| A while back someone gave me an mp3 album entitled "Driven Beyond". This is supposedly the band's name as well as the album's title. It has the year 2005 on it. It's a great hard rock album, well produced, but these guys don't seem to exist according to massive internet searches I've done. Anyone know anything about this band ?? The following is the song listing:  |

| I can't say that I've heard of them, but I'd sure like to if they are hard rock. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

| Oh, that's my buddy Chris's old band, in which he played drums (for the first half of the album at least). I uploaded their album (they never released it and later disbanded) a while back and put the link up here for grabs. And as far as production, Chris said they recorded it in the singer's basement lol |

I know, I told him the same thing! And sadly no, I don't think they had a logo or anything. When Chris gave a copy to me, it was just a burnt disc. They never went far enough to get any of that done. About a year or so later, some of the former members put together a band called New American Standard, but it didn't really go anywhere either. I think they put out a few songs, but disbanded shortly afterward. |

| Awesome info (except for no logo/artwork). I have the 'demo' by NAS too. That's pretty cool to learn that. |

| I still have this, fantastic modern rock sounding band. It's a shame they didn't get some sort of record deal. _________________ "I used to be indecisive.......... Now I'm not sure."

| I think the original link expired, but I just re-uploaded it. By all means, anyone who wants it is free to download it! It's in .zip format.

| I'm downloading it right now… Y'know, I think I'll make some artwork for this, just to have something to look at when I play it on my iPod/iPhone. |

| So I made some artwork for it. Nothing complicated, just the title, and a background (and a hardly-visible copyright disclaimer, as it is by NASA but public domain).  I just want something non-plain to see when I'm playing it.

| Way to go dbf ! I'm going to take that "cover art" for mine too. I hate seeing no art when I'm listening to my iphone (and I hate puting the boring "No Image" on my collection site) I had just finished uploading this album when I came back to post the link and realized SilentThunder beat me to it. Grrrrr  I snoozed and I loozed It's a really good album though, I enjoy it quite a bit. |

| I made a cover image deally for mine too (some time back), but for some reason I can't seem to find the orig file, just the wimpy little 200x200 folder image.  _________________ "I used to be indecisive.......... Now I'm not sure."

| I think if you used my font with DBF's galaxy image you would probably have an overall better cover. _________________ "I used to be indecisive.......... Now I'm not sure."

Funny, and I like it, but it looks like it belongs on a CCM album or something.
Staybrite, do you remember what font you used? I'd try another version with that font. |

| I actually like DBF's the best and will use that in the Zune. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

| Listening now. Really good stuff, although I think my kids will get more mileage out of this than me. The recording is very professional.  |
