[@bauer735]

Why doesn't he post these songs on spotify? :(( they are my favourites

[@drauc]

He's come a really long way, and these are most likely really embarrassing for him

[@drauc]

Not to say that they are worse. A lot people like this more raw form better.

[@TheSinlessAssassin]

@@drauc Such as me. I will always respect Alexisonfire and Dallas Green for still making to this day, it's just not my cup of tea. I'm all about the old school emo and screamo stuff from them because that's what introduced me to them in the first place.

[@gerijeffriedstra5665]

I've been searching years for these demos again!! Thank you!!! I still sing these versions a lot of the time. I like the faster tempo Sam Malone.

[@brookentoof229]

This sudden injury is also way better then constant knot

[@Hugoleo16]

What a wonderful voice dallas has!

[@paulmatthews1396]

Thank you for this. I remember hearing this in, maybe, mid to late 2004?? Possibly even earlier.

[@AlbertaBackwoodsAdventures]

great album, thanks for posting

[@feLdct]

beautiful

[@brookentoof229]

When she, my favourite song that doesn’t exist apperwntly

[@thereflextester_]

Urgency is straight up the demo for Weightless.

[@juliabrewer7949]

To my love you are my everything

[@DoSomethingProductive]

I can’t find this album anywhere. Any chance you could email me?

[@Danny13Green]

Oh here's my EP for a solo project. : ALL INSTANT CLASSIC SONGS

[@DannySarbs]

I like the guitar in this version of In the Water, I'm Beautiful. More intricate riffing and slightly slower tempo.

[@ForeverAbroad]

WOW this version of sleeping sickness is so different. It's clear that he changed the direction of the song completely after this. I prefer the current version but this is interesting to hear.

[@tfed4094]

Agreed! He changed the direction of a few of the songs...example...where no one knows my name...its still good defiantly! Just prefer the album version better! Dallas is God!

[@kolehurst]

20:28 miss you dad❤️

[@teverde3926]

gracias por esto !!!! es hermoso

[@Berserker_BG]

Me too, cant find the album as well. Literally no trace.

[@reng.5934]

If anyone is looking for the Demo Album... I found it recently through the Soulseek (slsk blue bird logo) music search program.

[@deemedpreme]

Thank you bro

[@MusicalSavior23]

"Sarravelle" Is titled "Missing" in other recordings too. Right?

[@mphokgoadi3272]

yeap

[@ShaneAOF]

That was his teachers last name that the song is about

[@jacoblockemy8512]

Glad to be here "When She" sounds like a precursor to Fragile Bird

[@Fast4VVard]

Wish I could have a physical of this

[@EvanKing-ro6tl]

At first I laughed and was like "I love that expression!" cause I thought "a physical" was maybe some new hip expression/slang for love making and you were saying you wanted to bang to it.

[@akmxnakamuraanjiru]

someone have a link to download the ep? difficult to find it :/

[@ferndup7378]

You could use a youtube to mp3 converter and then snip the songs yourself? :)

[@BreeElisexo]

Does anyone know who Serravalle is about?

[@gooberdugas8097]

His old music teacher

[@peachysteins2301]

Could you email this to me?

[@bennyfarinacci1340]

What year was this ?

[@thehurrytheharm]

2004

[@DailyScratcher]

you just put this together yourself?

[@cassiee326]

i believe this was one of the very first recordings he did? with the exception of when she? i could be wrong lol i remember first listening to one of his EPs around 2005 so sorry if im wrong

[@MusicalSavior23]

same here. I thought "in the water I am beautiful" was titled "3 months" on the demo.

[@KevinPDunn]

Did this used to be titled “The Death of Me”?

[@IAmFamousForMyCovers]

Can anyone tell me if this is legit, or a fan made collection of demos from his beginning

[@DanielGilchristYT]

Clearly legit.

[@lunalove9395]

Yeah I'm pretty sure he mentioned this ep in an interview once, where he said fans would mentioned these songs at Alexis shows to him, and thats when he decided to re-record some for Sometimes.

[@pixelhuecrtv]

Is this actually Dallas?

[@MusicalSavior23]

Salomon Servin Absolutely. This is the demo before, "Sometimes".

[@MrMountian1]

Salomon Servin you bet

[@thehurrytheharm]

Yeah. These are the demos for Sometimes.

[@andrewnodwell3564]

This is actually his best work as city and colour

[@kathyhollenbach7413]

Trust me people, Dallas is NOT God. Have some respect for He who created all the different universes, planets, our world....c'mon
