Okay, I have another song online, the imaginitively titled "Song B" (Thales has already cornered the market for "Song [number]" ).
It is important to remember that this is only my second ever song. I haven't bothered to concentrate on good sound quality, instead recording it quickly to see what people's reactions are. As such, the guitars sound a little fuzzy and there is no bass ('cause I haven't got access to one any more). The separate guitar parts of the different sections were recorded in one take, so there are mistakes in there, particularly when my own drums caught me out . I could, and do, play it better, but when I was recording it I just wnted to do it quickly. And as for the "lead" that starts at 1:21, the main idea for that is to say "a lead goes here" rather than "this lead goes here". That lead was also partly made up as I recorded it.
Any constructive criticism is greatly appreciated. Please note the word "constructive". Simply saying that the song is bad is not very helpful, I need to know why it is bad and, if possible, tips on how to improve it. I am perfectly capable of slagging myself off, thank you very much .
I am aware of a number of flaws, and I also know that this song is unoriginal. Hopefully I will develop my own sound as I go on, and if I ever get a band together the sound will be changed according to the different influences of the other members.
The link to the song is here, or can be found in my sig. Please don't expect too much. Also, if you haven't got the second version of January's Prelude, get it, because Song B is designed to follow on from January's Prelude (plus Song B uses some riffs that used to be on the old version of January's Prelude).
Cheers
