gambatak - why? i dun play alot most of the time. and if u listen to the song it doesn't need anything complex, it needs to be driving and tight. u need to know when to pull your punches. but tht said i've never played alot of complex stuff

P.S. I tuned the toms. First time I ever done it. Is it ok? Lol.
thanks soft.
yah i agree with the syncopation bit, some parts were alittle loose.
with the toms tunning i dunno man, some people like to play under the band and not stand out. some drummers like their tunnings abit higher so they "sit" on top. diff ways of approaching it i guess, but ur insights are valid.
thanks again
hey dude not bad but i think can be tighter, quite a few parts where you stumbled slightly. it comes out quite obvious on the recording but work at it it's good! i suggest more punch to the bass drum though, these sort of songs need more low end from your kit.
hey but take heart! i love your guitarist i think your band is great! and the recording quality is just wow. but yeah. haha if you can mix it a bit more...
