Hi Jason,

That song is so depresso that my Surface locked up hard after listening to it. No idea what happened there. Check the Bass note @ 5:35, sounds out of key to me. Not a criticism but I kept singing Hotel California in my head due to the chord progression. Nice work man.

I liked the song. I think the things out of key are intentional and part of the stethic, like the synth in 2:49, for example. Nice drumming.

I think the vocals are a good example of what's meaning to be out of key. I was going to do another take, and eventually I will, but I already like how they turned out.

I'll check out that synth, it could just be me putting a note in there that's "out" or it could be a mistake

that's guitar and yes it's intentional hahaha but I didn't consider it out, just a far too gradual slide

I enjoyed listening. Yes it was, moody. But not sure about depresso!! Not for me anyway. I might have to listen more closely to the words. At work right now and was just listening to it. Good work on the drums. I liked the atmosphere you created. Just enough space to breath.

this is not the first track of yours that i listen to, and not the first track i notice a heavy (early) Muse influence in

are you a fan by any chance?

although to be fair, this is more of a Jeff Buckley vibe than straight up Muse, but same difference! this gave me goosebumps...

hey, thank you! There are a couple of things I want to change on it, but I do consider this pretty much done.

And those are two bands/acts I truly enjoy so thanks again for THAT
