Hey all. We've got all the tracks. However, I don;t know where to put them up in terms of getting them onto the net. Can someone help us out? Cheers! :)

Here we go. As you can see the songs don't yet have titles, any ideas would be great! This is also my first time as producer, so I hope you all enjoy it! :)

gonna dissect the songs, if you don't mind it :D

so
- Chilled Song:
really liked it! It's really chilly indeed. The lead guitar sound is pretty cool, but i think the base guitar could use a bit more bright, and the percussion is a bit too low-equalised.

- Porcupine Tree-like song:
really cool song too! The vibe is chilly as the first one, but more powerful, totally digged it :D
The only complaint i'd have about this one is that i can't hear the bass that well.

- Opeth-like song:
opeth-esque indeed :D
As a recent sucker for opeth's way of using guitar chording, digged this one from the beginning. Maybe if you added a bit more of the groove of the other songs to it, it'd sound a bit more like "you", which would make it even better ;)
the mid-end section is pretty much like that, and it's my favorite on the track. In this one the bass is more audible, but if you EQed it a bit up on the higher freqs, it'd show up more without losing the character.

Anyway, looks like a ton of crits, but i just make them cause the songs are really cool, so it'd be great to see them sounding better, at least in my 2-cents :)
Try playing along with equalizing to make them sound a bit "brighter", i think they'd sound better, but thats just IMHO
keep it up! :D

Hey man cheers for critique! I've found that I usually have to leave it and come back to it later when my ears are "fresh" if that makes sense. So I'll go back and have a re-work on them. Vocals are still to come, I was just eager to show you guys on the forums.

Hey guys, Im the bass player for this lot, cheers for the critisism we need it!
I was trying to achieve a really full fat tone, think DTB lol, but unfortuently I lost a lot of top end, thanks for the ideas yet again.
