not bad bro!!
Good song and good voice, not bad for no mic either. I've heard worse from people with mics. Cheers!!!!

good song
but a mic and better recording set up could do wonders with this.
There's no question you have the talent- great voice and strong guitar.
Even without the mic this could be improved a lot with better mixing.
Everything seems to be occupying the same space... I'd start with some
seperation...rhythm guitars panned a little left, lead right, vox
centered, etc. Play around with it until you can hear the difference. One
other technique you might try is to double the vocal track- this will
help bring it forward in the mix and give it a fuller sound. You may also
want to try some EQ on the drums... can't help much there beyond that
though.

As I said, this is a really good song that can easily be improved by
remixing.

Definitely talented!
You are really great at putting together a complete song. I recall giving
you all 10s on one of your songs. This one is great, too, although
could be better quality, of course. You have a good voice and I would
love to hear every detail in your delivery. I know how it is not having a
mic... Great job regardless!

Cool!
Thanks for the kind words everybody. I did finally purchase a microphone, so my new songs will be much better on the production end of things.


Ouch, my song went from an 8.00 to a 6.5 - I guess this means I suck.

Nice Tune
Since aclarke gave good advice on how to bring this tune out
technically, I'll go with the emotional stuff.

The lack of mic didn't hurt this tune at all. If you didn't mention it
above, I wouldn't have known (note: don't put negatives in people's
heads before the song - I almost didn't listen because of that
comment)

Personal preference would have liked to hear some harmony and/or
some backup singing (done by you, of course).

The song cuts off abruptly, as well. I don't know if that was intentional
(which I hope it wasn't) or a file thing. Would like to hear it echo a bit
more at the end.

Overall - Very cool. I would have downloaded if it wasn't for that
abrupt ending.

Get that fixed so I can add this song to my collection. ;-)

I'm Actually Surprised
That the vocals are this clear using the pinhole mic. Your guitar playing is just nasty dude. Really clean, great control and nice mixture of guitar sounds. Your voice is strong, did you not sing at all with your former band? Nice tune man.

I'm Actually Surprised
Hell no Josh, I never sung outside of my little guitar studio area at home. Well, except here now...

Now, if I had your voice...

Sounds a bit like opeth
This is really nice. reminded me a little of "to bid you farewell" by Opeth. Very nice! I really like it when it gets a little more heavy sound at the end!!

I started playing guitar when I was a little kid. I've been playing since then, somewhere around 15 years later. I played in bands while in high school and did a bit of travelling with a rather serious band once I got out of high school. I quit ... [see more]
