So this is my first attempt at recording so it probably sucks but I'm curious for honest opinions on the sound. You're not going to hurt my feelings but at least be constructive with your slamming 
I programmed the drums with software, also something I've never done.. I'm not a drummer so I kind of just went with 'what sounded good.' I realize it is missing some bass because I don't really have a good way to record bass. I'm going to double track the guitars or try to boost the bass in the EQ process. This is completely dry with no effects, direct mic on the cabinet... one take
This is a snippet from a song I wrote last week called the phoenix. It's about 1/3rd of it, I just kind of wanted to get some ideas on paper so to speak.. and I needed to teach myself how to do all this crap so here is the result.
