Hey Wars, I listened to your song. I liked it. Good guitar work and some interesting ideas there. Just thought I'd offer you some constructive criticism, since I'd hope that you don't ask for opinions to recieve praise only. Like I said you have some good ideas there but as a whole the song seems kind of dull. In an instrumental especially, you need to capture the listener with variety in the song. In yours you have 2 guitars playing with the same tone with absolutely nothing else for 6+ minutes. It ends up making the song sound like a jam session or just some guy on a guitar improvising. If you were to add more to it, say some drums in parts, some synths, different-toned guitars, use of more effects, etc. it would make for an interesting instrumental. I think the whole thing would sound better with an acoustic or even better with some sort of combination of acoustic and electric. The first 2 min. or so would sound a lot better with more reverb. Every once in awhile the timing and tuning seems to be just a tad off. Overall, like I said, I did like it. It's got kind of a dark folky type of vibe. It just needs to be much more developed. You could do some cool things with using this as your base. Just wondering, did you both write and perform this song or was this a solo type of thing for you?
