Its quite cool. Nice guitar work. Drums sound pretty standard but work well which is the main point. Vocals are ok, nothing special. I couldn't find any stand out bits.

[kafka1]

Know what ya mean man, got something coming up soon- you'll be first to hear. Thanks!

[Surgicalgod]

I only listened to Dream On and it's kickass! The guitar and the vocals rocks...Excellent!!!

[kafka1]

Cheers man, thanks a lot!

[OliHendrix]

Woooooooah vocals :thumb:

[kafka1]

Thanks dude!!

[kafka1]

Btw, thanks for the add on myspace Surgicalgod. Let us know when you've new stuff posted up...

[kafka1]

Anyone else with an opinion?

[Stringbreaker]

Excellent man, cheers I added you to my myspace too. Very ace music man.

[clairvoyant]

Not bad, fairly professional, too. It sounded like rock with pop style melodies. If the singer could tone his voice up a bit more it'd be really good.

[kafka1]

Thanks for that guys and thanks for the add on MySpace Michael!!!

[kafka1]

Can I squeez anymore feedback out of others...?!

[redrumsixsix6]

Im lsiteng to the first song..........i really like the guitar! Man those riffs are great! Now the drums, they are simple but they keep good time and fit in so well...i couldnt imagine another beet in this song. The bass is also pretty good, has a great backbeat to the song. Vocals sound really good i think....i like the raspy-ness, it reminds me of a somewhat punk vocalist only you contain much more range tone. i really like this song alot, its also catchy.

By the way, the quality of the song sounds really good. Is this done in a studio?

if u have the time please give my thread some feedback:) http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=428077

holy ***, this is so freaking awsome. Seiously i think this is the first band on this website that i will actualy be listing to outside of this website, and outside of my computer. Nice work guys.

[kafka1]

Jeez man! Thanks a lot!

[Surgicalgod]

Really...you guys are awesome. I'm always humming Dream On everynow and then :thumb: it's really catchy. It's the best song I've heard on this forum so far.::)

[geniusgoalie]

That's... fantastic. As it's been said, maybe play around with the drums a bit, but other than that I really like it.

[Driver]

Personally, I'm a simplist and a purist. The song, dream on (while constantly interrupted by my less-than-high-speed internet connection), was rather good. I don't know if I'd buy the album, but I'd turn it up if it came on the radio. I have no beef with the vocals or the guitar. Both sound good. I like the tone you'r getting out of that, sounds like a single-coil, yeah? But I wasn't getting a lot of love from the bass. :/ *tears* and the drums sounded - yeah - plain. Solid, so I can't complain, but a littel ride or a fill every now and then definately wouldn't hurt.

Cheers, man, keep it up! ~~ Driver

[kafka1]

Wow! Getting a lot of ideas here to work on, thanks guys! It was done in a studio but not mastered and I can't recall what pick-up I used on the guitar- it's usually the humbucker but the guy in the studio had me change it a few times.

[carpediem12]

Dream On was my fav. Good vocals and good background music.
I enjoyed this, good work.

[DougJI]

Thats some good ****ing music.

Heart Shaped Box is a song by Nirvana, not sure if you knew that...

[kafka1]

Yeah, but I thought it was an eye-catcher- that's why I asked for "priceless advice," a lyric from the song. Yeah, I know it's lame! ( 'Heart-shaped Box' is actually one of my favourite songs though...).

[silverburst9]

yeah, same with dream on, but its a good song, and i liked it. guitars are kinda droanish. but id give it 9/10.

[kafka1]

Again, thanks a lot dudes! (And Happy New Year!)

[kafka1]

Just got first 2 tracks mastered; please (those who are interested in this sorta thing) go back to original post and check 'em out. All feedback will be worked on...

[hedgefudge420]

good stuv.......was kindof expecting an Aerosmith cover for a second....but i liked what I got instead.

[aznrocker]

You are amazing.

[aznrocker]

Haha I thought the same thing too.

[S_Gates]

Didn't close your eyes as much, but Dream On was amazing. A little plain, but I like it that way. Like Don't Wait a bunch too. Got an "A" from me :)

[fenderplayer1100]

so far all i've listen to is the first minute of minute of Dream on and I realy like it...the recording quality is AMAZING. Dude you have to tell me where you recorded that or if u did it at home what program did you use?

[kafka1]

Hi, thanks for listening. They were recorded in a studio but not mastered. I got a free program on the net for that. I've deleted it now but if you type 'leon's simple mastering program' into a search engine, you'll find it...

[kafka1]

Hey, anybody that heard the first tracks; please let us know what ya think of the re-masters...
