Hey sheepy,
I usually check your stuff because you are a talented guitarist but I always think the same thing. The music is cool but the singer just doesnt do it for me which is a shame because it kind of detracts from the overall listening experience. It's like he is always a shade under the correct note, a little off key... The mix on the instruments is very good and the band is tight but the vocals are far too loud in the mix IMO. The singer wasn't the engineer by any chance??!!! Nice solo in the middle and I really like the fusion of electronica and rock. BTW, not being hard on you just giving constructive criticism because you asked. If you had a different singer with a different style you could stand a genuine chance of getting noticed by a label.

thanks for the great crit precciate it, honest which is best! yeh the singin goes a little off key but i dunno if thts just because we only had 1 or 2 takes on each of our 12 songs due to time restrictions(i sing aswell, but the other guy sings first verse and the high harmonies thorugout) but yeh i understand its not our strongest point

any more crit?

I didn't reply directly to this as the feedback would be the same as for your previous posts.

I think Superhuman has nailed it... You can play.... your singer can't.... It's all a bit emo. Like I said last time, I reckon you should go for your own identity rather than a composite of other bands.

It may be I sound a little harsh - it's 'cos I've said it before...

YOU rock though dude... find a new singer

The song is pretty faucking good. I especially like the intro and the electronica mix. The singers style does not match the music being played. He sounds a little better on the chorus when he raises his voice a few octaves but the rest almost made me want to slash my wrists. He sounds like Robert Smith or whatever the Cure singers real name is. The rest is good stuff.

Sounds like the singer is never sure which note he's supposed to be singing.

Get a new singer and you have something superb right there.

Wow. Just wow. There are many moments where the vocals fall short, as was mentioned, but when the vox aren't bad, the harmonies are REALLY impressive and simply cool as hell.
