Ok, since you put it out i hope you grown some hard skin to accept 'opinions'.

I listen to it once so far during work. First half i just stared at screen and listen focused. Second half i did some work and it was background sound. Not sure if problems with mix/editing but few songs were wraped up with sudden cut. Also i am wondering is there some sort of plan/idea/concept for this album or songs are put in random order. Also if you name last song Outro, maybe first song - Intro. And cover always reminds me of Manowar.
Now about the main thing - music. Few times i had this feeling 'i heard this somewhere, not sure where'. Which is not necessary bad thing, because i listen to good stuff only :mjump: Drums are programmed right ? I don't like them :punish: No, seriously in most of the songs they sound ok and in harmony with guitar. But there is few that they distinguish themselves out in a way that i don't like (will have to listen again to name the songs). Overall all songs are ok, but i don't get the full picture what is demo about. Individualy most of the songs have start and finish and content in betwee, but what about whole album? I imagine with some sick fantasy or under drug influence one could assing songs to 12 months or 12 apostals + into/outro + bonus tracks with/without vocals.

TL;DR progress is good. You keep playing and we will keep listening.

Hey man, thanks a ton for your input. Yeah, my drums suck. Really bad. I honestly just have no ear for drums, so it's mainly a metronome for my guitar. I need to get in touch with some drummers. Also, that Album has a song on there that I regret putting on. A string is out of key and it sounds hilariously bad. No clue how I missed it.

And I love to make transitions, but with bad drums, have absurd changups is kinda bad.
