“Nice vibe going on here, good old guitar work. Some nice riffs and melodies and the guitars are spread nice and wide. Vocal style suits the track well, and all the bits and pieces are in the right place.”
“We love the rich and feeling vocals…keep up the good work!”
“This one had a real energy about it and of course, for us, the vocals are what stood out the most. However, you've really created a vibrant and energetic track too. Keep it up!”
“Really nice track! Love the rhythm and energy. Very catchy and easy to listen to. We will share it on our social media. Looking forward to hearing more from you!”
“Some decent riffs and a great intro here—a very accessible indie track that a lot can get behind and some great vocals.” https://www.mixcloud.com/kevin-mann3/uki-episode-341/
“We enjoyed how energetic this song is and the grittier parts of the vocals…we look forward to hearing more from you in the future!”
“I love the vibes and energy on this track! We are going to post this on the blog as soon as we can! Thanks a lot for this! Keep it going!”
“I like the combination of melody and grit on this track. There’s a dark vibe in the verse that’s driven by the guitar scale, shifting to a more upbeat feel in the chorus. The bass line is great and provides a solid groove that underpins the rest of the instrumental.”
“Hi guys, thanks for sharing your music! The leading riff of this track is brilliant, simple but addictive, and there's a certain humility to the vocal lead that reminds me of some of the indie rock legends of the early noughties. Your style is great, the songwriting really interesting, the performance impassioned and no doubt immense at a live show.”
Thanks for sending us your track. Sounds good, it´s cool. We are going to add it to the Spotify playlist called All Monkey Gone to Heaven, for our friends and followers to listen to for a month.
