Hey guys/girls,

My band TheVoiceless just finished our first song "Until the Day" from our upcoming E.P "Blood From a Stone". So I am looking for some feedback from the TB community.

Thanks!!

Wow, VERY good, i like the mix between vocals and the riffs are pretty good, i thought it was death metal but it feels more like metalcore to me, nevertheless awesome i cant wait to hear more keep me updated

I'm only 37 seconds in but I love it, quite devil driver ish to my ears at least with a bit of a kill switch vibe to the vocals and instrumentation.

I like it a lot, keep up the good work!

dude, you know, i don't really listen to metal that much anymore (i'm going through a Jazz/ Prog Rock phase), but your band is SOLID. you're timing is impeccable, and i love how your bass player is able to cut through the mix. GOOD WORK!!!

Your singer definitely isn't voiceless.

Love it. Great balance of brutal and melodic, if that makes any sense.

Thanks everyone for the good feedback. We try and make each song different from the others, so expect something different on the next track. The song we are working on is titled " The Task Upon Us". This song features a guest vocal spot from Byron Davis of the band God Forbid. I am truly proud of what we have accomplished. This is the first song with the new singer. I give him a lot of credit for stepping up and really doing a good job. Thanks!!

Haha.. I think you meant Byron Davis. Byron Stroud is the bass player from Strapping Young Lad and Fear Factory.

Hm, I can't think of anything to say musically. It sounds pretty solid, I'm impressed by the quality. One thing though, I would suggest you don't announce a song until you have a name for it. Sure, a lot of bands label songs being worked on by numbers. But the average person won't perceive it correctly, they will perceive it as being uninspired. People like to think the song has a reason, thus starts out with a theme and a name. Just a minor aesthetic tip. I wouldn't make announcements as often if I were you. When there is too much information being released too quickly people loose interest.

Good Stuff.

This is not a working title, I may have wrote that wrong. We have decided that the title would be "The Task Upon Us".

Thanks for the input
