15-17 years old kids (Emo Rock)
Here's a young band aged between 15 years old and 17 years old. The drummer is the youngest and the tightest in the band. He was incredible.. They came to record 2 demo songs that we end up re-writing together from scratch. It was their first experience in a recording studio. I produced, co-wrote, recorded, mixed and master the song. This project was done 4 or 5 months ago.. Feel free to comment!

Fall Again

Thanks
LT

Cute kids.

Sounds great, did not fall in love with vocals though - too anemic (is that how you put it in english; lack of cojones?) I would like to hear them with less washy reverb, more agressive compression, and maybe som distortion.

Great sound, sounds very very very late 90's Southeast US "emo-rock." Good sounds, man your room sounds amazing. I'm planning on going to McGill for University, I'll be up there in again in January. Montreal = Amazing city :-).
