Thanks for the crit! Here's yours:

Thanks for the review man,

Song from the get-go kind of reminds me of Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know" purely because of the slightly natural/woody timbre of all the instruments you're using -...

Hey man, Thanks for the crit:

Solid recording - you've got a good clean recording. Only thing production-wise I could say would that the drums have a slightly harsh compression but it's still not...

Nice sound, I'm a fan of VOX amps myself.

I think the style of improvisation you do is something I could get into as it's very blues driven and isn't over-the-top minor scale orchestral shred or...

Line Of The Dead (Acoustic/Folk-pop) C4C

Hey guys,

Something radically different to what I would normally do; folk-pop.

Meant to be a wholly ironic stab at modern folk-pop music, lyrics are up on the song link.

Just looking for overall...

Metalcore/Djent "Turning Point" C4C

Mix is more or less good man - a touch too loud maybe as I'm getting a real harshness coming through on the guitar when it collides with the kick drum. This does as you say though give it a 'heavier'...
