Song: First Time
Very interesting opening. Unusual, which is always good. Nice steady guitars, interesting lyrics, very good vocal performance. Reminds me a bit of Talking heads stuff.
Nice indeed.
I´d love to hear a break where you´d go back to the opening sequence.
Good and solid work here!

This had some nice changes in it and you did not overdo it, I enjoyed the overall sound of this and the mood that I had while listening. Your sound and mixing was well done, thank you, Gary

Song: Love Is The New Black
This is a fairly standard song you've written here. I mean, it's the type of song where the listener knows how it's going to go. It never really jumps out and surprises, but it doesn't need to, since its a well-written tune. Definitely poppier than other bands I've heard on Soundclick, but that isn't overtly a bad thing. It sort of just comes and goes. I did really like the guitar solo, but I thought that it was mixed too quietly. The rest of the music was good, but nothing to really shout about. Lyrically, I considered this pretty standard, though the chorus lyric "Love is the new black, I'm proud to wear it," is admittedly pretty clever in its own way.
There's not much that I can say about this other than it's sort of a soul-healing song, the kind that makes you feel good inside. And in the world of Indie rock, where that seems to be a fairly sought outcome, this comes out ahead. 4/5

Glenn A. Baker's Essay on this modern empire:
"Time is irrelevant, it's not Linear", so wails Bono on U2's latest offering "No Line on the Horizon". Well Bono, you are partially right. Time is not linear, but it is relevant.
Cyndi Lauper definitely thought so. Mick Jagger had time on his side. And Bob Dylan certainly felt the times of change. Cher has tried, repeatedly, to turn it back. Time is relevant, as Johnny Depp can attest. But what does time and Depp - more specifically, 21 Jump Street - have to do with this modern empire I hear you ask? Let me explain.
Forgetting about his ill-fated movie 'Nick of Time', Depp also saw time as being important in episode 16 of series 2 of the Canadian based and produced 21 Jump Street: the now infamous "Orphesus 3.3" episode. Officer Tom Hanson, played by a pre-Sleepy Hollow, pre-Pirates of the Caribbean, pre-Tim Burton love-child Mr Depp, lost the only true love of his life. In a cruel twist of fate, Hanson and his girlfriend Amy, st
Yo guys! love this track, just keeps getting better, had to drop by for another time around, ! see ya!
