I'm the lead singer. I shouldn't have sung. I got a cold coming along =( Umm, I muck up at the end of both verses, and at the end of the bridge, and in the first chorus. Voice isn't naturally that high. Comments please, and I can picture the flames coming now :(

Good use of harmonics, the bass at the start i would say is a little off. Overall it is a decent track, i recognize those power chords riffs similarity to another song tho.

I give joo 8/10!

:) Thanks a lot. Harmonics yeah, the rhythm guitarist loves them. Bass was off yeah, so hard to record one instrument by one. Hmm, what song :O I can listen to it.

I dunno somehow the drum riff during the harmonic verse bits make the overall sound too kinda confusing and ''busy''. Also his fills could do with a bit more colour.

bah i cant put my finger on it, the solo at the end is great though.

8/10

Did you record that in the a studio? You're voice doesn't come out too clear above the racket.

I can't honestly comment on this type of music, because it isn't my genre of taste, but otherwise you have a great voice and talent, hope you and your band get far :)

ps - Any chance we can get a transcript of the lyrics?

Not my kind of music, however, I liked it. I must say though some of it sounds very Nirvana.

Good job though, 7/10. When you record some more, upload them!

Yea what rick-e said, and you're getting free publicity on my side lol. I've put you in the 'Weekly Wiz' section of the school newspaper, so other's can get to your song + comment, if I get any constructive feedback, I'll pass it on to you.

Thats what you voice sounds like all the time shardy! (is Griffo the rhythm guitarist? and who is the drums?)

Did yous make that song yourself? or is it just a cover?

Comments:

@~00:47 a solo starts and all the background dissapears, i think this sounds quite weird (again @ ~1:40)

Your singing is actually quite better than i thought, but its too quiet compared to the music, your voice track needs to be louder.

----

I quite like it, i would lsiten to it again. Howver, in school and to your face i will pretend to hate it, and only have listened to the first bit before turning it off.

have a nice day :P

Thanks a lot Turin :)

Thanks for the comments. Shane, you smell. Pretend to love it and I'll luff you long time.

Anyway, this isn't a cover. This is with my new band, Carl doesn't feature on it. Hmm, me being louder, bah, my voice is off in most bits, ahh well.

sounds awesome mr. shard

im doing a studio engineering course, so if you ever need any help or advice just pm me thru msn m8, so heres a few points you might consider for recording purposes etc:

  • try making your vocals a bit more clear
  • also try mic'ing up the bass kick on the kit, if you have already done this then boost the gain a bit more
all i can think of atm :P will update list

That lad is shard.
And I disagree.
I think it's a good voice.
Yeah it could do with some training for a little bit longer,
But there is nothing wrong with it.

Very good Shard. :]

Can you please make it clearer on how I can't sing. What am I doing wrong and such. That way I can make myself better and hopefully please everyone.

Thanks Jamie *mwah*

Shard, this is coming from a guy who is clearly a pure rap fan.

Because rap artists are amazing singers and all.

love the beat. guitar is great. vocals....im not a fan of sorry. i think if didnt sing it so high pitched it would be way better. Eg. of the vocals being average - 1 min 11.

its aight, but i wud turn it off if it came on the radio.
