Megolamania by Black Sabbath would have been much better.

Teenagers really don't need to get into a song with lyrics like 'Why doesn't everybody leave me alone?' and 'SUCK ME!' Though, I suppose if they're going to anyway, it might as well be Sabbath.

These guys are exactly what I would expect from a "high school" band. In other words, besides their probable potential, they suck nuts now.

I stopped it when the singer came up. Sounded terrible.
Plus, when they all came in, it sounded very off. But I've never listened to anything from Incubus, so I could be wrong.

the drummer was pretty bad at times. and some intonation problems with the lead guitar. if i were the lead i probably woulda had a delay & chorused guitar sound or reverbed. it just doesnt sound too great completely clean. the phaser/flange thing was too overdone. the solo was pretty weak. the dynamic level with the guitars was pretty weak as well.
but it sounded like you had fun with what you played. that is the overall good thing about ur performance good stage presence, the crowd ate u up. just work on the licks and think like a listener. just some helpfull tips. you should be the biggest critic to ur playing. just keep workin at it

it was not my performance but a good review from you guys.They were playing for the sake of having fun and does not take technicallity into consideration as what we most do.Somehow or another, they are getting very famous among the society of my college which i may consider them to be very overrated.its very rare to find peeps at my college to have the same opinion of mine.thus this thread is created because i think you guys can judge well.

I've come to realize that, at least in my community, there are not alot of people who play guitar or drums and so on, and those same people go all "Ooh" and "ahh" over every "artist" who plays an instrument, no matter how mediocre their playing is. Not saying these people are stupid and don't know shit, but they wouldn't know the "music technicality" difference between, say, Slipknot and Cannibal Corpse. They would hear just heavy guitar playing and fast drumming. They wouldn't be able to point out the complexity used in Cannibal Corpse's riffs and solos that Slipknot lacks. They would be like "WOW! Hardcore!"
Not just kids, but more so adults even. My dad still thinks Elvis is like the most fucking amazing thing since sliced bread. He would not be able to tell the difference between Fallout Boy and Opeth, or Black Sabbath and DragonForce. Granted, he's a little senile (or so I choose to believe. haha), but if someone doesn't expose themselves to a variety of music, they will just live in ignorance.
It's kind of like with me and rap. I don't listen to it. All sounds the same to me. Why? I don't expose myself, so whenever I hear some dude's car booming some rap music, I won't know who he's listening to.

well, most people unfamilliar with something see someone who has atleast some knowledge on that subject as some crazy 1337 wizzard.
Just as a lot of people are going to drool all over the place if someone plays a 3 chord punk song, so will people think you are a amazing hacker if you just show them how to use the internet for the first time.
