Nice atmospheric kind of soundscape to start of with and I love the guitar riff whch comes in. The vocals could maybe do with being sharper, but they do sound good for the most part. What i do like is the guitar riff though, sounds very 90's, which is always good. Is it possible to download? I mean i would buy a CD just for this song if i could. Great chorus. The bass and guitar are great. What were your influences?

and yeh, if you want to crit mine i'd glandly recieve any feedback:

Nice sound quality, it has a nice professional sheen to it. I liked it, quite a lot. I agree with einz that this has kind of a 90s rock sound to it, but it's still fresh. I also agree with him that the vocals seem to be a little flat in a few places, especially near the end of a few vocal phrases, but it's barely noticeable. Very nice. Are you guys planning on releasing an entire album?

like einzwei & squirrel's pointed out, it sounds rather '90s. bit of Pearl Jam meets Blind Melon imo. I quite like it. it's relaxed and laid back. it's one of those tracks I'll put on when I get home from work or school - just to chill and really absorb the music. my body's actually quite tired right now so this was like the perfect time to put this on. I only wish I had a blue sky and sun, 'cos it sounds so... summer. or summat like that.
my complaints are few - but here they are: the vocals are a tad flat, and the song is a bit too short and/or lack a distinguishable highlight to make it more easy to tell apart from other tracks. this is not necessarily a bad thing though. it grows and grows on every listen. but I wouldn't make it a single, to put it like that. it isn't what I'd call immediately catchy.

ill crit your stuff here, since you dont have a thread.

I listened to when vulcans cry and journey to persepolis 1.

love journey to persepolis, so chilled and relaxed and the keys sound excellent and had me hooked in from the start

when vulcans cry, has a really cool riff that i just loved, only crit is that the riff went on for quite a long time before anything new really kicked in so it lacked in variation. still really liked the song though.

Thanks for the feedback guys, really appreciate all the comments

Forgot to mention, with the vocals on the track ive posted. the vocalist has just joined the band. first heard the song on wednesday, recorded it on saturday, one take with no auto tune.

Also the music was done in a studio, whereas vocals were done at home which is why they may not sound as polished
