I've had listened to it a few times and I do like it, even though it was so very different in my head. Seriously, I have interpreted your guitar notation as B♭ major and A G E C2 -> A G E C3 base accord which is maybe a bit too much ;). Although if you don't mind it being so somber I can continue it as in the above sample. As of world/political views, I'm a really boring person to talk to about it. My default state that I try to maintain is "be excellent to each other" and it takes something major (as in "Deny Holocaust" major) in either life or discussion to change it. I doubt we will have any problems. :)
That sounds good to me. I had a friend once that played bass for me in a style that was very much progressive metal. I could call mine acoustic rock at best, I suppose. It was amazing when we combined the two genres into what I would call groove rock lol I'd love to hear what it can become!
