    thats fair enough. i have noticed that most, if not everybody, has talked about the sound and nothing about the composition musically. i'm guilty of that aswell. it should seem obvious to people when you put a rough track up that you arent looking for shallow comments about the sound of the guitar or whatever. instead you are looking for feedback on the writing before you go and record it propper.

    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.

    The bass is lacking a lot of presence. I dont know an awful lot about this sort of thing but it sounds like the bass is missing exactly that - bass. I'm hearing an awful lot of fret noise and not enough note. That could be down to poor strings, poor playing, poor action on the guitar, i just dont know. But if u think its the shiz then thats what matters right?! That could have been the sound you were looking for. After all the bass is considered the hybrid between percussion and melody.

    I was kidding the Bass doesn't sound that good. It's barely audible through most of it. And has a not very good distortion on it(my fault). But it was cutting through even less without it.

    I just few the demo as a way people can hear a rough version of our stuff. Nothing more
