Whether you hate us, love us, tell us we suck, whatever, we've been working hard, and put together something we are proud to call a Demo, so, enjoy.

Don't feel afraid to leave comments, or anything, we are always looking to improve, we've come along way from making noise in our garage to actually producing something that sounds remotely like music.

Your Nirvana influence is very present here... If I were you I would try break out of that mold, it can seem a little dated now. Quiet verse / Loud chorus becomes quite predictable. I think you guys need to try hard to keep in time with one another no matter how laborious... I say the drummer is the main culprit, but it would be great to hear your stuff with more solidity. Buy your drummer a metronome for xmas. He should stick to keeping a basic rhythm and apply fills later on, they're arriving at odd intervals. Perhaps everyones rhythm is a little off I'm not sure... but it sounds a little messy & awkward to me, personally I think you'll lose a lot of listeners because of this. The general vibe of the tracks is good... I like the screamy vocals & some eliments of Joy Division in the quieter sections. Also, some tracks remind me of Sister Psychic.... but overall it all just needs refining. You've done the hard work. I think you'd be surprised at how much 'don't give a fu£k' rock bands actually 'gave a fu£k' in being ruthless about the music.

Thanks for your comments, a lot of this was done in multi-takes, so we recorded each instrument in seperate takes for each part, like this:
Guitar - Verse
Drums - Verse

Guitar - Chorus
Drums - Chorus
We've actually moved on a lot from trying to be a "Nirvana" sounding band, and this is what the result was, maybe next time things will sound a little different. I mean, we aren't a real fancy band, I mean, a guitarist and a drummer in a garage, with out a lot of funds, it can be quite hard to do a lot of things we would like. Surprisingly this got us a lot more listeners and fans, so we must have done something right.
