This is a song I just recorded with my band "Charlie Da Silva"
For those who cant understand Spanish, the song is about a mining project that will poison drinkable water sources for several native communities here in Chile.
We want to use our music to rise our voice against international corporations responsible of the destruction of our environment.
I look forward for your opinion.

I really don't like the intro to this track, especially the falsetto vocals at the start. When it gets going "for real" at 0:58 it totally rocks!
I'm not sure about the two voices between 3:11 and 3:37- they sound muddled and are way too near the front of the mix, for my liking. I think I get what you're trying to do with the end vocals, but don't think that quite works with two voices either. Maybe just try it with one.
The recording is raw, with a live and dynamic feel to it, but the balance is pretty good.
Although I've knocked this in a couple of areas, I still think the overall song is pretty good. So keep it up!

This is a great rock song!
I can clearly imagine how a studio production of this would sound - it will kick ass big time. It is therefore that I do understand the intro, though I do think that it needs some rework.
Also, the way it is now, raw and all, works well aswell. Like Jiminuk says, the balance is pretty good.
I think the double vocals are okay, albeit a bit too much to the front and sharp on the ears (painful frequencies, listening through headphones).
Yea, interesting, definately! Let's hear some more of you guys!

Well have to work on that

agree and disagree....
I agree with jiminuk about the falsetto at the start. It's a little grating on the ears for me and might make people want to stop listening too early.
I think the two voices later on convey emotion that is important to your song and its message. It does sound raw, but I like that.
I dig music that has a purpose and message behind it. What better way to protest something that with a song about it? Too often we write songs about a girl or a bad day or something that matters to us, but in the grand scheme of things is miniscule but for the common thread of human feelings to which the listener can relate. I want to hear lyrics that make me want to change the world or myself.

Igual esta piola su cancion... no se...no es mi estilo, pero igual la lleba. Tiene sus buenos arreglos vocales. Algo de Chancho en Piedra q es bueno... la calidad igual deja que desear, pero eso nos pasa a todos.
Arto freak las letras...

at first i thought this falsetto-intro is crap but i actually like it more than the rest of this rock thing- its well balanced and the drums really fit in with the guitar part
Hey man this track has the energy a real rock song needs. The only thing I'm not crazy about is the disco Hi hat on the verse. It sounds like the band gets much looser there - I think the tempo is too quick to play the beat perfectly tight. Otherwise this sucker rocks. It's screaming for a more involved solo.
