thanks everyone deafeningone... cool tunes man! And congrats on the forwards! Are those tracks of your band, or are you a solo artist? Did you record them at home or a studio? They sound great!

deafeningone... death metal is definitely not my "typical" style but I had fun. My preferred style is more like a mixture of Sevendust and Disturbed with some Dark New Day and the Foo Fighters topped off with a hint of Joe Satriani lol I'll also ask what devin did, are you submitting to band listings as well? I know the latest listings that came out yesterday had some band listings that I think you guys would fit. Man, I miss being in a band!I too, hope something comes out of this for both of us.devin... I guess I need to post a disclaimer on all future posts that have any links to my music that says I can not be held responsible for any actions that a person takes as a direct result of listening to my tracks. Actions to include playing air guitar while driving, the destruction of your own personal property (B.Flat), or the desctruction of someone else's personal property! LOLI must admit, I'm not too familiar with Canadian geography. What part of the country are you located at?

If, in your heart, you feel the group would come back together and be enthusiastic about playing again in this "more recognized fashion", then you may wish to submit as a group.If you honestly felt the group cannot function well enough anymore to make it through the new challenges of the new arrangement, then the artistic side of yourself could suffer in the forced environment.If you were the key creative force in the group (and of course we all think we are/were LOL!), and you could replicate what you had with a new team, then you could consider that as well. Seeing as you are representing Deafening to us here via the Taxi boards, I'm going to guess you are an equal or majority owner of the copyright on the material...so could you perform it with another band? Would you want to?So, I think I've completely not answered your question...d'Oh! It still is a great question though...other opinions gang?P.S. Big Blue, I'm about an hour north of Buffalo, New York. In a small town (at least two dozen stoplights in our town now!) in that little piece of land between Lake Ontario and Lake Erie. I'm about an hour from the downtown of Toronto.
