It's done! The final song list is complete for the Poppa's next CD "In Vein" (thanks to Dead Nuckles for that title by the way).
The boys dropped the song "Outside My Door" and added the new song "Setting Sail" (Give it a listen here: Setting Sail.) They've also included their song "Party With Poppa Vein". They have posted a live version (You can check it out here: Party With Poppa Vein.) which may end up being the version that makes it to the CD - let 'em know whatcha think!

New song "Sweet Love" posted

Here's another one for ya! This is a simple mellow groove feel good tune to bop yer head at. It just makes ya groove! It's got some guitar and synth leads, B3, and even a bit o' trumpet to make ya happy.
This released version will likely go through another mix or two but probably no new tracking! Check it out: Sweet Love.

In Vein CD
The second CD from Poppa Vein is in the works. The 12 songs are listed below in one form or another - the boys are posting different versions of them as they get recorded.
This follow up CD will be beyond historic, perhaps even topping the big bang. Or perhaps the big burst.
The goal for this CD is to be a bit more diverse, yet at the same time keeping in the same vein as Bad Blood - rock with a bit of humor and raunch. There
will certainly be some rockin' guitar based tunes, but expect some unexpected sounds to be mixed in as well. Just check out "Coming To" for
proof - some hip hop rhythm, weird vocals, and with clean, funky, and driven guitars.
While the CD and songs are still in progress you can check 'em out here, and even download 'em, and it's all free you lucky dog. Get 'em while you can! Try to get all the different versions that get posted! You'll be able to sell 'em for your retirement!
And if you do grab a copy - we'd really like you to leave a comment.
