this is a clip my buddy and i wrote and recorded over several beers today. we are looking for honest feedback.

listening thru headphones is recommended as there are some cool bass lines you might miss otherwise.

Sounds very Industrial. If it's your aim, that's fine and sounds right. But if you aim for a Rock sound, this is too castrated. No real bass content. Too compressed, and no dynamics.
It's a boxy sound. I like the concept BTW, I just criticize the tone.
Oh, and when you play single notes , you need a bit of finger vibrato to add some life.

Cheers!
 
Re: please give feedback on this clip

we weren't really going for anything in particular, my friend and i came up with it off the tops of our heads and decided to see where it went.

i like some parts of it, but we will probably tear it to pieces and re-do many times over.

as for the tone, i only have my fuzz face clone right now, still waiting for my sd-1 to be finished modding. i really dont care for the fuzz on the rhythm parts, but its all i had.

i will re-post when we polish it up a bit. there's only 2 of us playing so its a slow process.
 
Re: please give feedback on this clip

btw, did you listen thru headphones? or at least good speakers? because my friend is playing the crap out of his bass on the track.
 
Re: please give feedback on this clip

I hear the bass clearly, but the overall mix needs more low frequencies. Even the bass lacks fundamental frequencies. It's like a Phone speaker sound.
I listen with professional recording monitor headphones. And I mix all my songs with those, so I hear enough Bass :)
I am curious how it's going to come out when you re-record it.

gave a quick listen at work - sounds kinda like ministry - neat! kinda also begs for vocals.

Ministry? weird. you're the second person that thinks it sounds industrial.

as for vocals, we've no luck with a vocalist or a drummer.

we really just screw around in our spare time. i play more acoustic stuff that sounds nothing like what you hear here. sometimes i think i should just get rid of everything except my #1, which is a yamaha fg730s acoustic.

it's the drums that make it sound like that, but nothing wrong with ministry or your drums I say. might be fun to try some distorted type vox over it (doesn't really require a singer's talent, hehe).
