ps. sorry about that intro its pretty corny but i wanted to do something 'different'/stupid, i think i hit the spot!

peace

Not bad, there is a lot of good things here to my ears,

like the drum sound and playing for most part, the mix is clear and spacious a bit on a bright side, gtr sound is subjective but overall I think it all works together nicely

the vocals are the weak spot of the tune IMHO, intonation is "iffy"and sound a little behind rithmicaly in some places


cheers
 
Cool beginning. This sounds like it is well mixed. I liked the drumming (were you playing?) ... Good playing. I thought the vocals were stronger in the verses than in the chorus. That would be my only feedback really.

Overall this sounds good. Maybe just a bit of messing about with the vocals in the chorus and this song may fly!

Overall good job!
 
I liked the intro too. Funny and cool.

I liked the main rhythm guitar. Good, full sound to it. Maybe just a bit on the crispy side. Overall good music. I thought the drumming was good too.

For some reason, I thought the lead vocal "stuck out" a little far. The harmonies were nice, but not real smooth. The bridge was real cool - but I thought the delay was too long.

Nice job.

the crash cymbals are too loud, not the ride, just the crashes. and that "yeah" around 3:20 ish was too loud.. other than that, (and the intro,) it sounded real good..
 
i like it. nice drums, crash cymbals maybe a bit loud like sam said. i agree with fed's vocal comments. just need a little work there. i like the harmonies and the melodies just the delivery needs a little bit of work (not a lot).

liked the intro.
 
Thanks for all your comments guys.

Yeah i agree with your comments on the vocals, i was really unhappy with them(even for my voice)!!

boydrj - The drums were just computer drums that i wrote on fruity loops. they sound pretty good hey!!

B.SABBATH - i thought that "yeah" might have been a bit too loud and good ears on picking up those crashes, i didnt even think about it!! ill use your suggestions.

TripleM - By "Stuck out", do you mean that they where too loud, or that they needed more reverb or effect of some kind to soften them? thanks for your feedback.

Do you think that i recorded it too low? that maybe i should move it up a step or something?

thanks Balshazza
 
I gotta ask a question before I critique this...are you the singer on this one??
 
I really like the song so dont get me wrong, and I am no world class singer...but I felt that the intonation of the vocals was off in spots. I like the sound of everything, I dig the into and I know others have commented on the drums but I like em...anyway...cool song.

no stop signs, speed limits, nobody gonna slow me down

nice intro.

relatively high resolutiion mix. Intonation isssues.

The melody is right there on the edge of being extremely good. RIght now its a really good song. Highly enjoyable.

I like the high energy of the mix.

Wail on!
 
Pros

Not bad. Nice depth. Nice space. Guitar tone is good. Not too thin, not too thick.

Cons

The cymbals are all over the place. I would shave 6dB or more off them from 4k-12k. They also dont sound very real. Maybe get dif samples. The drums do sound like live playing except for the ride's ching, ching, ching which sounds quantized.

The vocals are too up front and kind of sail over the mix.
 
king elvis, yeah the singing is crap. i dont know whats wrong with me? i sing it but it just doesnt want to be right!!!

Thanks cyanjaguar for your comments. what do you mean right on the edge? almost good or almost really bad?

JuSumPilgrim, the drums sound fine to me, the cymbals arent even that loud? but ill trust your judgement.


thanks for the comments everyone
 
My two cents. Cool tune for sure. I agree with the comments on the vocal intonation and the cymbals. Try to capitalize on the things about your vocals that work. There are lots of singers that can't sing (Bob Dylan, Neil Young are a couple that come to mind that can sing for shit but I love to listen to them) that are doing just fine.
