    Putting a record out and having people buy it is a different story. Technically, I've already put one out, but the songs were ghost written.

    Put it on soundclick, purevolume, myspace (well, it did start because it was supposed to be a music site), etc. and see how you do first. I held #3 on one of the Soundclick charts a year or two ago, for some time. Think it was Folk-Rock and the Acoustic charts. Damn hard to hit the top 100 or so on the acoustic charts. That was back when I was doing alot of Laurence Juber style stuff...

    I don't want a fucking record deal, I want artistic freedom. If I had the money, I'd get a Tascam and a Mackie, CD duplicator, and do it myself, but I've got better things to do right now.

    Aside from that, I've known someone who owns a studio and I've recorded plenty of demos before. Easiest way is to just introduce it to shareware and torrents and let it take itself on a journey. I can find things I've done all over the internet... You pass out copies of demos, then whenever you're ready, one day, make the step. You have to know what you're doing before you get into the business end of the deal. It's easy to get a record deal, but is it easy to get one that would actually be willing to work with you? [​IMG] You jump into it and you're a dead man. In the Nashville country scene, there's been murders over this shit before...

    Hourglass (formerly the Allman Joys, sucessors to the Allman Brothers)... The Monkees... Green Day.

    That's all you need to look at to know you're selling your soul.

    I don't see why someone would have to write songs in order to give their opinion on a certain song. I understand it's easier to "criticize" something if one personally knows the technical aspects, but you don't need a background in music to have a certain preference when it comes to what you like and don't like.

    Seriously man. And I hate it when someone asks for an opinion, and when they hear something they don't like they get pissed off. If you don't want negative feedback, don't ask for feedback at all. :)

    Theres a large difference between constructive feedback, positive or negative, and someone just saying it was horrible point blank, but with no suggestions of how to improve

    "What would rock 'n roll be without feedback..."

    I dont think it was that bad, if thats what kind of muisc you like, its a lot better then anything i hear from the bands around here.

    Agreed.

    If you can't handle the truth, then I might as well lie.

    I actually rather liked it. Musically, it's very talented and the sound is the kind of stuff I like to listen to. I'm no pro music critic, but I'll give this a shot.

    My comments: The number one most important thing in any song, in my opinion, is the lyrics. The words, if they mean anything at all, (which, from what I heard, I think they do) should come out loud and clear - more so than even the instruments, since the best music both sounds good and says something. In this song, I could hardly hear the lyrics. They need to be much louder and clearer.

    Your transition from the softer first half to the more rock-ish end was very good, much better than most amateur music I've heard. Could be just a tad smoother, but very good as it is. Maybe let your bass guitar increase volume but not intensity through that transition to keep the soft feeling but prepare for the increase in speed later.

    I personally feel like this song deserves more of a finale at the end. Your drum roll could be louder and the guitar part more pronounced. It feels to me like it should slam to a close, but it rather fades off at the end.

    Best wishes, peace, and happiness,
    Aymi
