Song: The Promise – Rock Mix
Reviewer: Bob Birthisel
Positive Comments: Very nice Pop/Rock song once it gets into the meat of things. I like the chord progression a ton, as well as the audio dynamics and breaks. Vocal is right on point and the self-harmony fits well.
Constructive Comments: Hard for me to get past the fake drums and almost-hidden bass to open the track. Once it gets into gear it’s exceptional. For me there was too much distortion on the opening bars – which changed 100% once the sweet-sounding guitar kicked in. Maybe because I’m a 20+ year pro drummer, but I’d stick with full drums throughout and just alter the dynamics of the playing to maintain consistency.
