So its up on myspace.com/verataband (i know myspace is gay yadda yadda) listen now! flame later!! Comments concerns, criticisms can be posted here or pmed or xfired or whatever.

i really hate the tone of the guitars... not enough mids or something, they just sound like they have no depth. i also think it could with a bit more on the melodic front, but it's the guitars that really put me off it... yeah, i'm a cranky 'oul fucker. deal with it.

Pros Catchy at the start Good for a new bands first recording Potential Cons Got bored of the rhythm after 2 minutes of it The guitar solo towards the end was really quiet, i dont know if you meant it to be like that, but i would have liked it to be louder. The guitar tone was alright for the intro, but it got annoying after awhile, either have it one way for the intro and change it after awhile, or change it all together Wierd outro, lasted a little too long Just what I thought of really quick. It started out really really well, I think the biggest problem was its length. That stretch between the introish area and about 3:30 (i think thats when it started coming alive again, cant remember) was pretty dull.  AKA Shinobi Quote:Kick some giga-butt

Yeah, i liked the intro but then it all got a little repetitive. Nice song altogether though. Bike wrote:I like to make werewolf movies.

Just what I thought of really quick. It started out really really well, I think the biggest problem was its length. That stretch between the introish area and about 3:30 (i think thats when it started coming alive again, cant remember) was pretty dull. yea, the song wasn't mixed very well and I wasnt there for the recording. the drum parts need to get more complex than remain repetitive. mind you this is the very first recording and this is pretty much our starting point. I agree with the solo being waaay too quiet, also the thing about the tone which, the other guitarst does is he uses synth and that needs to change the problem also is the amp head and we got a new one that has some deeper and stronger lows to give it some more depth. i've also been listening to the song all day and came to many of the conclusions you have. the song drags on for far too long. It'll sound different with vocals but the intro needs to be shorter. 6 minutes is way too long. thank you guys again for the helpful comments, keep 'em comin!

Realy wish you could fast foward on myspace music. Got bored of it although it seemed like it was gona be great at the start. SO yea, keep up the good work you also need some angry singer in the backround seems like that kinda beat. But besides the lack of changing it was good.

not to bad, except that thing at the end... just weird and too long, other then that, it would be good with lyrics tossed in there. Just as an instrumental i agree with the above that it is to repetitive. I am not an alcoholic... I am a drunk.... Alcoholics go to meetings.
