I write lyrics and record an album once a year with friends. Please check out a few songs from the album we recorded this week. Thanks!

Yo Frank! This is the thihg you did with Jimmy Danger, right?

Nice job. I like the unrapped quality, in spite of your speaking instead of singing. Your lyric is lost in effects on "Go With The Flow." I'm sure that if I had the words in front of me, it would make perfect sense, though.

Jimmy did you justice, man. You have good lyrics, but you need a singer.

You must have had a great time doing these recordings.

Keep at it.

I love the guitars and the music in general.

I know you sang on this, but I just cant dig it.
Im with Philby get yourself a real singer to do the music some justice. It sounds like some badd ass rythym tracks that you just superimposed your vocals on without a lot of thought for what the finished product would be.

Im sure there are people that would get into this, but the vocals sound like a Bad Karoake night to me.
Maybe that was your intention, I just cant see this getting any commercial airplay.

If you are just doing these albums for personal reasons, it doesnt really matter what I think of it, so dont let me discourage you in any way.

I originally couldnt stand Devo and now really like them, so your approach might grow on me. I have the same problem I write a lot of songs and record them, I just dont have a very catchy voice.

Sorry, good luck.

Thanks Phil and JW, I do this just for fun but appreciate your advice. Rock on!
