Humn...are you using a sequencer or are you recording a live performance?

I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

Drums were sequenced. Synth was recorded through my POD XTL digitally with my keytar, and guitar was digital with the XTL as well.

Yeah, I could tell. Something to work on is locking in with your performance. Quite frequently you were off-tempo or the accents were misplaced with the riffs. I don't really know how to go about improving your rhythm other than playing to a metronome a lot.

1. Overall, simple, but not bad.
2. A bit redundant for my liking.
3. I didn't think the guitar at the two minute mark fit with the rest of the song initially, but it was better once the synth came back in.
4. I also agree with Pol that you were off-tempo occasionally.

Thanks for the criticism! I appriciate it! Tempo is hard. especially when you have to individually record parts. but thank you all for watching and advice :)

My grandfather has been playing guitar and bass for 40+ years (20 with bands), and what he typically does is record one part at a time on a multi-track recorder and then he plays the new part along with the other ones to keep them in sync.  I don't know if that will help you, but it definitely takes practice.  Keep at it, and I'm glad you are able to take advice.  It shows a lot about your character.  Keep up the hard 'work,' although I'm sure it's fun!
