i dont like metal music so im not going to comment on the music. i listened to about 10 seconds, the vocals are way too high in the mix.

Checked out both songs. I never give sparse feedback, so hear it is:

1. Your singer seems to be doing what I like to call "chickenhead vocals." In other words, the volume of the vocal track is all over the place, perceivably because he moves his head closer and farther from the mic. Particularly on the second track.

2. The first track was a little unbalanced. The intro was all sorts of "Under the Bridge," pretty, but still raw. Then there's this HUGE dynamic shift for about 12 seconds, and back to the intro portion for a verse. Its just a bit all over the place. Which isn't to say that strong dynamics shifts are bad, they're awesome. I think you might just wanna iron them out a little bit.

3. The intro had a quick sour note. Also, the intro was a bit long. The kinda thing that I'd appreciate at a concert, but not on record. This is probably a personal taste thing, so I wouldn't pay me any attention.

Yo, I listen to a lot of music but I am a hip hop R&B cat so I wouldn't imagine you putting my opinion at the to of the list but this critique for me hit it on the head. I also felt you were all over the place, the intro was to long and the vocalist seems to be a bit weak. I do think with proffesional help the vocals can get there but for some reason he seems to be faking it.( if that makes sense to you) The song has some hot momments and qualities to it but it's not a hot song. I think if you reworked that joint it would be dope. reminds me of a local band out here that got major spin. They had they shit together. I bet this song would be tight to hear live.

LMFAO!!! i just pictured a chicken sitting in front of a mic and singing this guy's song!!!ha ahaha...thats funny lol...Anyways

Everything sounds too weak to me. The singer IS all over the place...Try fixing it up a little bit.
 
OKC = Oklahoma City?

I like metal and you seem to have some good ideas......but damn, use a compressor on the vocal screams.......keep working on it brother...has possibilities, but you should retrack the vox and gtr at least...
 
I'm going to be honest here.

You guys suck and everyone above who thinks your music has potential, they need a new set of ears. You will not get signed with that sound, production, vocal, and everything else.
