Nice. Is it just something you do for school or do you play a lot in your spare time? |

Just something for school really, i like playing in the orchestra and that's about it. It's just like a fun side thing, not anything big. Watched the videos you guys had on myspace. I'll be straight-up. I think the balance was bad. The drums were waaaay too dominating. It was like the drums were drowning out everything else and everything else was just stuff on the side, except in a few parts. But all and all it wasn't bad. The end of the anti-1337 speak titles song was prolly the best part out of both, IMO. |

I respect the honesty. The Drums dominated because it was filmed with a digital camera. Lol. We hope once we have the vocals done to record an EP in a studio. Then you can get a real taste of what were about. I like the end of the second song also. |

Listened to "incomplete" and "deathpunk," the balance was a lot better than on the video, i still think it could use some adjusting, some parts the drums are still a bit too much in the foreground and draw attention away from the melody. Then there was one instrument that just seemed quieter than the rest, not sure if it was intentional or not tho. Overall I thought it was good, not something I'd buy tho. I think some parts feel a little repetitive and the songs felt a little weighted down, like they kind of lost their effect and felt "draggish" if you will. I think 5 minutes is a bit long for a song anyways. I think that either cutting the times to 4:30 or 4:45 would help, either that or add another layer for some parts, such as a keyboard. I think the introduction of something like the keyboard as embellishment (subtle, in the background, but still stands out so it's easy to hear) in later parts of the song would give it a newer feel and make it more interesting overall. All and all it's not a bad foundation at all. All just opinion, don't take it seriously if you don't want to. |

Nice, any kind of instrument or music is cool in my book. A big part of culture. What kind of music do you play on it? |

Well, for school, I play classical, and the usual stuff. But on my own, I write my own music, improvise, and try to play other songs, like Kashmir. |
