Not my kind of music, at all, I guess. Sounds like a mixture of mumbling, unintelligible noise, with a very faint melody that comes around now and again.

If I had any idea how to critique music, I'd try to offer some constructive feedback

suburban paradise - I liked the beat and music but I didn't care for the voice.
s.a.s. - this was sung too fast to be enjoyable or understandable.
tits mcgee - this was sung too fast to be enjoyable or understandable.

* I think I've said it before,the band plays well but the lead singer sucks.

I don't know its just too jumpy for my taste... But yeah I noticed the other voice on s.a.s. which seemed fine but the main vocalist was... not marilyn manson or SOAD but somewhere weirdly in between... Maybe if he tried to carry a tune more and by that I mean hold a tone instead of having his voice fly around all the time... I think I just said the same thing 3 times but yeah and make the vocals louder... couldn't here them

Punk is an insanely boring genre, but this is not the absolutely worst I have heard.

Hey, it's every other local punk band I've ever heard! For those of you don't know, the scratchy/crappy vocals that you normally can't understand is pretty much how punk is.

Actually, though, this is stuff is decent and it's kind of growing on me. I enjoyed Tits McGee, which was pretty solid musically, even if I could only understand a few words. The other songs aren't quite as enjoyable, but they're rough cuts.

Its pretty good, except for two big flaws. first, as mentioned by others, the singing is pretty aufull. second of all, its been recorded badly, probably due to lack of good equipment, so not only the sound qualitys bad, but all the instruments and the vocals are different volumes. And, to be honest its not realy my type of music. I think the third song was the best, although the voice sounded a bit like an escaped mental patient being chased by men in white suits. probably because of recording equipment. bear in mind i'm only pointing out the negative points.

6/10.

Nearly all punk sounds the same. It is just simple powerchord riffs in "major" (dur. OK, some in minor aswell) with crappy vocals. And if you want to say that the text is important, I have to disappoint you... I can't listen to a lot of text when there is music. Even in punk, the music catches my mind more.

If you wonder what music I listen to "besides of punk".. It's a lot. In the rock/metal genres I listen to Emperor, Satyricon, Immortal, Meshuggah and Burzum (haha, no "rock". ). They are all Black or Death metal bands (Meshuggah.. I am not sure). I know a lot of people don't like Black and Death metal because of the vocals, and because it is generally too hard and/or heavy, but these bands are like 100 times more advanced than popular music (or punk), and they have more "feelings" too. I like classical music aswell, Bach, Mozart, Mendelsohn, Grieg, Stravinsky, Sæverud, John Williams (film music composer. Jurassic park etc.) and some modern norwegian composers.

I like other music styles too, but instead of posting endless lists here, I can tell you my general "rule" for liking art, if I manage to translate it well: In all forms of art, I like the works that the artist has been working to create (like me with A-Z. ), and that are either advanced, beautiful or with "mood" and expression.

I liked it, though I couldn't hear the vocals all that well. Fast-paced, sort of catchy, and bad in the pleasant way that punk music is. It seems like it'd be cool to see live.

By the way, this is only feedback for S.A.S., the one that was available for download. I didn't bother with the streaming ones because I hate repeatedly having 5 seconds of music followed by 15 seconds of loading.

It sounds like the music I would enjoy in a local punk club, but I would never listen to it at home. It doesn't have the annoying whiny vocals, but otherwise it sounds like generic pop-punk to me.
