its the only song there, called "carried there", im a terrible singer!

listening now: the song is awesome, I love it. The recording, well it's not that great, but the song is..so do you change anything? I dont know. What are you after? I think this recording gets the feeling of the song across well..and ultimately thats what were all trying to do, right? Good job!

What equipment are u using?

[Meshuggah]

omg this is SO Beck... nice!

[Uncledoj]

thanks so much for all the kind words!! its really encouraging to hear. the equipment I'm using (don't laugh) n-track , the mic that came with my computer, and an epiphone sg special without an amp (don't have one yet, gotta save). I really need to invest in a cheap accoustic. Thanks again for the encouragement!

oh yeah, the drum track was made using Hammerhead 1.0.

[Meshuggah]

Omg. You are my new hero!

Reminds me about when I as a kid recorded a boss dr550 through a Roland 10W simultaniously with the guitar miced with headphones to tape, then placed my stereo-speakers next to the guitar-amp and play along and recorded THAT with a 'boombox'... Wish I had that spirit left in me...
