I agree with Surreal; your improvement in playing and audio quality has been impressive. Keep it up.

This sounds way more fleshed

This sounds way more fleshed out than some of your earlier recordings. A lot of times when people have multiple guitar tracks things get out of sync and its really annoying.

Keep up the good work.

Excellent job, all the parts

Excellent job, all the parts together sounded very full, it filled out the spectrum very well.

Only thing I can really point out as a crit would be the lack of upstrokes in the power chord-y part, seemed a bit downstroke dominant but hey, really good job on the whole.

This is her song. Downstrokes

This is her song. Downstrokes are fine! Kirk hammet would play it the same :P

But why use downstrokes when alternative picking be far more suited? I'm merely providing constructive criticism to help avoid developing bad habits. And Kirk Hammett is a moron.

Dont take my post the wrong

Dont take my post the wrong way, I was really hammered when I wrote it anyway.

I think alternate picking can alter the sound of the powerchords and sometimes doesn't fit the song as well.... eg: Chrono Triggers Frog theme.

I checked some of your stuff by the way, I'm impressed.

He's got a good point. When you alternate pick with powerchords, it messes up what the chord really sounds like. But I pretty much always do alternate picking with the lead, and or bass :)

Well, I assume you'll use

Well, I assume you'll use upstrokes on power chords if it's like, SSE E SSE E? DUD D DUD D. Rather than strictly alternating, use downstrokes to emphasize the beats like that, and upstrokes on offbeats.

EDIT: Learn "The Trooper" by Iron Maiden, maybe.

I'd give some critique, but i'm pretty sure you're playin better than I could, so I can't really think of anything.
