Good stuff!!! Man for the life of me, and this is a good thing, I could not pigeonhole your music into a certain genre, etc. Like I said, that is a good thing because to me it doesn't sound like anyone else. I really liked those "Bad Man" and "Devil's Deal" songs but all were good. :)
 
Sounds really good! How did you guys record this? In a studio with an engineer or on your own?
My band just finished recoding in a studio, mixing and mastering our first EP. That was definitely a learning process of things to do and NOT do next time! lol. Just finishing up the artwork and then going to distribute it out...took us a year to get this far with it.
Just wanted to get your feedback on how you recorded because it sounds great! :rock:

Thanks for kind words.. Funny that you pick Bad Man/Devil's Deal, they are the 2 oldest songs on album. They were recorded separately from the rest of the album and they are the earliest material.

Thanks! Bad Man/Devil's Deal were recorded in a rehearsal studio space here in LA. I brought my laptop, audio interfaces, and mics and we recorded them live. I wasn't thrilled with how the raw drum tracks ended up sounding in that room.. it was too dead sounding

The rest of the songs were tracked in my house. Drumset was in the dining room and the guitar amps were in the mixing room. I was pleased with the drum tracks we got from my dining room (it's a weird shaped room with wood ceiling and tile floors)

Entire album was written, tracked, mixed, mastered, distributed by the band. I did the mixes
