Here's a couple of demo ideas to critique

I posted a solo up a while back from one of the tunes, but now we have two up on the myspace. They are still rough ideas but I wanted to get something up so perspective singers and basists could hear what we are all about. The band and song names are just working titles to call them something instead of "the one that is in drop D?". We didn't obsess over the performance or mix either. Anyway... First tune is a Les Paul straight into CH3 Vintage of the Roadster into a Mesa Traditional 4x12 (V30's). On the second one I used my Ibenhad 1527 in standard tuning, same amp rig with slightly different EQ'ing. I turned up the gain a bit for the solos. I'm pretty sure the first guitar parts in the first song are the Avenger, but I had the volume knob backed down on the guitar... That Avenger sounds fierce when going balls out. I'll have to use it for the next ones. Fire away!

Cool! The first one gave me the Badlands feeling, I quite enjoyed it. I dig the chugging groove in the second one, and good note choice on the solo. Now get some vocals on there!

Hey thanks for the compliments! I wish I would've gotten a better bass tone on that first one... well, I'm not much of a bassist anyway. I'm curious to hear that song with a real bass player.

I think playing the bluesy hard rock ala VH, UFO, old Aerosmith, Zep, etc.. is my favorite style. I'd really like the band to sound like that (trying to put a modern edge to it), but I'm having a hard time keeping the old school metal influences from coming out.
