The cello/bass in the background was interesting. Sounded like the electric bass was buried in the mix (probably the recording device) mobbing the low end. Vocals and guitar didn't harmonize very well, in my opinion, but that may have been the recording device again. Loved the energy and the guitar player (Ryan) had good technical movement!
No drums?
Would they be interested in a more complete recording setup in an insulated shed that is great for live performance recording? I've got everything to do it and won't charge a thing. They can even use our (Brett - playing partner and mine) equipment. We have drums, mics, PA's, guitar cabs, bass and amp, etc. - all of it. We record digital to a Yamaha AW1600 and could make a CD cut that day.
They used a pre-recorded drum track and played it through an iPod. This was not an ideal situation as they had to turn the levels way down because the cops had been by on a noise complaint once and we didn't want them to come back and write us a ticket.
Thanks for the offer, I'll let them know, and I'll be posting more of them as soon as I get around to uploading it.
