American Baby *full band*

Unread post by SockCymbal » Tue Oct 25, 2005 12:49 am

Ok, so just me isn't a full band, but all the instruments comprise a full band.
Very easy song, the only thing that needs to be really considered is timing...

forgot to add that since I don't really sing, during the chorus i tried a little guitar solo

Pretty good, add lyrics and you'll have a good cover. I like the solo over the chorus, gives it like a latin feel.

Awesome, but it sounds real hollow. Try using different tones for the guitar/violin. the drums are awful harsh too. but it was nice and solid.

i agree, it does sound really hollow. I'm using pretty shitty equipment now.

what do you mean the drums sound harsh? too loud? snare too high? what?

that was so good I listened to it 3 times

That would be an awsome, awsome cover if you did the whole song with vocals.

the drums were too loud, the snare especially. otherwise very good, i agree with kahn about the solo adding a latin flavor, really cool.
