Some serious good riff rock there. High energy masterful soloing. Vocal melody seemed a unique blend of Prog and 80's Metal influences. Possibly my favorite from you. Loved it

Bats,
 
This one starts out screaming and doesn't let up.
 
High energy stuff.
 
Cheers,

thanks man,
you get where i'm coming from a bit, i think.....
that solo was a one take, 
after i had worked out a few ideas beforehand.
 
it always feels better if i can get it during one go at it,
versus punch ins

DAMN, one up from the vaults!!
heheh,
thanks noise,
i thought this one had died off,
but like a brain eating zombie,
it has arisen.
 

 
 
 
yea, this one hits the ground running,
after i tried a number of different 'intros', none of them stuck,
and the song is most effective exactly as it is.

THANKS smallstone.....
i've been playing a long time,
so for me, the trick is to play stuff that i think is interesting....
versus 'chops' or riffs....
 
some of my stuff may be a little fast,
but it's ALL based on melodies.
maybe not a 'hum along' melody,
but something memorable.

Wow! You read National Geographic too!
 
But you play kick ass guitar and I don't. End of comparison.
 
I absolutely loved that main guitar riff, doubled by the bass I think? Only mix thought would be to bring that bass up a little, but John Q. Public would never give a  . . . care.
 
I don't think there's anything separating you from bands in this genre that are famous. Great vocals, great production.
 
cheers,

Great guitar work, great vocals.  I'd agree with the comment above where the bass could be brought up a little.  The drums too maybe.
 
But still, short and sweet and a straight up rocker.  I like it.
