The intertwined guitars sound cool and is a good start, but I'm really not feeling the chemistry at all. It all seems very mathematic and simple, and at times just cluttered. Vocals, and more defined, memorable melodies would add a nice touch and really start defining your sound.

It's a good start, but it really needs some fine tuning.

I think it's a good start, but to me it sounds as if each of the instruments is trying to pull away from the others, there's not much sonic cohesion.

they're right, but what's cool (great) is the energy from 2:09 to about 2:40 of 2nd song. Mars Volta is where you're heading IMO. And you have a decent drummer. Your guitarist sounds like he might have a bit of an ego... to always be kind of all over the place. You have a nice bass sound in demo...

I think you guys are playing as though you have/want/need a vocalist? is that the case? It's all a little repetative for music that's not vocally driven. If you're going to go off and be musical, break it all down and bring it back together. it all kind of keeps the chord progression going forever...

Sorry, I started off being really constructive... I'm no one to talk... coming from an instrumental band that played 14 minute long songs...

The first thing that I thought, is that you all would have great improvement if you practised more with a metronome, or if you practised being a bit more tight.

Good luck!

thanks for the feedback.

yeah we really do need a singer,
and those recordings could use a little work.

i appreciate all of you spending you time listening, and i will try to listen and follow the advice you gave.
