Check out my metal band's newest live vid

It's from our most recent show, and the song is our newest song, called "Insomnia." There's a cheesy bass tapping part around 1:15 that you can hear pretty well, otherwise the video camera didn't pick up the bass much. Anyway, check it out and lemme know what you think.

Well the recording quality is horrible, so it's hard to make out anything. Your singer has a decent growl for a chick, which sounds rather sexist, but I've heard a few girls attempt death metal vocals and it just doesn't sound right (see "Kittie"). Sounds like you have some interesting stuff going on, but one of the few things I can make out of the mix is the bass drum, there were some really sloppy spots from your drummer.

Listened to the stuff on the myspace, it's good, but nothing really stands out for me. This is why I stopped listening to the more extreme metals, nothing sounds all that unique to me. I could see it being well received by fans of the genre, but to me, it sounds like every other death metal band that's come out in the past 5 years.

I really can't make much out in the video though, it's hard to get an acceptable sound from a camera when dealing with a metal band.
