My band and I are in the midst of recording our first EP, and this is the first track that we have completed This song is a part 1 of 2 songs.
Just looking for some feedback! Cheers!

EDIT: here are the lyrics. Early in the morning. Light was shining brightly. There were bodies everywhere. I was out of sight, but they weren't out of sight.
Boom goes the gun, boom goes the gun, boom goes the gun.
Early in the morning. Light was shining brightly. There were bodies everywhere. I was out of sight, but they weren't out of sight.
Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom.

I like it. Too short though. 2:21 seems like just a tease. Good engineering and good sound. Nice drums.

yeah, it's only part 1 of 2 songs. thanks for the kind words about the engineering, this is home recording and i am the one doing most of the mixing so, it means a lot to me to hear that, thanks.

You need to work on your lyrics big time.

By the way, can you recommend any good books on sound engineering? I'm working on some home stuff, but I don't have my technical shit down and need to do some studying. Keep up the good work, man.

That's pretty damn good. I can taste the Tool in there. Among other influences. But the lyrics could use more lyrics, and maybe a few alterations. You should set up the structure of the song so that it's intro-> verse-> refrain-> verse-> bridge-> outro and what not. Like 80% of songs follow that structure and it would make it longer. Or do what ever you want. Just a bit of constructive criticism. I really like it though.

I don't really see anything in the lyrics that would make me think of the JFK assassination.

That's the problem. There's hundreds of books on the subject. I want like the audio engineer's bible, some reference that has it all.

i really don't think you can go wrong with trial and error. and then for the really tough tough stuff, you can ask questions to experts like on harmony central.com.
here check otu this thread, it has tons of studio "secrets": http://acapella.harmony-central.com/showthread.php?t=459652
i learned a ton of stuff just reading through that thread.
