Be specific, you arse. This is good music and it's pointless to say something so dismissive without being constructive.

It sounds cluttered and unprofessional.

At least be helpful when you're slagging people off.

Actually, that is fairly specific imo. You could go into the nitty gritty saying things such as "the percussion doesn't contrast well" or "the bass guitar is overpowering the other strings" etc if you really wanted to but doesn't take away from or really add to the point all that much (I'm not saying that's the case here, I'm just providing examples)

I apologize for the mixing being unprofessional and cluttered but most of this was recorded inside of a garage with only the capability to use 1 microphone at a time (even on the drums) which made recording and getting a decent sound out of it a pain in the ass.

I can assure you the music sounds much better live as we have gotten very high reviews from listeners and even critics.

When we acquire the money and time to have a professionally recorded EP I will be sure to post a link up here. As of now I have just moved back to California and am having to relearn every single old song and a whole list of new ones, but we will be on track within the month.

For now I am adding a link to a podcast containing some live footage + another song played live.





For Red Dragon and every song in the podcast besides the last one our lead singer/guitarist is playing the drums in my place (This gig was only a day after I had returned) for the last song in the podcast I am the one in the blue sweatshirt playing one of our more popular songs (Which is why I was able to remember it)
