The recording quality certainly isn't big-band quality... i guess it's not too bad... but i've heard better quality sound recording at my church.

the shylocks adventure song was kind of repetitive for the slow speed it was at... reminded me of the 80s sort of...

the like a dunce song was my favourite.

there are some really really weird volume issues... (I.E. the vocal will be too quiet then fluctuate up to the right volume then go down... but it's not the singer doing it, some bad mixing maybe)

the sound quality of the drums seemed to be the worst... (this could be the drumset)

overall, i know how much work it can be to get a bunch of un-professional people coordinated into a band like that, and ya'll certainly did a good job.

it seems like the recording doesn't do justice to ya'll, i think i would like it a lot better live.

i stopped danzig for indie music?!!! sorry, its alright, but too indie for me, you might want to increase the recording volume of the voice overlay, its a bit hard to hear, keep going though, you might get famous enough to be used in a game... eventually.

Nice music, better than my band. Although normally out band doesn't know what they're playing, so it turns out being some kind of distorted metal..

yeah, ya'll were very coordinated, and sounded reasonably "tight".

but the recording quality and the vocals' volume could both use a boost.

yer i agree, i got a bunch of drum mics, a 12 channel mixer and drum mic clips for christmas and birthday, but the band leader didnt want to use the stuff and he said that he rather use his crap windows 98 with a crap soundcard and 1 crap $50 mic to record.

Buy some recording studio time, where I live it's about $60 an hour, it's supposed to be one of the highest quality ones in the country, so it might be cheaper where yours is. It's definitely worth it.

The music altogether is really nice, keep it up.

[edit] sorry that was rude [/edit]

but listen, bass player dude, on the first track, your timing is pretty messed up, try training a bit with a metronome or just keeping a steady beat with your foot, and after a while it will come pretty naturally.

also you might wanna mess with your amp settings that's really too trebbly.
