I listened to your first track.

It's very good! Nice work.

However, it still lacks the polishing I think you are looking for. Keep in mind that the tweeking needed I am talking about is something that most people on the planet would not even be able to hear - their brains are not developed enough as a musician. As a musician, the better you get and the more complex the music you are capable of, the more your ears (brain) are able to hear. Well that's my opinion.

Let's start with the vocals. It's certainly very passable --- however there are some notes sung out of tune there. Fix it.... and not with auto-tune.

The vocals, lead guitar and guitar are not quite in balance with each other. I'm a classical musician/composer not an engineer but I do know when something is off. This lack of balance results in a track that is not as exciting to listen too.

I'm sure some of the golden eared engineers will chime in and give you more specific audio fixes.

Personally, I would focus on the music and let an experienced engineer tweak for you. You have probably listened to those tracks 500+ times - you are too close to it now. Hire a new set of ears who is experienced.

You are 95% there ---- great work!

All the best to you.
