Quite good, I liked it

I liked the lilitu tracks a lot.. this is my kind of music..

the piano really sounds great, the synths are there, but not taking over.. and that synth that kicks in around 1:57.. really nice.

Biggest plus points for me.. the drums.. that kick is simply amazing.. snare as well James.. great stuff!

The singer reminds me of Mike Patton sometimes..

James is the master of producing and engineering! A lot of heart went into this recording. Also, we shot a video for this track with David Brodsky (Trivium, God Forbid etc), MyGoodEye in New York City last month, which will be availble for your viewing pleasure very soon on both our Myspace, and official site.

Thanks to everyone that gives the track a listen.

Cool deal! Thanks James! The singer does sing like early Mike Patten. Good stuff for sure. And the production.................a w e s o m e !

 

[LydonB]

Awesome work James. Drums and guitar sound awesome! I really like the singer as well. A unique voice in my opinion.

 

[Kazrog]

Killer stuff, and I think the new name is better. This band has a very original sound, I've loved everything I've heard so far!

Very big sounding production on this song, loving it!

 

[EtherForBreakfast]

piano sounds and the warble/ghosty synth at 3:33 from Reason stock bank?

I like the vox, reminds me of Patton.

No hijack, but Mr. Bungle self titled is king.

Nice work James.

 

[EtherForBreakfast]

my only qualm is the :17 - :27 snare is kinda sock hop/poodle skirt wearin'

this is strong material though... fo sho.

 

[kev]

nice! the singer is a cross between bon jovi and HIM

Is that a doubling effect throughout most of the vocal? Sounds really cool, great stuff Mr M
Finally... I swear ive heard that piano part before... seems to remind me of a in flames song but no idea what!!

 

[Razorjack]

Awesome work James!! That's some amazing song writing, I can't wait too see an album from these guys!!

the "warble/ghosty" synth is actually the Keyboardist Jonah's Korg Triton Extreme, and the piano sound is:

mic'ed with 3 Neumanns: a pair of KM 184s and a TLM 103.

\m/

nice! Is that a doubling effect throughout most of the vocal?

glad all you guys are digging this stuff.. cheers all. Kev, to answer your question, nope... no "doubler" going at all, though aside from the obvious harmonies he sang he was also sometimes doubling himself in unison, but not throughout, just in spots.

 

[martyfireball]

champion production...details please..amps, micing etc, ta.

 

[BD Malibu]

wow - great work!

 

[unsilpauly]

very nice work james! i really think the production in general is super tight. the material is pretty refreshing as well. keep up the good work.

 

[Kenneth R.]

beautiful set of keys there James

Haha, Jonah and his FRO!

damn. I wanted to believe those sounds were from Reason.

Fired this tune up again with my late aftah'noon coffee - very good stuff. I'll be picking up the CD when its avail.

 

[SickBoy]

Yeah, the singer really sounds like a cross between early Patton and a little of Ville Valo. Interesting, rather deep snare sound for today's standards, I like it.
Today everybody seems to go for that high pitched crack that often has no real punch, and this one slams you right in the chest...

Aside from that, is it my imagination or do I hear slight crackling around 6-7 second mark?
