    Had a listen to them all, really like the vocals first of all even if they're maybe a *tad* nasally. Remember You suits the singing the best out of them all and definitely is the stand out.

    Only thing, are they programmed drums on the tracks by any chance? Found them very distracting, probably because I spent so long using them and associate them with a bad quick fix solution, I'd suggest getting in a proper drummer or doing some more acoustic tracks. If they're not programmed then they just need re recording, just a little too processed.

    In all though I like it and keep it up.

    Thanks for having a listen. Your right about the drums...the are from a Boss BR600 and the sound drives me crazy. We are up and running only 5/6 weeks and have no drummer but hopefully will have that sorted soon. I messed around with different drum sounds...all sound very 'machine' like.
    We wanted to get the idea of the song and what it should sound like across. We are going into the studio in June and hopefully get a few tracks recorded properly with a real drummer!
    It was enough to get an audition for 'must be the music' in London this Saturday so I'm really pleased about that.

    Thanks again for listening and your comments.

    That's cool, to be honest they don't sound the worst of all the programmed drums I've heard, just that I've been recording since I was about 12 and programmed drums tend to remind me of those homemade recordings. Obvsiously though it's a demo and that's not important.

    Nice work and fair play on the London gig.
