This is the band I play drums in, and is my second band. We're modern rock.

It was one take for most of the stuff so be generous. Anyway please let me know what you think.

I only listened to Jacknife, but I liked it. There was one part on the drums that sounded weird. It was after the part (about half way through) where you were playing eighths on the kick and hitting your crash on 1. It sounded weird like it took you a second to get the beat down. I dunno, just sounded like you wern't quite sure where you were. Other than that I liked it. Keep up the good work. :thumb:

Well I didn't really know the drum parts that well. I did mess up and it was only one take.

Yeah, I actually wasn't sure where I was and I messed up alot of the rolls.

Sorry man but you should have thought twice about putting this up after 1 take. And even if you would have I wouldn't have liked it

Yeah. I listened when you first posted this, but didn't comment. (sorry?)

thesmokey1 was right. Why be satisfied with the first take, if it didn't work out and then ask people to comment on it. I would say the drums are too loud, the guitar needs a better transition from distortion to clean, the vocals are a little weak. Just because he sings quiet, he should still support as much as the louder stuff, if not more. The guitar and bass needs to be a little louder. Your an okay drummer, just don't be satisfied until you know you're the ****. I don't care if you are recording into a tin can. Make it the best sounding tin can EVAR!
