I wonder how you get rid of the pick sound...that is what I wonder.

Well my buddy kinda wanted that. Its called "Strong Strung Melody"

I agree though. I had a total of four guitar tracks. Thats probably why the picking is so predominant.

Any other things i should look at?

Thanks for your input!!

Me personally, I don't like gratuitous cussing so much, but the recording signal was real good and clear, you may want to develop a better structure lyrically, that or get used to hearing "you suck" on a more regular basis. Same thing for anyone with a small recording area, bass traps are helpful. They(your songs) get bottom heavy and lose clarity Wink

I like the pick noise.
I also like your style.

You're like a stoned Jack Black.

Lol, I just noticed the F*ck Her Gently cover.

That Stankay Girl song is just wrong. I haven't eaten for hours and hours and I don't want to now...

haha i didnt even remember that the song was on there haha. We make silly songs for fun and these guys get pretty interesting haha. I just like recording anyone to learn more about it. Thats the only way to get better so i let anyone record what they want.

I noticed that they are bottom heavy. I just treated my room a few days ago so ill be able to track some stuff to see how it sounds. After the treatment it sounds... Dead haha. Which is good.

Thanks for everyones input! Anything else you can say about it would help a lot
thanks a million

yeah, tenacious d covers are rock'n...

nothing compared to the ganster's paradise acapella.

that's classic.

i also really like stereo spacing in strong stung melody.
