That was really good for a practice session, but I have a few tips.

First off, try recording the instruments seperately, then mix them together with an editing program. Videotape yourselves playing it, and sync that with the edited audio. I guess that only applies for your final version of the song.

I noticed that your guitarist is off timing in a lot of parts, (verse, intro, solo). Practice makes perfect :P

The drumming was good, but I felt that some parts were improvised poorly.

[mellitacas]

thank you very much for your time! I wish all our friends would comment like you did... :)

We just want to record our jamming sessions, nothing fancy...

I'm normally pretty picky about covers from my favorite band but this isn't bad, keep it up!

[mellitacas]

thanks!

To bad you don't have a lead guitarist :/ but awesome cover :D

@NickNumber0 im sure u mean a floyd rose...not a floating...Strats are floating, Les Pauls are fixed. the way to drop ur guitar down is lower ur strings about a 1/4 turn and then adjust spring claw...repeat this process until u get to u r desired tuning, but make sure u tighten the tension to keep the bridge from sinking into the floyd recessed cavity...i have an Ibanez RG350DX and a Jackson Rhoads V...i am constantly changing tunings with them

[KevinShredsGuitar]

well thats not good lol, new guitar time :P

@KevinShredsGuitar

If you haven't noticed, the guitar used is an Ibanez RGT-42.

It uses a floating tremolo, which is very hard to tune down to Drop C. The most I can get without lifting the bridge too much is Drop D.

When I buy a guitar with a fixed bridge, I will certainly tune down, as the biggest problem is that it forces the singer to tune up.
