Nice work dude, and welcome to the forum!

Good solid thrashing, some of the riffs are completely amazing aswell, production sounds pretty damn good for a first recording! Well done!

i though you all sound pretty good, nothing too original but that could be said about loads of thrash bands, mine included, but that familiar sound is what we like. I particularly liked the drum sound and playing too.

i listened to three of your tracks, rider in black was a more interesting song than the first two imo, something about the rythm of the vocals on the first two is a bit too cliched imo, but if it is good for evile then i guess that is what you are trying to create.

If you can pull that off live I'd deffo come to see you if you get any gigs in my neck of the woods. So yea good metal and above average for myspace.

Just out of interest, can i ask you how much studio time and cost it took to record the tracks ?

sure, it was 3 days recording and 1 full day mastering (our guy did a lot while he went a long) at £220 per day so about £1000 between the 5 of us.
The pressing was a lot to but off the top of my head cat remember how much

thanks for your comments! where might your neck of the woods be? if your in the london area and arn't going to evile were playing the gaff on sunday 24th of jan.
were going to be playing a lot this year so I'm sure we will be around sometime, I think we have quite a strong live show so yeah, hopefully you can check us out
