Yeah the 8 track recorders good. Cost £400 quid, but luckily I wasn't the one who forked that out, haha. So are you a Muse tribute band? Or just influenced by them, I was confused :S
I really like the music, can't hear the vocals though. We've had a similar problem, when you make it yourself you know exactly what you're singing, hard to imagine others can't. lol.
Cheaper than paying £200 odd quid to record 2 songs every song often, hehe.
