Re: If we make it (Better Luck Next Year reviews)

Better Luck Next Year There are a ton of songs so I'm definitely half-arsing this. Robyn Mackenzie Rockin' beat. Love the doubled vocals and harmonies. This verse melody is so catchy. Chorus is super catchy. This is alt-rock-pop songwriting at its best. All this is missing is the zillion dollar pro...

Re: Graphite vs Charcoal (Let's Call It A Draw reviews)

Howdy folks! Glenn Case Nice sfx at the beginning. It's those little touches that show that an extra bit of care and thought was taken. Vocals seem a bit dry, could use some delay/verb. The instruments are airy and atmospheric but then the vocals and harmonies seem too out front. I like the chord ch...

Re: No worries, it's all... (Good Trouble reviews)

Great stuff everyone! So many submissions! It has been a while for me, but here goes... Balance Lost Nice stereo guitar separation. I love the vocal stylings on the verse, some nice delay/chorus going on there. It gives me a nice melancholoy feeling like I'm listening to some good Elliott Smith. The...

Re: Hope You're Having A Nice Review (in Jamaica Reviews)

Johnny Cashpoint - Enjoying the accent. Sweet groovy organ. Catchy hook. Like the humor. Would like a longer track with some added instrumentation. Hillbilly - I'd prefer a shitty mic'd guitar over an acoustic/electric plugged in. It's got this specific tone that gets to me. There's a solo happening...

PFMKM Diggin' that fat organ (that's what HE SAID) Have you done any goth music? You have a great sensibility and voice for it. I went to a goth show the other night and it was a hoot, especially if you like people wearing black outfits with buckles and whatnot. Nice harmonies. Margret Benson and t...

I got tired of having my drumming called "sloppy" (which, of course, it is) so I tried to tighten it up this week. Wish me luck!

paco del stinko: very cool irish folk jethro tull vibe up front. Cool vocal melody, it goes places I don't expect. The song has a constant build, I kept longing for a crazy big BOOM with some queens of the stone age riffs. Got more of a mellow jam, but regardless, great times. gregg boethin: I like ...
