Hej folks, www.myspace.com/wtce('first song' is without me on second guitar, 'candy for lovers' features me... still, the female voice is lacking.) My second band (main band) will probably have some demos up in the next days. All those songs are just recordings from the rehearsals and... Yeah, we fucked them up sometimes, at some parts. Thanks for listening.

i liked it quite a lot. the instrumentals were well put together, it reminded of the early ATDI stuff, AVC! and hell paso. but the screaming really ruined it in my opinion

Thanks Castro. The screaming - different strokes, I reckon,plus, the recording isn't that good and the amp he's singing through is a piece of crap. Really. It's originally a bass amp and whenever someone plays bass over it, he has distortion on it - though, there is no switch for distortion - so I guess it's just a shitty old amp. I wonder a bit about the early ATDI comparision, how come you think? Rubberneck, I'll check outr your stuff soon, I promise.

The music seems pretty good, if you could get a recording that sounds a lot more full think it would help a lot. I like the screaming though.
It does have a bit of an atdi feel, like acro type stuff, but with distortion.

I enjoyed it, agree that the vocals could do with a bit of "fine tuning" or whatever, but overall, one and a half thumbs up!

Yeah, we just need our female voice + a good PA and it'll sound a lot better.
And thanks, para, 'Candy For Lovers' was just not only a rehearsals but it was the fourth time we rehearsed with me, we wrote the song the first time I've jammed with the band... (Hej, even I can show off from time to time, right???)

rival,
i finally got off my ass and took a listen to your songs on campus yesterday. since you said that the recordings were from a rehearsal, i assume that it was just one mic recording the whole band simultaneously? if so, i'm impressed. most punk/hardcore demos that i hear are honestly horrid because everything is too load and even the drummer has the gain knob set to 10...ok, that was a really bad joke. as everyone has pointed out, the vocals could use some work, but i won't critique them too much because they are so low in the mix i can hardly hear them. besides the vocals, the guitars, bass, and drums sound pretty tight, very tight for your style of music. catchy progressions and transitions that carry pretty well. the only complaint is that it doesn't sound like anything i haven't heard before, but i can't remember the last time i heard a band with a revolutionary sound. i would certainly be interested in hearing a final product.

ha, thanks for that. www.myspace.com/thismistakewasgoldis my other band. same applies here - shitty recordings, the singing isn't meant to be distorted, but, you know... amps. but thanks a lot for listening and the 'revolutionary sound' thing is really amazing to hear. edit: Okay, I was a bit drunk. Didn't get the 'revolutionary sound' bit that well, did I? Hehe.

Where The Circle Ends has a new song up... it's meant to be some kind of outro. most parts are improvised.
and PLEASE, check out this mistake was gold.
thanks a lot!

Similar? Not at all. That's what I'd say... We're pretty different.

This Mistake Was Gold are pretty good, shame you categorised yourself as emo though!
Is the song "eternal sunshine" at all to do with the film?
I'm not the most technically musical person so I wont go into detail of what i think of the music, but it sounds alright to me, definate potential.

Yeah, it somehow has some mid-90ies-emo influencs. good bands, not pathetic, whiney bands dressed in pink & black with loads of make-up... that kind of thing. i found it hard to categorize us.
yes, it apparently has. the lyrics aren't written yet, but i've got a lot on my mind and a few ideas on paper... the lyrics our singer sings are most of the time gibberish he made up in that moment.
thanks a lot.
