I listened to a couple of songs and thought they were well written and played, and nicely sung. However, it itsn't really my cup of tea so I'm not best positioned to judge its merits. Erm maybe try being a little more dynamic, more loudness and quietness or something? dunno. sorry I'm not very helpful :roll:

I like the songs. The vocals are very nice. Keep up the great work!

Tune your guitar before every take (unless you're going for that type of thing.) The crackle in Paradise is really annoying. I'll agree that more dynamics would be cool. Bull reminds me of a song from Sifl and Olly.

Sounded nice to me, I was listening on computer speakers. The guitar sounds nice and your vocals are good too. Sounds like you double track them to good natural sounding effect, not that it is noticeable in a bad way the two vocals add to each other.

You sounded in your posting like you are just starting, if thease are some of you first home recordings you are off to a great start.

Well here's some advice:

Lose the stupid ass digital drawring of "pretenSious-old-me-who-is-oh-so-sensitive"signature.

Other than that, your music's ok.

Alrighty, EA.

I really appreciate all the comments and feedback. I'm not sure if Jeff posts on this forum, but thanks for adding the guitar, keys and drums to Bull. It got me pretty excited about finding some other people to play with.

I recorded a new song and tried to fix some things that I was doing wrong in the other tracks. IE, tuning my guitar beforehand/ not needlessly dubbing the vocals/ attempting to be somewhat confident with my voice.

The new song is called 'Tralfamadore'. It's about that friend of mine that shot himself in the throat. It's been 10 months since we lost him and the whole musical catharsis thing actually kinda' worked for me.

If you have any criticism/opinions/tips that you'd like to throw at me about this new thing, I'd really appreciate it. I trust your musical opinions more than those of most people that I know :).

So, yeah. Thanks.

There is a new song up that was inspired by a class I'm taking on the New Testament.

Take that, Jesus.

You benevolent bastard.
