So I'm in a ska band..

[OMGBEARS]

Named The Skashank Redemption. I've finally received the individual tracks we've been recording over the past two weeks. I've also told you all that I would eventually post what my band sounds like.

Well, here are two unmastered, and unEQ'd recordings. I'd appreciate your feedback as if there are any important issues, we'll make sure they're fixed in the mastering.

[acolyte_to_jippity]

not bad at all!

vocals are slightly flat, but otherwise it sounds very much like goldfinger

[Jeimuzu]

Sounds upbeat.. I like it.

Feels like it's more focused on the instruments than the vocal aspect of it. Which I like instrumentals better anyways.

[Andrew_Pavlik]

I like it, goldfingery + a little five iron frenzy.

I agree with aco, the vocals are a little flat, he needs to either be louder(via amp or sound board) or add some harmony in there with other people.

[OMGBEARS]

Yeah, I completely agree about the vocals. They are going to be re-recorded before all is said and done. I dig Goldfinger and Five Iron Frenzy, so that's not bad! We've recorded about 8 tracks so far. I'm not actually doing the mastering, I just brushed up some things when I compiled the tracks into a single song. The finish product should be much better lol.

Thanks for the good comments thus far.

[OMGBEARS]

So it's been a long time since I've updated!

These videos are from a recent live show (on the 1st of July, in fact). The quality isn't too bad so I decided to throw them up online. The first video is one of our originals that I wrote- "Welder By Day" and the second is Catch 22/Streetlight's "Keasbey Nights"

Welder By Day-

P.S. Our next shows are July 29th in Louisville, KY and July 30th in Lexington, KY. I'll put whoever from IBIS that wants to come out on the guest list to keep you from paying the $5 cover ;).
