a doom song called manong which refers to the hundreds of filipino men who worked in california farms in the early 1900's and never were invited to be part of society. they grew old and died.

Re: manong (doom)

Now, please take the following sentences as constructive input
and don't hate me for what I'm going to write.

First: Although it's a demo the timing is so bad that I almost shut the player off when i heard the first note.
Even between the sections there seems to be a lot of inconsistency.

Second: The parts themselves are pretty much what I would expect and are fine but they sound randomly thrown together.
The lack of other instruments makes it boring.

Third: The sound of your guitar setup is good but some of the low chords are too washy and undifferentiated.
The same goes for your Album Red, a lot of the stuff sounds muddy and unclear.
It's almost as if you've cut off (or pushed down) all of the transients with a compressor using an ultra fast attack,
killing all the separation between notes.

Now, there's good things to say as well, I like the overall variety of your stuff on Loudr.
And i like the Song Titles as well (hope you don't run into copyright problems...^^)
Although I would like to hear some lyrics you are doing things your way with good creative input.
I commend you for that.

Hope to hear some more stuff soon.
