I havent found a thread like this yet so ill give it a try. I'll post a video or 2 you give your questions comments or concerns and i will return the critiquing favor. sound good?

These are of my band, we're a 4 piece, but our vocalist has been out lately. (his mom sadly past aware recently)

The first song is called Chromatic fallacies and has only been finished for a little over a week. so bear with me.

They are both trippy songs...and I like trippy..I travelled back in time a little bit....

They held my interest all the way through so..Good use of effects..
Your bass could use a boost to the mids....maybe a little overdrive... good job..

Sorry bout your bros mom...that happened to me when I was 16...

Later

im glad you enjoyed it. keeping your attention through 8 minutes isnt always easy. have anything you'd like me to take a listen to?

I dig it. Liked chromatic fallacies more. I like higher energy stuff. Seems tight, drummer's got some good stuff going on. Ya'll actually sound good. Would definitely benefit from some vocals. I'd post again when the singer returns.

I'm goin for all the hits I can get today.

lol thats funny! i already hit that today. definitely dig it man, its funky, trippy, and dark. good combo in my opinion. heres one more clip if you want a little more high energy.

its the chorus and post chorus to our song athena. definitely not perfect yet though.

i think that's pretty awesome stuff. unique bass solo that works well IMO. really would like to hear it with the singing. and i like your drummer even more now.

hang onto that guy.

Chromatic fallacies, Neat piece ......Bring the bass up next time .....
For me it seamed a little buried in the mix.

oh trust me, i know not to let him get away. but he' s fully committed thank the music lords. hes a drummer that doesnt blow out my ear and has near perfect time IMO
