Right, just listened
first of, the band need to change that pic on mp3.com, it looks shit and makes the band look shit.
there IS pontential, I think the singer is quite good.
It just kinda feels too raw and un polished.

Yeah... that pic is old... and the only one we have I think. The recordings were done by me, on my computer... They were the first things I ever
recorded so that would explain the rawness and unpolishedness of them... (is unplishedness a word? I don't know...) Anyway, thanks for the
constructive criticism. Your honesty is much appreciated.

From the mass quantities of emails I have been recieving, it is pretty clear that people think this band is better than Westpoint. It's true. I
am not making this up.
My avatar is better than Jeff's.

i'm not so sure its better than westpoint... besides.. i think that it is a very immature thing to say "my band is better than
yours" ... you should just smile and snicker in a corner as opposed to looking like a jerk out in the open...

Rob, save up some money to get those songs professinally recorded.. that is if your serious about your band
Westpoint is much more serious than you heh

It's funny you should mention how serious we are... because we actually aren't really playing together anymore, and haven't been for
a year. He he.

so your band isn't together, isn't recording anything new, therefore rendering the subject of this thread redundant?
provide me with one valid reason not to delete the thread, as this appears to be a waste of my time and effort.

You sure are earning your moderator of death title aren't you... Well delete it if you want. I don't really care. I was just curious to
know what people thought of my recordings. Sorry for wasting your time with my pointless dribble.

i would just like to maybe make a point as to why this thread is not redundant..
first off... this is the unrelated thread.. second... it is always good to get feedback from people (whether the band exists or not..) and thirdly...
if nobody ever takes the risk of showing off their work then it will never get out... we should never restrict someone from trying to make a
difference...
so dats it...
