hi, everyone. i'm new to this site... seems like a great place, though, and i plan on sticking around for awhile =]

http://www.nowhereradio.com/artists/album.php?aid=2738&alid=-1

the song i'd like you to take a listen to is "Erode"... the last one listed on the page. btw, is there a way to change the order of songs listed on your page?

anyway, if anyone out there has any comments, critiques, insults, praise, etc about "Erode" (or any of the other songs), please let me know!

thanks alot in advance =]

Good tune.  Seems like the vocals are a little buried in the mix, but over all good job.  Was this done on a PC?

Nice song, definately got that sort of indie feel a sort of cross between 1979 by the Pumpkins, a touch of The Cure and the like.  8) Impressed with all the instruments you play, the mix was a little rough around the edges, with the drums maybe a touch too prevalent in the mix, but that certainly didn't get in the way of what is a decent tune.
I think I'll listen to a few more being as it's my day off and all. Keep it up.

hey, thanks for the comments guys =]

toker: yeah, it was all recorded on pc using cooledit pro and a regular crappy mic. glad you liked...

mani: thanks for the praise =] ....yeah, the mix is definitely rough. i'm still trying to hone my skills when it comes to recording and mixing stuff. if you listened to any of the other ones, let me know what you think....

thanks again!

The drums are a bit loud, but it's a good song. It's some of the better stuff I've heard on nowhereradio, granted I'm a newbie also. I'm gonna have to listen to the rest of your stuff now.
