Well, I need to be honest. Indie is the only thing I listen to, from early Fugazi, to 90 Day Men, SDRE, Blood Brothers and much more. Always have, always will. I had a listen and to me it is carbon-copy stuff of the day. Seems to be the latest rage with the kids and the MTV. Just nothing to seperate it from the rest. But I do admire your drive and determination to go for it. Keep at it. Don't let "I'm more Indie than you" types like myself stand in your way! J/K! Seriously, though, all the luck with your talent!And R0CK out with your C0CK out!

as a drummer and a music critic, Burning Bridges:Very tight and clean. I hear a lot of glassjaw in the vocals, drummer is good and most of the guitar lines are clean and original. the bass player and drummer are tight (his kick drum is right on with the bass players hits). on burning bridges, i would lose the double kick towards the end, its way over done, not only on the song but just in general, if you want it to be heavier, do a tempo change and keep straight 8th notes on the kick. sorry this post is kinda geared towards your drummer, but its just my opinion.Dead Kids Rock Out harder:Vocals are sloppy, pitch problems, and the harmony line doesn't fit with the chord structure of the song or the melody line. if you were going for the 2 melody thing, thats cool and i love it when bands do that, but there can't be any pitch problems when you do it. instrumentation is nice... very tight and clean. once again the bass player and drummer are very tight. guitar is nice and clean. i really like the sound of the distortion that your guitars use and his solo lines about 3/4th of the way thru are nice!All in all, good band very tight, well rehearsed. I would like to pick up a cd if your ever in Dallas or are ever distributed here. Good job. Whatever studio did your recording/mixing/mastering did a good job!

not too bad, but reminds me a lot of 36 crazy fists... they are a local band from up here in alaska that are making it big in the rock underground scene.... the vocals and sound are very very similar. in fact, if i didn't know and heard it on the radio, i'd have thot it was them. still, not bad. good luck!
