10.19.18 | lol I saw that list and thought... this should be interesting.. checking now
The drumming is good man, good job. Production is pretty good too. The clean vocals are not really my thing, but they are stronger than the growls. Don't know if he also does the growls, but he's got some pipes. The clean vocal melodies remind my of Saosin, remember that band? The guitars are very competent and tight as well, and the keys are used appropriately. I didn't read the lyrics.
This style your playing has been done a lot, I'm sure your aware, however as a band you do sound very competent and would fit well on a bill with any of the bigger bands playing this style. |

10.19.18 | Well, it sounds closer to metalcore than post-hc, which is sadly not my cup of tea... |

10.19.18 | Can you count to four? |
Insurrection
10.19.18 | @dungeon thanks man! the singer does both screams and cleans, was curious how people would respond to him. he’s a bigger periphery fan than i am lol. and yea we wanted to release a more straightforward track for a single. we have a couple of heavier tracks and a couple softer, proggy ones that we’re excited to share in the coming weeks
@cugno good call, i’ll edit the genre
@overkill i don’t know numbers |

10.19.18 | what is this, a well-produced user project? a shocker
in all seriousness this is pretty good man, maybe generic but nothing particularly wrong with that
only thing i would say are the screams are awful, like horrible. the cleans are good, everything else is solid. just find a dedicated screamer or something |
DungeonBoy
10.19.18 | That's a bit harsh, but I agree that the growls are the weakest link if you are looking for constructive criticism |
Insurrection
10.19.18 | i prefer the brutal honesty lol, thanks sin |

10.19.18 | Exciting stuff, dude. My band's first song is gonna be debuted on Monday! I'll listen to yours after work today. |
DungeonBoy
10.19.18 | I'm being honest, what I'm saying is it's an over exaggeration. |
DungeonBoy
10.19.18 | pj you've been working on that project for a while now huh? I remember you posting about getting some stuff together maybe earlier this year? |
WretchedCacophony
10.19.18 | sounds like metalcore indeed |
SitarHero
10.19.18 | I agree with everything that's been said so far. Everything but the vocals sound really solid. |
pjquinones747
10.19.18 | Yes! I'm very stoked. We are releasing a three song "demo" (the guys insist on calling it a demo cuz we used a home studio and vdrums, but sounds decent enough to call it a locally done EP imo) on Friday. |
TheNotrap
10.19.18 | Cleans need improvement, but the sound is pretty solid.
You're a good drummer. Good luck man |
Insurrection
10.19.18 | @pj sounds good man. i’ll be sure to check it out when it drops
@dungeon oh i know, i just mean if someone really feels that something is godawful then fair enough
thanks so much guys! |
SitarHero
10.19.18 | BTW did you guys engineer/produce this yourselves or was it an outside job? |
Insurrection
10.19.18 | one of the guitarists knows the producer for attack attack so he hooked us up |
Cryptkeeper
10.20.18 | I'm drunk af rn but if anything you should probably get your band to get some dirty ass fucking licks in there because this shit sounds just a little too clean and metalcore-y to me, good shit nonentheles |
JS19
10.20.18 | This is good - sounds like it could be quality stuff of not my thing but damn your vocalist is going to have serious throat problems in the future if he doesn't learn how to scream properly |
RogueNine
10.20.18 | Could use some more confidence in the vocals, pretty cool instrumentally. |
Insurrection
10.21.18 | we have some heavier tracks and soft proggy tracks coming up. we wanted to keep it safe and release this one as a single |
