Hey, guys :) I do vocals and play keys for Never the Strangers and we're doing what we can to break out and make our presence more felt in the music community and society in general.
If you're interested in hearing it, check out the lyric video a friend of mine made for the song:
Feedback regarding whatever aspect of the song is welcome, so long as it's constructive. You know the drill :P
Right now, we're reaching out to as many people for support and following. If you're on Facebook, just type in "Never the Strangers" and Like our page. Follow @ntstrangers on Twitter too, if you're there.
It would be an honor to have your support :) Thank you!

Nov 22, 2011 12:46 am The whole thing is really clear and polished. Great performances by everyone. But I hear a few mix issues, and they're slight.
The snare doesn't have enough weight in my opinion. And the vocals are a bit loud as compared to everything else. Also, the whole mix sounds a little hot, possibly due to over-limiting on the master. But none of those things by any stretch are a deal breaker. Keep it up dude!
Nov 22, 2011 06:09 am I agree with all your comments regarding the mix issues, especially the bits about the snare and vocals. We voiced out our concern to the engineer and he said that he wanted to showcase the vocals in the mix :P Hopefully, we get to look into the recording and tweak those things later on, though.
Thanks so much for the feedback, quickxkid! :)
