my favorite track is definitely lucid 1, but i liked them all

Ashington · June 25, 2009 07:52 PM

This album's really, really good! I thought all the songs were interesting but my favourite would have to be Shape 1. Great job!

not too fond of the first song but the other ones are fuckin tight

Philip K Dick · June 25, 2009 09:58 PM

thanks for the feedback guys. from what i gather it seems like there isn't one consistent song that people like the most, which is good. when we made the album we didnt intend for it to be any sort of one hit wonder. we put equal effort into each song.

^ i agree though i do believe that some songs can be better than others but really imo these are pretty much consistent in the quality and just appeal to different people/genres

vile emissions is my favorite, but i also like dreams in the dark a lot.
the only problem i have with your music, is that the guitar and drums drown out your voices most of the time. I don't think the guitars don't do a very good job of carrying the melody. For most of it, the melody is being carried entirely by the vocals... which are being drowned out by the guitars. so it just sounds messy and confusing. anyway the vocals are really really good. the part in Dreams in the dark where you sing along with that piano sounds awesome. if you made the vocals louder or something, i think it would sound better imo. but idk

i agree with that to an extent, i mean sometimes the vocals aren't the main purpose of the song and a lot of times the melody is actually the guitar or bass or something so its intentional

but yeah i mean we aren't pros at mastering and dont have pro mics so sometimes the vocals dont have as much presence in the song as i would like

thanks for the feedback!!!
