Yeah, that would be cool, though if you'll notice there's some cool bass in I Could Fall and Release, with variations and stuff in the
verses.
The drums are a little less standoutish, though I reckon that could change since with every song released this band just keeps pushing the boundaries,
and Adam definitely seems capable of a fill here and there. It's noticable again in the newer songs that the drums are starting to play a larger
part in the band, which is really good to see, because drums are generally the most underrated instrument.

drums need a bit of work...
but sound good on Release and better on I Could Fall i guess. wouldn't really know about the bass, but i guess they the two do go almost hand in
hand really (i mean with a shite bassline it'll naturally be a weaker drum line or vice-versa to a certain extent).
I've shown the tracks to quite a few now, and one guy says he could nearly be into the livid - he loves the guitar parts and all, but finds it a
bit pop baladish or something. i can kinda see where he's coming from, but hopefully the new tracks will convince him otherwise...

i think the drumming is excellent in those songs! obviously adam is definitely capable of much more, but it seems that they just do whats right for
the song. hear the first thing that happens in i could fall? thats fucking cool!
maybe they all do solos live? that would be sick!

Chritian is wicked at bass, and Adam in awsome at drums... they make the perfect rhythm section of the band... they play an important role in making
the whole band sound amazing.... (Hey Snap does that remind you of a certain lecture i was given, by F?)

I wasnt doubting their skill or talent, i was just saying maybe chris could tone it down during one of the bridges and Adam and Christian could throw
in a few solos or something. it was just a thought. but Adam and Christian are both incredable musicians, INCREDABLE!
And im sure that we all wish we could be as good as Chris, but for most it's just not gunna happen.

why yes amanda yes it does... and no matter what F says i'll never be as good as devon, just like i'll never be as good as chris!! but
thats not such a bad thing ... when you think about it you could still be miles behind chris musically, or any of the dudes in the livid 4 that
matter, and still be damn good @ whatever you do, ponder that 4 a while!

I don't think bass solos would fit at all. I think Christian has it spot on -- he does some nice bass fills and other little bits you only
notice if you're looking for them. Same story with the drums -- I don't think huge drum solos would sound good at all either.

I like drun solos to start off a song. Not so much crazy really fast drumming, but just a bit of rhythm with an awesome fill to lead in the other
instruments, I actually prefer drum intros to guitar intros, but hey that's just me.
