Sounds great. Reminiscences of Alice in Chains for some points.

Alt Rock is a great lib and fits well here. I’m not familiar with Dead Kennedys, alhough is a well known band.
The voice reminds be (a bit) of the Strokes singer.

Yes CHRIS, it’s me on “fake” bass. I used to play bass in the past but I’m lazy. There will never be two Pastorius. You’re right, the synth part is repetitive, just a kind of bed for bass solo.
Thanks for your feedback ! 🙂

Hi CHRIS,
Your track reminds me of some Britpop bands in the 90’s. I like the effect on your rhythm guitar, your solo synth part, also the backing lead (your voice ?) if it can be called like that ? Maybe your drums could be more heavy, as regards sound itself, and your lead guitar less far away (unless you wanted it like that, as I said in a previous topic). Maybe your voice could be less in front of( just a bit ?)
Ending chord is surprising !
I’m listening on HD 600 Sennheiser.
Cheers

Thanked by: SpikeramaHi CHRIS,
I didn’t know you had some “funky” stuff. Sounds good to me. I Liked your lead guitar part and your effect vocals. The synth part is nice too.
Your second track has something beetween RATM and Infectious Groove. Maybe the EZ Drummer could be more “in front of” sometimes, but the song is good. Nice bass sound, lead guitar and vocal effects.
As you said, we have some different systems and ears, so it’s difficult to say what could be improved, but it doesn’t sound crappy.
Cheers !

You’re right CHRIS,
I should have created my own topic. On the other hand, you have more replies with yours. Thanks for listening and commenting ! I asked you about Cardiacs because I find some of your intonations are similar to Tim Smith ones (just a feel).
Happy new year too ! Hope 2022 won’t sxxk as 2021 did.

A short pastiche with Custom and Vintage. Just a sketch 😉

Hi CHRIS !
Your track sounds good to me. I felt a 80’s vibe in the middle/end. Maybe could your lead guitar part (during drums break) could be more present ? But maybe you wanted it like that ?
Do you listen to Cardiacs (just a curiosity) ? Have a good winter !

Thanked by: CHRISHi CHRIS,
I think it’s the good choice for this track. BIg Rock EZX fits very well. Maybe could your drums be bigger, just a bit, (but that’s personal). Like your solo guitar part and when you add your synth. A punchy song with a nice colour, and a “bonhamy” groove (a kind of). Ah, don’t look at my links, they are dead (closed my page).
Have a good autumn ! 🙂
