Have a listen to my band Empire if you have time

we are an expatriate rock band from hong kong and we are all 18 or under, last year we were lucky enough to play on the same bill as ian brown so that was quite an achievement for us.
cheers

Gimme a Kiss : Very catchy starting beat... made me hang out for what was coming next. Good guitar riff (while very simplistic though).... For me anyway, I think the guitars are too "fuzz"y. I'd personally like to see them with more crunch and less fuzz, but thats a personal obsevation. The vocals aren't my thing on this. Its not so much the type of vocals, its more the melodies just don't grab me.
Another great beat and guitar intro and well put together song. Again, the vocals are letting me down. I don't quite know if its what I said above as its happened again on this song. I think its more the performance of the lines. They seem to have okay melodies, I just don't like that style of punk (and by that I mean true, 70's uk punk) influenced style of roaming around the vocal line, sliding into and beyond the intended notes.
Nice work overall, just the vocals are the thing which would stop me from wanting to buy, or see you guys. Just a personal taste thing, not a "you did something wrong" thing.
