Wow, these songs are great. I still think Don't Start is the best one yet. They are all amazing though. The guitar is just awesome in them. Especially in 'the Alchemist'
I now realize wwhy I missed emtee so much.
It's nice to hear stuff from Jamie as well

Hmm.. The Alchemist's quite interesting, Beautiful Forever's okay, Don't Start's still the best I think though.

I dunno. I like the guitar better in the alchemist, but beautiful forever has a better vibe and flows better.

I definately hear that in the lower parts of The Alchemist.
But, Jay doesn't scream, and has a much more beautiful voice and hits much higher notes, with a very good falsetto.

Official critique:
Very good stuff. I think I (along with most others) like Don't Start the best. Beautiful Forever and The Alchemist are also amazing tracks, though. BF has a great flow to it, and just sounds all around, well, beautiful. The Alchemist was an unexpected, but welcome sound. It's good to hear that Jay isn't an all-falsetto singer. The guitar in this track is awesome (what's new? haha).
I must say, I'm extremely impressed with this new stuff.
Except, of course, for the fadeouts!

Promo pics? There probably won't be a band.

The bassist with mike is also the bassist in the fly project, the band that mike produces. Their stuff sounds good too from what I've heard of it.

Does NO ONE else find Jay's voice in Beautiful Forever to be kind of..... oh I don't know... annoying, and maybe, a little bad, in certain places? Please don't hurt me, lol, I'm just asking.
