This is a fairly typical Dance & Destroy song which is a blend of metal and techno. I'm interested to see what your opinion is on this type of music before we start gigging at the end of the year.

i think u really need to watch out with your compression.

it seems that the track almost completely loses its real bottom end punch - when the guitars come in.

i gotta say i havnt heard much stuff like this before. and i dont like the bass sound.. but its original i think

theres some pretty decent guitar work in there.

personally this isnt gunna become my fav style of dance music but its good ure trying different stuff

The production is pretty good - I can make everything out (as much as I can in my shotty headphones). The vocals (singing) are nice and sweet.

That's about all I can write. It's not my cuppa at all. I'm not sure if you're a rock band dabbling in dance or the other way around.

This track needs a meaty snare in the verse.

It's so old skool - my goodness, those harmonies - we're talking Toto, we're talking Alan Parsons Project - and complete with a fadeout!

God - I've gotta go lie down.

ha - this is great. where's the shred solo?

lack of bass seems phase related. somehow your mid channel has been scooped out. cheap phase incoherent master compressor or some such. Lose it.

ITM could do with a bit more genre busting in my opinion...

suggested listening dude:
Front 242 (crucial)
Front Line Assembly (extremely crucial)
Armageddon Dildos

keep breaking that mold.
