Since there are so many good critics here...

...would anyone be so kind as to check out the rough mixes of our songs at www.myspace.com/illisitmusic

I appreciate honest feedback, and I know nobody here is afraid to give it. None of that sugar-coated BS.

I dig it all, the mix sounds good to me but the singer just doesnt do it for me.. Its forced and im not going to put it nicely he ruins a perfectly good band the band sounds incredible but his vocals need heeps of help.. Its the biggest flaw in most bands.. I would suggest he gets some vocal lessons ASAP..

The band though on the other hand rocks.. I dig it alot.

Really get in to the band, the bass could do with a slight boost in the mix and the vocals could come down slighty. Think he has a good voice for the Mudvayne/Phil Anselmo type drive he gives it low, but not sure about his high notes. Saying this, wish the singer in my band was this good =/

Really like the drum sound, very live and crisp

just heard Pig, I like his clean voice, should maybe encourage more of that just to contrast his screaming, Maynard on Aenima sort of approach may work nicely. Lots of emotion in that roar!

i agree what everyone else said--the singer has a good voice, he just needs to control it a little--what i noticed was in the beginning of Pig, when he has those sustained notes. they just are missing--hmmm--i guess the word is "conviction" it sounds like he might be a little unsure of the note. I also think that might just be from recording, and not in a concert environment. just my opinion--otherwise everything else is really good--i'd go to your show

I hear what the previous posters have said about the singer and the mix, and concur.

Regardless of that, overall, I think the tunes sound excellent. Emotive and punch-you-in-the-gut. I dig your bass tone, and think it's filling the spectrum well vis-a-vis the guitars. The bass tone really shines on the intro to Pig.

Thanks for all the positive feedback. It is really encouraging. I suppose I jumped the gun when I put my flame proof undies on.
