New band I put together. Loving playing with these guys. Not a finished product by any means, but you should get the idea.

Do you think we need a vocalist? I kind of enjoy not having one.

I like what you guys are doing. But it does seem like the music is missing something. I think adding the right kind of vocals would certainly enhance the music.

I like it. Reminds me of old-school Black Sabbath minus Ozzy :-)

I know what you mean, but I wonder if some guitar overdubs in a studio could fill that gap? However like you said "the right kind of vocalist" would be key....I can't quite picture what kind of vocals I would like to hear, either way I think vocals would have to be relatively sparse. I just don't see your typical verse, chorus, verse type deal.

I dig this stuff a lot! It's your band, so do what'cha want, but I say NO! to adding vocals. I like the stripped sound you've got going. If you want to try taking stuff in another direction....maybe some goofy keyboards? And I mean that in the best way, really.

Man, this is rad. I agree with the no vocals. In fact, I suggest getting way more out there. Check out the band Earthless for a good example of what I'm talking about.

You'd be crazy not to add vocals to that music, in my opinion.
