Lewis,
Thanks for sharing. Releasing something to the world is a huge step, so congrats on that.
I share your ‘procrastination’ issue, and can totally relate to your desire to close the book lest you fiddle forever.
Assuming this is a ‘one man band,’ I like what I hear!
The writing and arranging reminds me of mid-90s Fates Warning.
The mix is ‘good,’ triggered drums aren’t really my thing, but I’m a dinosaur and fully accept that they are here to stay. I like the guitar work (done great leads) and the keys/synths are a nice touch.
The vocals are good and fit. There’s a little growl there, but you’re singing for the most part, and I think your voice is distinct...kinda reminds me of a 90’s alt-rock vocal approach mixed with a more traditional metal sound.
The third track (with the piano intro) was my favorite, but it’s all good, man.
Cheers
