yeah it sounds like a squier. at first i was just wondering if you had trouble finding a good tone because track 2 has a great tone considering the model. i'm on track 5 now and i can really tell it's not an actual fender

yeah i like the squier tone. it's raw. it's just not as fun as to play as a real fender.



anyway as far as your ep/album goes, one thing really sticks out: you should beef up that vocal track. i can't hear a thing you're saying and i feel like that's a cornerstone of the music. also you've got a good voice, it's just that you need to find a sweet spot and hover around that. sometimes your voice sounds like it's going to start squeaking and other times it seems like you get into bass range. you need to be more confident in your voice



the guitar is fine, it doesn't really add a lot but i definitely wouldn't take it out. the piano is probably your best bet for creating a strong atmosphere, at least from what i can tell from what you gave me. also you have a lot of dead time, meaning it takes you a while to get anywhere. everything else can easily be improved by sitting down and spending more time practicing and editing

looking back at this, the review reads more like a blurb on the back of a album sleeve.

BM's been talking about pressing some stuff and I recommended he puts out a compilation of the EPs including this or whatever, idk if he's serious about doing a limited pressing.
