Don't know what the correct forum for this is so I'll post it here.

i am looking for some feedback on the tunes that i have posted on my band's website:

I am playing both bass and Chapman Stick.

any comments (positive or negative) would be great.

I like it. Modern with some cool grooves and a lady that can sing. I definately would like to hear some more.

The only negatives I have with your songs is the mixing. The vocals on the first two songs is (to me) too overpowering. I can't really hear the instruments that well. Also, the guitar distortion sounds a little muffled. The third song the mix had a nice balance until the the harder riffs came in. I felt at that point the same issues as the first two songs came in.

I asked my wife and my guitarist to listen as well and we all shared the same thoughts on the vocals. My wife didn't think the guitar sounded muffled. Thats 3 reviews for you in one post.

BTW, wife liked your music, guitarist said he didn't.

yeah the mix is all over the place.
it was a soundboard recording from a live show so it was more of a document then an actual "recording".

we are going into the studio in september so all of those problems will be sorted out.

thanks for the reviews!~
2 out of 3 is great...
