Cool song, but the ?verbed/flanged? guitar is overtaking vocals at critical vocal parts. At 2:10 or so and towards the end, when you kick in with it, sounds really good. Maybe a longer guitar solo?

I really like the ?drums/samples?

Vocals are great.

Good luck with it!!

TRUE :).....oh and about that sex thing... :D

thanks for listening! ill have to see if i can tone down the effects when they take over the vocals. Being 6 months into my first recording, ive found that the hardest thing to do is to record all the instruments and vocals without anything stepping on a different part.

The drums, are in fact, my little brother. It sounded nothing like that when we recorded it, but theres nothing a little reverb and multiband wont fix i guess. :)

The vocals have been said to not be really understandable, and i think that is a quality of the song i may want to keep. i may want to keep them a little bit more understandable, dunno. i have the lyrics posted next to the song title if someone wants to know what im sayin bad enough i guess. :)
 
To much stuff ...just use a few effects.

1st time I got a new computer with all the different types of fonts etc. I wrote a letter and used everything the program had to offer. Thats what I hear in this. Lots of everything........needs to calm down a bit and just pick out a few good effects......you have many options. A bass might add to the over all picture..I listened on a laptop..so did not hear any bass. Just use effects sparingly in my view. And think of the VOICE as the main thing that needs to be up front and clear. The brother drummer is doing fine, his timing is solid in my view considering all the other things going on. Just an old farts opinion here and that might not even be of interest to anybody.

Hey Conrad. Thanks for posting your song. Your brother is a pretty good drummer. The drums sound really good. I thought the hi-hats sounded distant and choked. Your voice sounds really good as far as recording AND performance. I'd have to agree with Choctaw on the effects. It was just WAY over done for me. Interesting thogh.
 
Totally dig it, if anything maybe EQ the guitar out a bit to "define" it, it gets lost here and there, but it's still pretty sweet. I don't hear any bass but I don't know if it's there and just low, or not there at all, but some phatass bass would be sweeeeeeeet. Drums are great, tell your bro to keep it up!
