Hi everyone, I'd really appreciate it if you gave my band a listen. We've just released our début album for free.

 

I'll let you decide what it sounds like but Coldplay have been a big influence on my songwriting; Godsend is inspired by Don't Panic, Green Eyes kinda Coldplay, Nebulous Rave by Chris' wordless hooks, those are two examples.

 

Anyway, please download, I'd be eternally grateful. Thanks for your time!

 

:)

Yay! Thank you, I love free stuff!:D I'll be sure to check it out!

Downloading right now :)

Can't thank you both enough. Same goes to anyone else kind enough to download!

Thought the same : D

 

I know you didn't ask for feedback, but even though I decided to write some words.

 

First song...

I thought ehh it's the kind of common rock. Then I thought well actually it becomes better and better. And that was before I heard the vocal. Gosh, I may use that word multiple times but it really IS totally common. Anyway I may not be subjective because I appreciate originality and creativity. The lyrics weren't so good as well. Hm, the second song starts very nicely. I was wondering how that bassline will fit into the whole but it did just fine. The vocals are a lot better, at least I think so. The song has some kind of "feel" in it and it's definitely more pleasant to listen than the first one. Very good, very good, I'm sure it's great to play live. The title of the next song is very interesting and so is the new instrument which I assume is the effect on the keyboard. This one also misses my taste but the arrangement is nice. I like the drums and the way they create this kind of impression that the tempo is tricky. With the fourth song I thought "why does it have to begin the same way again?", but it was slightly different. The riff is very simple and what's more it's not really impressing. I was forced to listen a lot of songs similiar to this so I don't support it but well your version is would be the best if that hm... comforts you? in any way. Track 5 was what I was waiting for. Actually this one didn't disapoint me. It was really great and fun listening to.

Great job. Sixth song - The whole idea was great. The vocal line is very good. I really like the singing and the combination of instruments and more electronic sounds. Despite that, I think that the tone of it at the begining was very cheap and it would be better with that changed. The next song was heading into the good direction at the begining so I hoped for a little change but well... after a few moments I was 'surprised' by the same kind of song again. Correct but nothing amazing. I know this song was meant to enliven the audience but I was a little bored. I also noticed that the vocals on the whole album are a little too loud or not too fused with the background. You know what I mean, they're just to explicit and simply out of the whole. Number eight reminded me of White Lies a little at the begining which I realy love. The drums were great after the first verse. What made them a little less cool was the tempo. I also liked the second voices. Actually I'm only halfway through the song but I think it's great. Congrats.

Rapture had me notice that you're really doing a good use of the studio because the effects you used make the songs more interesting. The change towards the end was very good and surprised me which is of course an advantage. What I didn't like was the lead guitar. Sorry but it's lame and didn't make use of it's solo. It was a little better at the very end with those quickly played notes. The last song. FINALLY THE PIANO. Totally great. And at 0:12 I was like "uuu Paradise notes" : D But I liked it a litle less when the singing started. From 1:20 and on the piano kicks ass very much. Guitar is also very cool and the bass guitar is doing a good job as always. Yes, this part is a lot better than the first one. Very nice song to listen. The ending was very soothing, and although 5:53 sounds like Muse's Newborn rip off a little it made me enjoy it. Well I should now sum it all up but I'm too lazy to do that. I don't like genre you're playing but there were some songs and moments that were good even to me, so that's a good thing. Good luck.

How do I unsubscribe from the mailing list? No offense it's just my roommate's very strict about that kind of stuff.

Though its not my genre of music i still enjoyed it. hope you become famous!

Downloading the album now :) PS love your website :D

Wow, what can I say? Thank you all for listening.

 

Re Alien Radio; thanks a lot, designed the website myself!

 

Re BagMaster; that's the best thing anyone can say if it's not their cup of tea. Thanks a lot!

 

Re Carefulwhereyoustand; I'm not sure I'm afraid mate. It said on the Bandcamp settings that you could unsubscribe at any time, but I'm not completely sure. Sorry :(

 

Re The Champion; thank you for your feedback! I didn't ask for it, no, but I appreciate any comments from anyone that listens to our music.

 

Firstly, I'm glad you enjoyed certain aspects. From what I can see, those are the mellower songs. Some of these songs are old as the band themselves - I wrote Godsend at 16, Potencia, 15 (I'm 19) - so it was important to get them out, but we are moving more in the direction that you seemed to prefer (tracks 5, 8, 10).

 

Secondly, this was recorded, mixed and mastered by the five of us in a spare room. We have no experience in recording, other than what three of us learn at college, and we strictly decided against autotune of any kind. We have done everything; every instrument, every vocal, the art, the direction, the production. If it's patchy, it's cause of that!

 

Thirdly, I'm sorry you didn't like the lyrics as that's my job! They're not consistently brilliant, but I believe I have my moments, so we'll agree to disagree on that ;)

 

Thank you all again, we're overwhelmed by the response to this record, and we hope you enjoy it.

I don't like all the songs, but "Architecture is Frozen Music" is brilliant! :wacko:

Btw, is there a place where I can find lyrics?
