  • hey guys,

    just offering a little constructive critisism, which has nothing to do with this video, You're really good by the way. I was just checking out your myspace and my only beef is you guys ARE the black keys. maybe its just me, but it sounds like your trying a bit too hard to sound like them. Ahh i went through the same stage with my band (massive black keys fan too)

    By the way, if you dig the keys check out a band called the mess hall, raw edgy garage blues.

    PEACE

  • Thanks dude, yea the songs we have up now are relatively old compared to the new stuff we have. We're in the process of recording all our new stuff, so we should have it up in a few weeks. It is a lot different from our older songs.

  • I see that you use fiberskin heads for resonance but what are your batter heads? that kit sounds good.

  • My batter heads are also fiberskin, at least for the toms and the bass drum. The snare has a regular coated head on it. If you get a chance, get some "tightscrew" tension rods for your drums. I have these on there and have NEVER had to tune my toms, because they never get loose as I play them.

  • Your cover was easily the best Black Keys cover I've heard in a while! Good job!
