Nice work!
I listened to "Finger like a Knife" a few times and couldn't really come up with much about it that I didn't like. It sounds tight, it sounds well mixed (on computer speakers at work, anyway), and it sounds like you really know what you're doing.
The one thought that I did have is that for a song like that with such epic lyrics and subject matter, I felt that it could even be another couple minutes longer and make the music a bit more progressive. Maybe try modulating the key higher to build intensity on a last time through the chorus or a last chorus that's similar but different. At 4 minutes I thought it actually clocked in a little short, the song has a feeling as if you're settling in for a longer ride - if that makes any sense. Maybe save the duet part for later in the song and make the build up to it in the first and second verse longer. Just some thoughts.
It sounds to me like you've already got a finished product though, so I'm not sure what kind of feedback you're looking for. At any rate, good job! Good luck with the album! |

Yeah at this point in time, we're considering it "finished" just because we have the album mixed, mastered, and ready to ship out. But by no means "finished" in the sense of not possibly coming back to it and altering it later on.
I suppose I was just looking for some sort of feedback like if it appeals to the average listener. Thank you for listening, much appreciated.
