Distractions, a full-length album release

[about:blank]

This is something I've been working on for about a year now. There were almost 40 songs made in the process, but about half of them were total shit, but I really liked the others, so I narrowed it down to a nice round 18.

This album is a bit less "experimental" than my last release, The Black Widow (which, by the way, I accidentally deleted, if ANYONE has a copy of that, PLEASE PM me or something), but I definitely think it's just as, if not more, interesting.

Anyway, here it is!

And of course, feedback, comments, and ego stroking are welcome.

EDIT: Okay, one of the songs in that rar was cut in half. You can get a fixed version of the album here (http://www.filefactory.com/file/af2007c/n/_Distractions_rar).

Interesting album

I can't really put my finger on what the music is lacking, but I can't figure what it's needing either. The styles match, which can't be said with many non-mainstream indie (is that an oxymoron?) albums. I can say that it has a very chill, and passive mood to it.

All and all, it's enjoyable, which is the most important part. Keep up the work. I don't think I'm very good at constructive or any kind of criticizing through.

non-mainstream indie (is that an oxymoron?)

Unfortunately, I don't think it is. Lately indie music has gotten very mainstream. Bands like 'MGMT' and 'Crystal Castles', both of which I felt really cool for liking back when nobody heard of them, have now seeped into the mainstream. It sucks, because now everyone can hear their music, and I can't be a pretentious asshole and act all eclectic by listing off bands that nobody's heard of, because now everyone's heard of them.

*sigh*

I don't suppose there is anyway you could break them up so I don't have to download a whole 100MB thing to listen to it.

Also, do you really want critiques of a finished album? Its not like either of us would realistically expect you to go all the back and redo it.
