ive been playing for 10 years lol... ive been in the band for about 2 months.

That was my first gig with the band, it went pretty smoothely i reckon lol. Its just at a local metal bar in Brisbane (my hometown).

To tell you the truth... this is kinda softer than the style id like to play hahahaha

what's the point of having vocals if you can't understand the lyrics?

to me it's like playing a guitar that is out of tune.

why do you need to understand the lyrics? vocals are merely just another instrument... they arent the centrepoint (which is exactly where they should be)

I understand that vocals don't have to be the centerpoint of a band, but when the lyrics are unintelligible, I don't see the point of even having vocals. Like I said, it's like having an out-of-tune guitar or a distorted amplifier.

:e5dunno:

Some like music with good lyrics, to cope with their lives, or remind them their not the only ones who feel that way. etc..

and theres ones without needing be..
brutal, music, good to pump you up, to go thru very stressful times.

i'd have to say Skeptic, it wouldn't be so bad, but the vocals sound kinda like a punk band, but screaming a little faster.. :S
and its ear-aching.

um, i did read all earlier posts (including the one you quoted yourself on), and i also watched the vid. this is a forum and you posted a vid with the understanding that we would watch and tell you what we think. i did so. me posting the thumbs up smiley is no different than what tech posted, i am in agreeance with him. what is the point of vocals if there is absolutely no understanding to them? i understand how they may mean something to YOU, but the audience or people listening gain or hear nothing from this. vocals are not an instrument in and of itself. the vocalist must have talent in recording their pitch, tone, and power to exemplify the meaning and message the song is trying to convey. your guitar playing is very good, however the mindless screaming ruins the song for me. sorry.
