeks.
We have also (if you haven’t heard) posted our two latest recordings for a free download, please head to the downloads section to hear the songs, and have a copy for free if you feel the need. One thing the band really likes is constructive criticism, good and bad feedback that will help us get better and take it to a whole new level! If you could want to help the band out in big ways you can do any of the following for us as a general favour.
1. Call or Email Indie Love Radio and request an Earthtone song! All the time, anytime!
2. Go to OurStage.com and vote for our songs in the competitions, we need help with votes
3. Tell a friend about us. We are really looking to expand our fan base, if you could send a note out on your facebook or myspace or invite them to become fans, OR direct them to the blog here, we would be GREATLY APPRECIATIVE!
Stay tuned for some big news from the band later this week. We have some information that may be a surprise to some of you, and for others, not so much of a surprise! I also wanted to mention once again, we would love feedback at our emails or on here, or Facebook, doesnt matter really. If you would like to see us do a cover of a certain song, like us to send you any information, or you just wanna know what the lyrics mean in a song don’t hesitate to contact us, lets here what you have to say!
Special thanks to Rob Spence for having us on his show, and Steph from IndieStar Promotions for hookin it up!
New Recordings Coming July 14th!
If you haven’t had a chance to hear some of the latest material at our latest shows, you might wanna tune into IndieLove Radio on Tuesday July 14th. You can tune in from anywhere around the world @ www.indielove.ca. We will be performing a small acoustic set, debuting some new recordings, and having an interview with Rob Spence, all during his show 9pm-12am est. The very same day we will have 2 new songs put up on our myspace, and shortly after available for free download here on our blog. If you tune in to the Rob Spence Show on July 14th the acoustic set will be quite different then you have heard from earthtone in the recent months. We are excited to bring back the acoustic guitars and play these songs with a different feel. Make sure you tell all your friends to tune in to the show on July 14th wherever they are, and send some emails and feedback on the set and new material please. We are always looking to hear some constructive criticism and improve on our playing. Make sure you check out our show/tours section for all our summer time shows. Hope to see you soon. PS special thanks to MikeJoe for more photos, check his link on the side bar for all of his earthtone photos.

A serious Issue…
I would love for all of you to take the time and watch this video, it will clarify how the government could easily take away your rights and freedoms of choice and the “Rule of Law” (google it). I work in the Natural Health Products industry, and slowly the government is taking away products that my company manufactures and sells in the states, but seem to be illegal to sell or recommend here in Canada. All the best natural health products that are very efficient in treating patients are either not available or only allowed in doses that are no where near therapeutic, and will actually do nothing for the patient. If your interested to learn more about this, have a look at some clinical studies on L-Carnetine, Folic Acid, Amour Desiccated Thyroid, all of which would relieve millions of people of heart disease and depression! BUT, that also means it would take billions of dollars away from BIG PHARMA sales on drugs like Prozzac, Paxil, Lipitor, and many others. ALSO, if the surgeons are not performing triple by-pass surgeries every other day on cardiac patients how are they to make millions of dollars?
The bottom line is the leading cause of death is modern medicine. Between multiple drug interactions, limited spacing and waiting lines, and fuck ups by the “professional doctors” more people die then any disease. The issue is that good health makes sense but it sure doesn’t make dollars. And the next time your doctor diagnosis you with an ailment, please ask him “by which mechanism” and being the professional that he is, he should be able to answer your question, and tell you why he is putting you on the treatment he recommends. Im no doctor but i do know that if you don’t know exactly what the problem is, then you cant fix it. You can put a band-aid on the signs and symptoms but you will never rid the underlying cause. Thats good! (sarcasm)
Last point and i will let you watch the video,
Pharma commercials on television are ridiculous. They are showing you a tired depressed mother, and advertising a drug that you are no where near educated enough to prescribe yourself. BUT at the end of the commercial, it says, “ask your doctor.” How in the world would you know if paxil is going to work for your depression or not. You have no idea “by which mechanism” you are feeling depressed. But the commercial basically says this is the drug for you, and you believe it. Not to mention that the pharma companies spend big dollars on commercials for drugs and spend all that money to tell you the 50 side effects of the drug. Ever notice that the whole commercial is someone listing really fast all the side effects. ABSOLUTELY LUDICROUS!
Please watch both videos and make sure you tell your friends and family and act, by signing a petition for our charter of health rights. Stop the lies, and get all people well. MUCH LOVE signing off
