No More

[gmiller1122]

Hey all --

Something new I'm working on. You'll notice by the cultural reference after the first chorus that the lyrics are old -- my friend wrote them about 10 years ago, and I'm just now getting around to recording them. Jeesh, nice friend, huh?

Anyway, I'm looking for your thoughts on...

Vocals
Reverb
Overall mix
Etc. -- anything you want to comment on, really...

It's the first song listed at top of page -- "No More"

Thanks a bunch.

Lots o' reverb on the kick and snare rim shot....I like reverb...but what do I know? Guitars and vocals sound nice and clean... The bass gtr is a little heavy in volume for my preference. Wah solo...nice...not overdone..good job there...less is more here. I like the sound of the vocal...nice n' crisp..not overbearing.(Harmonies would be nice) I think that the song structure and production are good. Recording and mix sounds good man. Strings at the end are a bit cheesy sounding...but hey...gotta work with what you got. good to hear someone who's playing understated gtr stuff man. Staying within your limits is a VERY smart way to satisfy your listeners. Overal man, nice job on everything....cept' the bass volume.

Hey, thanks a lot for the feedback. I really appreciate it. I had concerns about all the things you mentioned...the bass maybe being loud, the strings being cheesy (they're from a low-end Yamaha keyboard).

As for the guitar lead, I had been doing way too much with it, and on my brother's suggestion, I simplified it greatly. I like it much better now.

Thanks again!
