Hey volt, it's hard getting all the feeling you want into a vocal performance, and yet still be understandable. Some times I hear people so worried about their diction you'd think you were listening to a 3rd grade school teacher singing the alphabet song. Ever listen to Radiohead's OK Computer? I couldn't make out most of those words after 50 listens. Then I read the lyrics, and they all just started jumping out, like those "hollogram" paintings you have to stare at for a while to see the images. But what I'm getting at is I'd rather hear a good performance than be able to make out the lyrics on the first listen. Not all music has to be like that, where you have to know all the lyrics on one listen. I mean, if you're analyzing the words on one listen, you're thinking- not feeling.but it just doesn't sound like him when I get him to enunciate (sp?) everything correctly. It sounds kinda dumb.

TripleM said:Nice song. I liked the feel when the chorus kicked in - nice vocals through that section. Cool harmonies, they blended well together. The "quiet" guitars had a distinctive sound. The power guitars did their job just like they're supposed to.
Some sibalance in the vocals. The singer sounded maybe a bit too close to the mic.
Although the chorus sounded cool, the change in volume from verse to chorus was maybe a little too dramatic. Nothing wrong with a change like that, it just seemed a little strong.
The snare seemed a little on the loud side.
Trip...
