in my opinion the vocals could do with a bit of work physically and lyrically. not much wrong with the guitar riffs, if i was being really picky you could maybe add some variation. same with the drums, a bit too straight for me. apologies for being so vague.
I feel the same way about the drums. Its in dire need of fills. But we did just try and get as much done in as little time as possible. So there wasn't alot of time for flair. Theres a lot of bits in there which were supposed to have lead parts over them, but we didn't have a lead guitarist at the time. From a point of view of listening to them and not playing them I find now that There will be Blood and especially From the top are quite dull to listen to. But that can be changed.
I like how the vocals sound and they were all done in one take. Again just so we could get to mixing as quickly as possible and because they sounded good for what the demo is supposed to be. I think we'd come off better live though.
