this is really good.
here's my advice for what it's worth.
stick to yer guns.
people that "crit" on here will have little to offer, most of them are twits.

read widely, your ears obviously work- get hold of good reference material, music or written.
I've learnt a lot from electrical audio.com and subscribing to tape op mag ( free in europe)

( most of the really hard stuff you've done allready)
carry on as is.

post more as you do it.

I don't think you should make the vocals any more prominent.

Because your voice is horrible, and it hurts my ears.

Only kidding!

Instead of covering Springsteen, why don't you cover Simon and Garfunkel's "The Sound of Silence".

You could do a radical 'silent' re-working of it. Then it would be the best thing you'd ever done.

Only kidding!

etc.

We should do a joint gig together sometime, to see who is the most miserable sounding.

I appreciate your very kind words, sir. I was actually looking for a bit of "crit" to be honest - when you start to write and record songs, it's very easy to get wrapped up in what you want to do without looking at the bigger picture sometimes.

I'll take on board your advice. Recording will commence shortly.

I think you'd win hands down. You're emo afterall.

You are not wrong, sir.

On both counts.

For anyone remotely interested, I shall be making my debut (arf) this Sunday at Kilau.

I really want to record, but I currently have no means of doing so.

Argh.

Firefox started doing that with me whenever I typed into the browser. It was annoying.

And yes - Rob's PC is still fucked. Sad times.
