    Tell me what you think

    Thanks for all your comments guys! Joro you always have great insight... And just if you were curious, the song is written with me talking to myself. So if I say "you" then it actually means me. And, the subject is actually discussing my drug use of the past. Saying "Listen to me now, for just...

    Tell me what you think

    Ok, one of my favorite pastimes is getting totally brutalized by people critiquing my work. It fuels me to work harder and this song is starting to get a little stale... When I wrote it it was the greatest song I'd ever written (or so I thought). But now it's time to put it out there and see how...

    what's wrong with me

    I really enjoyed the song, but like powder said it's something that sounds like it has to grow on you... unlike, what powder said though, some of the songs I think are great I absolutely hated the first time I heard them... Listening to your song intrigued me. It made me want to hear it again...

    The Hives

    Yeah I'm still listening to "The Warmth" and every time I listen I find something new that just makes me go "wow". Plus, anyone who is a guitar player would do good to look at some of Mike Einzinger's guitar parts.... the chords he uses and how he puts them together are just amazing... speaking...

    The Hives

    I tell you what though... all the bands you listed pretty much sound the same... except maybe The Vines... I'd much rather support originality like Saves the Day, The Get Up Kids, and Incubus. But... at least there's rock coming out now, maybe the masses will once again think it's cool to rock...

    Amen to that! If you want to dance... (now this is a novel concept) become a dancer! If you want to be a musician, then write, play, and perform your OWN music

    The Hives

    I know this is kind of off topic, but I think it's so refreshing to see someone writing their own songs, playing their own songs, and performing their own songs these days, and actually making money doing it. I've been getting more and more sick of all these pop groups using other people's...

    What's your fav distortion/overdrive pedal?

    And if that's what you like then it's awesome... but there were some other people talking about a more modern sound... I wasn't saying old school in a bad way man

    What's your fav distortion/overdrive pedal?

    I've heard 64Firebird's Daddy-O and it sounds really good... but it's kind of old school as far as distortion... for something more modern I really love my Danelectro Fab Tone... Actually, I had a sound guy plug an 18V power supply into the 9V Fab Tone and it hasn't sounded the same since, but...

    Solved Here's a song LOOK IT OVER!! TELL ME WHAT YA THINK

    Solved Here's a song LOOK IT OVER!! TELL ME WHAT YA THINK

    well as far as the emotion it's about an 8... but where you lose points is originality... overall I'd give it a 5... with some work you can improve that... try inserting something to personalize it some more... something specific that happened to you.

    I didn't even realize he was playing here when you said it... my Mom just called me at like 7:00 and was like "you wanna go see Buddy Guy?"... it was my girlfriend's first blues show... she got chills on the first song he played... I was just in awe the entire time.

    Here's my jugular - rip on in! Lyrical critique requested.

    I don't really know what I had in mind... that could've been kinda R&B 'ya know really soulful or even like heavy rock... wherever you wanted to go with it... I listened to it and I like the guitar part you had for it... only thing I might change is the key, the vocals are in a really low...

    Here's my jugular - rip on in! Lyrical critique requested.

    I agree with what mikeh said, but I also like that musically this song can go quite a few different ways... I'm sure you've probably go music to it already but just reading it I could hear quite a few different styles that it could be done it and that's kinda hard to do... It's subject matter is...

    Solved Here's a song LOOK IT OVER!! TELL ME WHAT YA THINK

    well dude... while it's heartfelt it's kinda a played out theme if you know what I mean... I like the way it's written, and it's going to appeal to a lot of people, but I personally like to write songs that are a little more specific and that people will relate to on a level besides the...

    Dude! I've been listening to Chris Duarte for a long time! He's amazing... If any of you guys get a chance try and check out Bugs Henderson sometime... I don't know how often he leaves TX anymore, but he's in his 70s and still rips it up on stage... I got to see him in April and he still shows...
