A tele in drop A#? What is the world coming to? Sounds good, though, I like it.

Really like the clean tone. Distorted is a bit fuzzy and scooped for my tastes though. A for Andromeda is really catchy, needs more manly vocals in the chorus with distorted guitars though for me to really like it  :P

Sounds really good Joe! I love the clean tone its very clear and deep. I agree with others that the distortion may be a bit too scooped but good tone nonetheless. I would have the rhythm guitar like that and the lead a bit more cutting.

Got my VH100R today  :twisted:  :twisted:
gotta say thanks to you and maliciousteve.

It's fecking awesome :twisted:  :lol:

Very cool.

If you are not familiar with them, you should check out NYC natives VEXT. I think you will find a lot of similarities between your band and them.

thanks for all the great comments. My guitar is the tinkly ones at the intro of A for Andromeda, sam's in the deeper tele sound. I will check out VEXT ben.

Thanks all, good to hear some appreciation for all my BKPs  and the VH100R  :lol:  COOL!

and if anyone wondered what i sound like, its my deep vocal at the start, and the screamy bit in the middle (whisper is silent now - that bit).

CHEERS!

When we have finished a track called relentless, you guys should perk up, its a bit evil, another drop A# one. Good fun.

wow you guys rock - really like your sound. Very unique aswell - and these days it's very difficult to find something that sounds "unique" whilst not being "SH1T"
