Hi everyone, after lurking for a while I have decided to take the plunge and ask your opinions of my songs.....any opinions will be gladly received.

Thanks in advance and here is the address.

Hmmm...

Sound like you went a little crazy with EQ in the first clip -- excessive (and unpleasant) high-end and the kick had too much "point". The mix had a strange hollowness to it, as if the tracks weren't really working well together.

The second was much more balanced with a more realistic tone overall. A little bit excessive fingersqueak in some places - *some* is nice but sounds like you may have overcompressed the guitars, causing the squeak to be exagerrated.

I wouldn't put such obvious reverb on the vocals -- go for a more natural sound that kind of blends naturally into the track. Very often, if you can hear the reverb, you've used too much.
 
I am no expert by any means but I thought Butterfly painted a really good visual picture for me.

Also as far as the reverb goes it depends on what you are going after. Some of my songs I want reverb loud and clear that is the whole point so if that is what you were going for then more power to ya.

Keep up the good work.
