So first and foremost, thanks to everyone who contributed to my recording threads. Whether it was just kind words, constructive criticisms, advise, etc it was all appreciated. It all helped too. I went from being a n00b to being decent at this stuff.
So that being said here's the current product. We got our reverbnation back up and running and have the current songs on it. There's some limitations I worked wit the best that I could and maybe some things that could have been done cleaner. But it's here and we hope to be able to send this to local promoters to help get us booked. So check it out if you like. If you have feedback, by all means let me hear it. And thanks again for being the best forum on the web for music and guitars. This would have been a lot harder without some of you guys.

I'm picturing your avatar doing the lead vocals for some reason.

Great job, mutah! Everything sounds very nicely balanced in the mix.

I wish my Avatar was doing lead vocals! That would be awesome! And thanks itchy! I know I asked for a ton of feedback here and bugged the shit out of my music playing and non music playing friends to listen to stuff. Plus bouncing it with the band members.

<<<< was definitely banging head while listening

Like the guit tones. All instruments mixed well. Vocals seem to need something to fit in the mix a bit better (in my less-than-qualified opinion), and songs need some lead fills sprinkled throughout the songs, but overall, it brings the

Dude you're gonna make me blush. I don't consider myself a great lead player but I really, really busted my ass to work out some cool phrasing for my solos instead of just some aimless noodling.

You are too kind. But I'm glad you're digging it. Means we're doing something right!
Thanks again, everyone. We've got a few more songs that are 90% of the way done that we plan on getting recorded and put up over the next couple months as we gain some traction. Two of those songs are pretty much ready for shows, which we'll also be starting come October. I'd love to say this month or September, but I'm in the final month stretch to my wedding. I'm gonna be busier than god knows what for a bit.
As for the upcoming tunes, I can't wait to get their arrangements finalized and get them put on a recording.
