I think it looks good. Kudos on not having a music player load as soon as someone logs on. That's a big peave of mine.

I like it, but I'd be really curious as to what sort of music you guys play. The site itself has a very cool dark feel to it, so I assume that you guys are metal or something metal-ish, if so I think you have a winner right there.
My only criticism - I'm a firefox junky so I'm not sure if this is browser specific or not buy when I click on your "gallery" section, it pops a new screen to run through pics, but the screen is full-sized with the pics crammed into the top left corner. If the screen could be smaller to just encompass the pics only, it would kick arse.
Other than that, you get two thumbs up.

I agree with Phalex that no website should play music automatically (though I begrudgingly grant myspace a pass as people now expect that any myspace page will force-feed them music).

Couple of remarks - firstly, the photos on the biography page look bad. They're all either low-resolution or they have been resized without resampling so that they look jaggy. What software did you use to generate them?

On the show dates page, you need to use an HTML table to make sure that the rows line up.

On the contact page, there is no point having each member's individual email address. If you like, you could make each band member's name on the biography page into a clickable email link, but what I would suggest that you do is just have a general email address. Perhaps instead of having a contact page, you could just make the "contact" link in the menu into a mailto link.

It seems that once you get past the opening "splash" page, there are no links to your myspace page. I'd suggest that you get rid of the splash page (so make id2.html the default) and make sure that there is a link to your myspace page on every page of the site (maybe add it to the menu at the top?)

Also, I feel like you need a bit more black space around the smalltop.JPG image - maybe another 10px at the top and bottom? It looks a bit abrupt.

You also need to get rid of the underline on "Current Set List" on music.html - it is inconsistent with the rest of the site, and suggests a hyperlink.

Hope this helps,

S.P.
