I hope you’re not the singer because the singer has no charisma.

Tristan is the drummer, as far as I can see on the band page.

This shows no promise whatsoever.

So it's not unassailable? Oh, damn.

Alright few critques

1) Get some real instruments for god's sake the midi sounds like absolute **** on this track and this coming from someone who loves sequencer and midi music

2) the structure of the song really goes nowhere, and that repetition of the chord and drum hits on the 4, 1!!! of every measure is grating to say the least

3) there's really only a basic idea not a fully imagined piece and/or song, sounds more like the soundtrack to some weird avant-garde animation channel on youtube than something like an actual track

4) i cannot for the life of me pin down what tone you're going for, at first it straight up sounds like the intro to a terrible sitcom, but as the track goes on it sounds like you're going for some epic 90's post rock feeling, however the chords just do not align with that at all.

all in all this feels like a really rough demo that you could probably make into an actual track, but to leave this as the finished product is not the avenue i would take.

i strongly disagree with Machine

for me it sounds like a SNES platformer soundtrack influenced tune and i can see it going perfectly in the background of some Castlevania-esque 80s throwback game.

it's kind of a niche sound so maybe if you didn't grow up on it it wouldn't mean much but it's pretty cool imo for what it's worth. i do agree that it's a little rough around the edges and could be fleshed out a little more, but irregardless i like the sound you're going for. though i believe i've told you this already in regards to past music you've posted.

The most frequently repeated remark about it is that "there is no such word." There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.

Are you like this when you use words like ain't in your essays?
