I may sound like an asshole in the following post. But that's only because sometimes I'm an asshole.

It's mediocre. Not to say that you guys don't have any skill or talent, you do, but the music is fairly dull. There's nothing new here. You're making music that sounds like other music. The hard rock genre hasn't changed in a long time and your music could easily have come out twenty years ago and been mistaken for "that one metal band."

My philosophy when it comes to music is to always do something new. Experiment. Experiment with the genre, with the instruments, with recording. Don't copy another band (which is what it sounds like), but create something new.

Didn't come across as asshole-ish. Im fine with criticism, in fact i think its what makes someone a better person when they are able to reflect on some critique. Been experimenting a lot lately on different stuff so it'll be interesting to see what comes out of the studio next!
