not bad. intro needs to be shortened though. The drum mix is baaaaaaad. never let a guitarist produce a recording lol. things get pretty interesting around 3 minutes into the song but I feel the solo has waaaaay too much reverb on it. cut off the reverb totally. Give it a nice bright piercing lead tone to cut through the rhythm guitar. The outro has to go too. It just doesn't fit after a ripping solo like that.
It's difficult to cut parts and take criticism for your hard work. I know. I've played in bands myself and hated cutting songs up. The great thing is though nothing stops you from playing the cut out parts live. just keep it streamlined on the recordings. Like someone said earlier, the first 30 seconds are what make the song and determine whether someone is a fan or a foe. Keep that in mind and keep up the good work.
I think you should keep your day job, but not saying that to be a dick. Just because I know that many bands just don't make it, and if they do it's one hit wonder town for most of them. The music business just churns out so many new acts of this nature of music so there is someone new every month. unless you have a major cult following you probably won't make it. it's the harsh truth. however, if you do make it big, awesome, you deserve it and worked hard for it. I'm just saying it because it's just a fact that 99 percent of new signed bands don't last.
