Radiation Sickness

Bastard beat me to posting this, but give the three tracks a listen and let us know what you think. Recording quality is less than professional (i.e. my laptop), but its not awful.

 

laptop punx oi oi!

 

Good start guys! Keep going!

 

I agree, sounds good!

 

Wait, you say, fuck myspace, but you have a blogspot account, which is directly owned by Google. What are you trying to prove????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

 

in cyberspace, internet owns you!

 

^ Hahaha. Family Guy.

I agree. I like it. I love songs that start with bass lines.

 

Great start guys.
Just one suggestion, not to cut you down, 'cos I think you've done a great job and this is my own opinion only and others may disagree.
Would it be possible to try and bring up the vocals in the overall mix, and slightly reduce the bass in them? Bass in the vocals that is, not the bass in the overall song.

 

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

We've gotten several comments on the vocals needing to be a bit louder. It's mainly a problem with our crappy mic, but its definitely something we're gonna work on for future recordings.

Also, anyone have a suggestion for a better audio recording program? I'm pretty unhappy with garage band.

 

Try energyxt2.5 compact edition. I find it quite good and there are lots of VST add-ons especially for guitars and amp modelling.

 

nice noise guys but plz try to turn the vocals up a bit ans maybe get some lyrics on there aswell?
the artwork btw

 

Actually... turn them down.

 

whahaha or that

 

Family Guy were actually referencing the comedian Yakov Smirnoff who was the creator of that joke =P

On topic: Awesome stuff!

 

I have a question ( in general) why do all punk bands have bad vocals ( i mean not bad - bad, bad as I cant hear them)? I saw someone said that earlier.

 

In my experience its just crappy equipment. Our band uses a $20 microphone that's on its last legs. Instead of a PA we have a little guitar amp. Mostly because PAs are super expensive.
