Great fucking album! NP: Carnage- "Dark Recollections" The remaster with the demos

Those are some really nice sketches! as you have recommended, I listened to them via headphones. It sounds awesome! very nice playing, you are very talented! I`m not big on constructive criticism, especially since my own recordings leave much to be desired. I`m no expert. However, as someone that also uses a cheap guitar myself (and cannot afford high end equipment), I will recommend doing two things which can improve the quality itself. I don`t know if your using a VST for the guitars themselves, but if your not, then you should. When it comes to sketches, its a good alternative to record guitars for people with a tight budget. And if you are using something like lets say Amplitube or guitar Rig, I will strongly recommend to avoid using presets, and instead create your own Rack. It will be much easier to control the sounds that way, to "open" it up. It could improve the quality.

'Live in Leipzig' has the best versions of 'Carnage', 'Freezing Moon' and 'Pure Fucking Armageddon'. It's just amazing and easily the best live album with Dead. It's the last of the three show run (Jessheim, Sarpsborg and Leipzig), and I think the band were finally starting to shine. Pity it didn't carry through because I can only imagine how incredible 'De Mysteriis' would have been with Dead. NP: Eluveitie - 'Ategnatos' Oh do behave!

October Tide - Rain Without End Katatonia - Dance Of December Souls

You've got some talent there bud! Have to say the 3rd one was my favourite, but they were all good. If you can you should definitely invest in getting better recording equipment, you've got some great potential!

I just brought some paintings over to a gallery in Worcester for a group show. Naturally the resolution to a minor but crucial issue holding one of them back only became clear this morning; and of course, as I wrapped things up at the last minute, I realized that that little bit of detail work had opened up new possibilities, and that far from being "done", this painting could have several hours left on it -- hours that I can't afford to spend, hours that I no longer have. Still, knowing everything is safely in the space takes a weight off my mind. Still on my mind: the song we worked on at rehearsal last night, hanging the painting show on Wednesday, potentially practicing Thursday with a keyboard player who's going to do a guest spot with us, the opening reception Saturday, the sketch work I need to do this week, laundry, dishes, dinner, the difficult choice between beer and wine on this rainy spring evening, my son the nutcase.
